Comment on HP TouchSmart 320-1050 Desktop Computer – Black by Happy Customer.
Awesome Product,
Okay, so my wife and I have been looking for a new computer for a long time. Its been a process because we wanted different things. She wanted an all-in-one computer that was inexpensive and I wanted one that could play some video games. This computer is the perfect compromise. Now that the back story is over Ill get into whats great about this computer.
First of all this is not a dual core processor like its listed. This is a quad core machine. Also the graphics card is DX 11 capable so it can play all the latest games. You can also allocate up-to 2Gs of your RAM to the graphics card. The fact that this computer also comes with 6G of RAM and a 1TB hard-drive just puts this computer over the top. If you want a decent gaming machine without the giant tower and for a decent price this is it.
The monitor is beautiful. Its listed as 20″ but its a wide screen aspect so it doesn’t seem like its 20″ at all. Its got a great sound. The beats audio gives it a very rich sound. The only problem is that the speakers themselves don’t get very loud. To hear Pandora in the other room you need to nearly max out the speakers. But that said there is no distortion whatsoever when the speakers are at max volume. The machine also comes with a built in web-cam and mic and they work just fine.
The system also comes with a wireless keyboard and mouse. I have no complaints about the mouse though the keyboard is very light-weight and seems sort of flimsy. However, my wife says she likes the lightweight because she can then place the keyboard in her lap and lounge in the chair to type.
The set up was super simple. You just have to plug it in and press the power button. Your keyboard and mouse will connect wirelessly automatically. One confusing thing is that the instructions show a bluetooth adapter that you have to plug-in, there isn’t one because you don’t need one. You do have to go through the process of registering your machine and the whole initial set-up process which takes a few minutes but is very straight forward.
This computer is definitely worth the price. And I have already recommended this system to several friends and family members.
