Better than expected
By Tori W on Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2021
I bought this computer for personal use and to play games. As far as personal use (ie... emails, facebook, instagram, etc...) it is great! Super fast, depending on your internet, and has lots of storage. As far as gaming goes, it could be better. I keep getting the "low FPS" warning on Valorant, and Stardew Valley is having issues with the mods that I have added (not sure if that is a game issue or computer issue). Other than that, everything is running smoothing. I've been able to stream using OBS while playing Valorant, as well as Minecraft (with a render distance of 15).I did have some issues with a bluetooth headset, but that was alleviated when I switched headphones and a seperate mic. Everything that the post said would come with the computer came in the box. The mouse/keyboard combo are wired (not my favorite) but they are decent. Thankfully I have a wireless set that I love and was able to hook up without issues. I think I read some people complaining that the power cord wasn't provided. That wasn't my issue.Overall, I am enjoying the computer, and would recommend this as a great starter gaming computer as long as you aren't trying to run CPU/GPU heavy games.

You cannot add a second Video Output Port without buying a new (more powerful) Power supply
By Joe on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2020
The computer seemed ideal for one of my Building Automation Display computers. But, I had a few problems. In my application, the machine is required to run 24 hours a day on a UPS. This computer initially shut down every few days and had to be manually restarted. HP support came online and reinstalled the Windows 10 OS from scratch and this fixed that problem. In this application, I have to have two identical displays connected, running the same video. First I tried to do this by connecting one display in by the regular VGA port and the second (a touchscreen) via one of the USB ports. This words, BUT, every day or so, the "duplicate the same screen on both VGA displays" feature quits working for one or the other displays. I also tried just running the TWO displays from the ONE VGA port. Unfortunately, the VGA display port shuts down if you try to run two displays from the port.I am told I must add a separate (HP ONLY Supplier) VGA card and a more powerful power supply (HP ONLY SPECIAL PSU) if I want to run my two normal VGA displays. Obviously, for a $900 computer, these restrictions are abnormal and not reasonable limitations. I cannot recommend this computer for any application needing more than a single display.
