HP Desktop PC - Natural Silver (AMD Ryzen 5 5600G/512GB SSD/12GB RAM/Windows 11)

It replaced my old reliable 1226s Pavilion after 10 years. 2165z case is smaller, much lighter, and cheaper built. It should have 2 HDMIs instead of keeping VGA. Only one SATA connection. Noisier fan/HD comes on more often. Power button is recessed too much and only flashes blue when computer is asleep. Win 11 system takes up about ~60GB of SSD. Plenty of USB 3.2 ports in front. M.2 NVMe is SK and easy to upgrade using Macrium cloning S/W. HD is Seagate and I like the larger 2TB size. DDR4 3200 is Samsung and dual channel. PS is rated max 310W but probably not sustained. If you don't plan to upgrade other than M.2, this is a great computer.

I previously purchased a Dell in November 2021 and slowly had issues with the entire hard drive, motherboard, etc. They were on their way to rebuilding my PC, but still were not able to resolve the issue with replacement parts. In the time being, I was in a pinch and needed a PC for work. After researching what would be the best fit for the company, I decided to go with the HP Pavilion DT TP01-2165z. So far, everything is working smoothly as it should. The PC arrived very quickly (yes, I paid for the express shipping), but it was here sooner than expected and was simple to set up.

I needed a new tower to replace my old one. Having success with HP tower units in the past, I found this one on their website. I didn't need it for gaming or streaming, but wanted a good, relatively fast computer with decent memory and hard drive space at a reasonable price. This one was pretty easy to set up. It came installed with Windows 11 and the normal add on progams so needed to work through those to make it work better for me. Seems to be working very well with all my peripheral units. System is nice and fast. Hoping to have it be problem-free for many years to come.

Works great and updated to windows 11. It's hard to find a computer anymore with a built in DVD/CD. One reason I bought it. I wish the power button was on top like my old hp or at least protruded out of the case a little more.

I needed to replace my 9 YR OLD computer (surprised it lasted that long) before I lost everything (work related) in a mad panic. So I went to Best Buy and spoke to Vishal at my local store. Told him what I needed it for, what my primary concerns were in getting a new computer. Well, he put my mind at ease with this desk top. It had the GB RAM best suited for me and my business work. I'm not very technical, so I thought most expensive must be better. But he didn't just want to make the sale, he actually listened to my concerns and what I was looking for. So this model actually turned out to be a couple hundred buxx cheaper. Just showed me he listed and adhered to what I was looking for. Thank you Best Buy, thank you Vishal, and thank HP for this excellent desk top. Oh just one thing, you will need to purchase monitor separately.
