Lenovo IdeaCentre K330 77273GU

At $999, with a midrange Intel Core i5 chip, a discrete graphics card, and a stylized case, the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330 clearly has Gateway's FX line in mind as its competition. A unique, semi-useful CPU speed control mechanism helps the Lenovo stand...

The Lenovo IdeaCentre K330 offers a fairly priced combination of performance and home entertainment components in a reasonably attractive chassis

We wish Lenovo had equipped this PC with more connectivity options, and also boosted its upgrade potential by adding a beefier power supply

The Lenovo IdeaCentre K330 is a decent attempt to compete with other budget gaming PCs, but a few configuration misses prevent a stronger recommendation. It's best for mainstream shoppers looking for a combination of basic 3D power and Blu-ray playback...

COMPUTER SHOPPER - GOOD FOR GAMING

Expert review by: Daniel A. Begun (computershopper.com)

Lenovo IdeaCentre K330-77273GU

Stylish, speedy, and expandable: These three words are a good way to sum up the Lenovo IdeaCentre K330-77273GU desktop. With a $999 price direct from Lenovo, it sports a combo Blu-ray reader/DVD±RW drive, a dedicated graphics card, and a modest, but...

Solid app performance ; Attractive design ; Expandable ; Blu-ray drive

Limited gaming pep ; Cheap keyboard, mouse ; No USB 3.0

Productivity-application speed and good looks make this $999 mainstream PC a good value. A few advertised features are not as they seem, however, so know what you're getting—and not.

Super fast

Bought this for my wife just to check her emails. Her desk top was an old one and would run a little slow at times downloading pictures. (It wasn't my service because my Lenovo laptop is very fast on our service) After reading the reviews and having...

Nothing like being ripped off for nearly 1k

I love amazon and have no problem with the seller of this item beach audio but when you spend 1,000 on a new desktop you hope it works for more than 3 days. Within 3 days I was left with the dreaded Lenovo No Input signal. Now I have to spend a bunch...

Excellent PC

I have purchased several Lenovo's the past couple months. These machines are just a great no nonsense machine with little bloatware on them. Very fast machine and seem to be well built.

Great higher-end business computing

I will post back later with how this computer does over some time. So far I am impressed with value in terms of the CPU, memory, disk space, number of USB and other connections... This box might disappoint if you are a gamer, the video card does not...
