HP Pavilion Elite h8-1124

 

It comes with quite a bit of pre-installed software, which is surprising for a Best Buy system (we'd rather see a pre-installed e-commerce app like the Best Buy PC app, then install nothing else but the hardware drivers and a few utilities). On the...

Quick quad-core processor. HDMI and DisplayPort. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Some 3D gaming ability

No USB 3.0. Bloatware. Lower powered 300W Power supply limits expansion

The HP Pavilion HPE h8-1124 is a power users machine, but limited expansion and a lot of bloatware hold this desktop back from the highest overall scores.

HP Pavilion Elite h8-1050

 

The HP Pavilion Elite h8-1050 is a media desktop decked out with all the right components to satisfy power users. Blu-ray, TV tuner, and a powerful hardware tag team made up of an Intel Core i7 processor and AMD discrete graphics card is just the tip...

Intel Core i7 processor and AMD graphics make for a powerful hardware combination on the gaming grid or while working with media. USB 3.0, Blu-ray, and TV Tuner are present. Wi-Fi built-in. Huge 1.5TB hard drive. Included IR remote helps flip through...

Hard drive spins at a slower 5,400rpm than other desktops at this price. Bloatware

For power users in search of a desktop PC that does multimedia content creation (i.e. photos and videos) as well as some mid-range gaming, the HP Pavilion Elite h8-1050 will oblige.

Great Computer

 

Not only does this computer look fantastic, it preforms without a flaw. The speed is way better than i expected. I've got it hooked up to a hp monitor and a 32" sony hd tv, it switches back and forth very easy. I couldn't be happier, i've had many...

Perfect entry level gaming PC!

 

I opened this up and in less than an hour I was playing minecraft with a 256x texture pack, all the graphics set to the highest possible, at around 200fps. I bought this to see what the big deal was about discrete graphics cards, and let me say, I get...

Fast, Easy, Powerful, and nice to look at

A bit of bloatware, but that is to be expected from HP

Consumer review by:

This IS your father's HP

 

Could have been a sweet deal. Everything you'd need for basic productivity was in the box (except for the lack of a single USB 3 outlet); turned out, I actually got more service out of shipping box than the PC. PC arrived with a duff CD-DVD burner....

Second Failure - Warranty Not Honored - Home support Not Honored

 

Problem occurred with a similar model an HP Desktop Computer model HPE-450t. Graphics failure (screen goes black) second time in 1.5 years. Problem was intermittent but would occur after 5-30 minutes of use. Customer support was the worst I have ever...

Great computer - when you fix the blue screen problems

 

This is a great machine - fast and powerful. Many of the other reviews complain of blue screen problems which I myself encountered a couple of times a day the first few weeks. Then I installed WhoCrashed and BlueScreenView and discovered a driver for...
