HP M8330F

 

Great for Gaming, TV watching/recording and virtually anything else. I paired this with a HP2207h 22 inch monitor and it looks beautiful. With the HP software installed, Vista is good to go with no problems.

Less then a month owning, but so far this computer rocks! Multitaks with ease (burn lightscribe CD's while recording a movie from cable and surfing the internet... Easily Best price from Newegg. Comes with good to go software like Media center and...

TV tuner card DOA, but to HP's credit, very good phone support and then very quick shipping and return. They had the computer back to me in 4-5 days. I don't think you can use off the shelf ; SATA drives for extra storage. HP wants you to use its...

Excellent Multimedia/Gaming System

 

This is the best computer ever...

Comes w/ 3gb of ram and can expand to 8gb

Needs a better power supply... I might recommend the Silverstone 750 Watt power supply... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256006

Fantastic!

 

I'm very happy with this buy. Shipped within 3 days. Thanks NewEgg!

Extremely quiet, best hardware for the price, huge harddrives, 3gb ram

No dedicated graphics card, to install XP - you will need to go to nVidia's site and download the XP drivers ; that goes with the sound card as well. the Vista drivers that HP provided won't install at all on XP

The New Computer

 

The double Hard Druve both 320Gb is excellent for me. I use one SATA HD for my XP Meida Center, and the other SATA HD I partitioned 3 times. Quad-Booting with XP, Vista, Ubuntu, Sabayon. By the way Linux runs smoothly on this machine, best Linux...

Well the quad is excellent. Had running iTunes, Firewox, a DVD, and about 5 open folders and maintained a CPU Usage of less than 40%. Excellent case, with a good quality Graphics card. I installed XP right when I got it, Vista just doesn't work for me....

I really couldn't get the intergrated LAN port to work in XP, no driver for it ; The intergrated tv-tuner card is "alright" not working properly with Media Center. Wish it had more USB ports, but 6 is just enough to get me by

SPEED!, HP installed S/W, huge hard drives, TV tuner, slick case design, dirt simple upgradeablilty

300W PSU, only one DVD drive, weak onboard graphics for serious gaming
