* AMD Athlon(TM) 64 X2 5200+ dual-core - 2.6GHz
* 2GB DDR2-667MHz dual channel SDRAM (2x1024) [I'll be adding another 1 or 2 asap]
* FREE UPGRADE! 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS, DVI-I, TV-out, HDMI
* No Modem
* 320GB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive [I'll get an external backup soon as well]

Great system. I'm still working on my p4 512 meg of ram which is slow. Thoughts on a trade?

Nice system.

Should have gone for a Q660 and overclocked it You can easily get up to 3ghz without having to tinker

Instead of building my current PC, I bought an HP as well. I am quite impressed with it. It is a very nice little machine and came with software that I would have had to purchase separately if I built my own like Vista. My specs are similar to above but I have a AMD 5000+ CPU, 3 GB of RAM and an 8600GT video card. All in all, it cost me about $800.
