HP Compaq DC7900

Above average application performance

Difficult to upgrade

The dc7900 is a powerhouse machine that comes saddled with a number of caveats.

The only problem I've had is with audio through the DP-HDMI adapter, however after doing a Google search I found that this is an ongoing issue with the Display Port. Also no sound through the audio out port on back but headphones do work... I'll figure...

Fits in the space under our TV. Not hard to install a low profile video card to plug it into the TV. Works great as a Pandora music, Netflix and movie machine. That's all my wife and I wanted this box for

Does not mention that these boxes have a 240W power supply. I added a low profile card that required 300W(didn't think ahead to make sure this would have worked[who would have thought the psu would be that low on the scale]). The power supply gave out...
