| tazzedout82364's Full Review: Hewlett Packard Pavilion 514n (DA191A#ABA) PC Desk... |
In sept 2003 it would not turn on so I had to ship it to HP in CA for repairs. Thank God at no cost to me! They had it back into my hands in a week. I'm glad to say all is well, being that I'm using the computer to write this review. :)
The paperwork said that the CPU wasn't getting any video so that was taken care of. This is a nice PC for a first time buyer who won't use it for 3D games. It will handle all the regular tasks without a sweat. I just installed the maximum of memory that the PC would allow....1,014Gig, so that should keep this puppy happy for a long time.
Wish I could do the same for the video memory but I can't.
:(
I did some research for this computer and it had a good rating CD-net gave it a 4.4 out of 5 stars and they said it was very cheap to buy, well under 800 bucks.
