Great purchase. My only disappointment is the build around a quality processor. Seems like HP is going on the cheap with everything else. Ive purchased HP in the past and was pleased with their product. This build is a step down in my opinion. Heres why. The DVD burner is flimsy. It flops around when open and seems loose, not sure it will last if used a lot . Audio input/outputs. Just three. Mic/Out/In. My last HP had 5.1 audio along with a optical out. USB. Four in the back two in the front. This may not be an issue for some. Last HP. 8 USB. Four USB 2 and four USB 3. Video. VGA and HDMI. Last HP. VGA HDMI and DVI. My monitor is DVI. These are just a few things Ive noticed between this and the last HP build. If your the casual home user Im sure this unit will be fine. Its very fast. If your a user that wants to build around this machine and add you own audio, video and other peripherals your out of luck as the motherboard has ONE PCI 16 expansion slot. Without sounding redundant, Last HP. four expansion slots. If may add, my last HP had an MSI motherboard. This build, not sure what it is. Sorry to bore you with all the comparisons but Ive built many a PC over the last 25 years so just sharing my thoughts on HPs latest offering. May save some users from a purchase they dont really want.

My old, trusty Windows 7 machine became so unreliable that I could no longer keep it going on life-support. It was time for an upgrade, so I went window shopping on Amazon and Best Buy, and narrowed my choice down to the computer I bought on Amazon (2-day shipping, easy return policy, and enough reviews that it was a no-brainer) Set-up was easy enough, and it was a joy once more to do my photo editing on a machine with the horsepower to minimize waiting while Photoshop and Filter Forge crunched the numbers. After having it for a month, Im satisfied even more with HPs efforts. Speed and power at an affordable price--you just cant beat it!

This computer is very good, but the initial startup might cause some people to send it back. It hardly functions until the software is updated. The screen may stay black for minutes and when it comes on it will be very slow. After the computer has completed all the updates it is fast and reliable. The keyboard is too small, so I used the one from the computer it replaced. The mouse is also small but functional. I will replace it shortly with a larger wireless. I would have rated this computer 5 stars except for the keyboard and mouse.

The computer worked few weeks and then the USB ports stopped working. Send it for repairs on March 4 and it is still not back. In my opinion never buy a computer or an electronic item on Amazon as their after sales service sucks. Absolutely no customer care, no status update or clear idea of when the desktop will come back. I wish I had gone to the local store and got it so I have someone to speak to and get status on what is happening. 8 weeks for a computer repair is completely unacceptable.

I have purchased HP products in the past and have not had any problems, however this computer was a problem. Called tech support, and spent 3 hours on the phone only to be told they wanted to do a factory reset. Tech said he would call back in 3 hours. Never called back. I recalled them in am and was told that they wanted to send me to "advanced" tech help and there would be a charge. Told them no, there would not be as the computer was still under waranty. Put me on hold and came back and said that the super agreed and he would send me there, and the call was dropped, or I was hung up on, not sure which. I finally fixed it myself. The computer isnt bad, but if you need help just know that you might not get it. ever since I called for help, I have been getting harrasing calls from GEEK SQUAD

Computer constantly turns off. HP customer service will not resolve problem w/o turning it over to HP Smart Friend Services for a fee. Computer is only 6 weeks old

I really like this PC so far. The keyboard and mouse are low end - wired flat keyboard much like a 15" laptops and a full size wired mouse. They work good for what they are and you may be satisfied with them. I dont think theres much software they are giving you free with this system - 30 day McAfee already loaded (most everyone has free AV app via their internet provider but I guess this does make sure you dont have a gap in protection when you first get going). Some HP apps but nothing of interest to me. MS Office is not included - if you want office apps then they have links to buy and install office 2016 apps direct from MS. Bluetooth works great and my Sony XB30 speaker linked right up with it . Xbox One controller pairs up with it also. It has one HDMI video port and one VGA video port so you can hook up 2 monitors at the same time if one is VGA and one is HDMI. The wireless AC internet works good so I have not tried the wired network connection. Sitting with my i3 on one side and this i7 on the other side of me, this PC is quieter. As for upgrading, you are limited with this system. You can add another internal HDD or SSD as a second internal drive. There is one PCIE-16 slot so you can add a video card as long as its no more than about 6.8 inches long. You cant put a longer video card in because there is a connector on the motherboard that blocks it and you will not want to be without what is connected there - all front ports. Its a motherboard design issue so even changing the case wouldnt help. You will need to buy a new power supply to go with any new video card but that shouldnt be a problem. This uses a pretty standard looking power supply about 5" x 5.5" x 3". So Ive had this thing for a couple of months now and I can add some more info. It is really nice that its an i7 desktop cpu and has wifi and bluetooth. For me, it does a good job with 3d slicing software, some cad, photoshop, etc. as-is and I am getting a lot of use out of it. Ok, the nice ends. It is really bad in that every time the hard disk gets busy - internet browser loading, opening an app, saving a large file, unknown processes sending data or maybe antivirus scanning - whatever it is - if the HDD is busy, your mouse doesnt work. This is with both the wired mouse and a wireless. I seems that the USB ports are subject to not taking input when the HDD is busy. Totally ridiculous that the main input device does not function properly. Also - I kept getting some HDD errors so I contacted tech support and they were very responsive but... they had me do a system restore and lose all of my data - emails, resumes, photos, music - all gone. Fortunately I had copies on my laptop but I lost a couple of days of installing, copying and configuring this thing.The front usb, sd, etc are all oriented vertical instead of horizontal and that makes them much harder to use because I am always sticking them in the wrong way. Also, only 1 front usb port. The DVD drive works fine but its vertical too - and flimsy. Because of the price I paid I am still not regretful of buying this thing but due to the stupid design decisions and the issue with the mouse I am lowering from 5 stars to 3.

Great Computer, Fast, works great. I dropped one Star because of the Rinky Dink Keyboard included. This is my 3rd HP and the 1st one that I had to immediately order a new keyboard for. Come on HP, you can do better than that..

The DVD drive is pathetic. I dont see how they could have made it cheaper or more fragile. But Im sure they will prove me wrong with the next generation of Pavilions. Fortunately I have an external DVD writer because the internal one will die the first time I sneeze on it.

so far i like this computer its seems to work good. However this are the downfalls and i hate about it. 1, the key board is garbage i had to buy a replacement on Amazon. 2. The mouse is worse than garbage i cant even use it. 3. Limited USB ports it could have been much better so i had to buy something here to expand it. 4. the wi fi has much high speed needed to work with my wi fi at home. The best service i can get in area is 1200 this machine requires min 1500, But to fix this i order a 100 ft cable so i can use this computer where i needed. 5. No speaks i am going to buy something here on Amazon.
