Gaming HP 800G1 Elite Quad Core i7-4770, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB, WiFi, Windows 10 64Bit Gaming Tower Computer (Renewed)

The HDD means it can be a little slow starting and launching games. I don't play high end games but this runs wow just fine and for the price I cannot fault it. A few issues with delivery but this appeared to be the carrier and I cannot fault the seller for his prompt abd friendly responses to my contacts and resolving things, would definitely buy from them again.

My previous computer died and wouldn't start up, but I had it for years. I wanted a replacement desktop with plenty of expansion possibilities. This is a big box, came looking like new. 4 rows for memory, 5 connectors for hard disks. They use screws rather than rails for mounting hard disks, it was nice that two additional sets of screws are included.The wifi dongle it came with seemed to perform as well as the more expensive wifi adapter I had on my old machine. I installed the hard drives from my old machine and it booted up sweet as a nut. I replaced the 8Gb of memory with 16, but that was only because I had it. It seemed fine with the 8. The SMART reading of the disk it came with showed no errors. The version of windows needed to be authenticated, but the product key on the label worked fine.Performance wise it is very quick compared to my old PC (5 years old or so). It loads Skyrim in half the time the old one took. All in all a great buy for what I wanted.

I'll get this out the way, I had massive doubts about this pc, it sounded to good to be true. An i7 and a decent graphics card for £430. After using it for a few hours and loading world of Warcraft on it, I'm pleased to say this machine runs as I wanted it to. All I want this pc for is to play Blizzard games on it. which it does really well. So if your in the market for a budget pc that can game and be fast at it then get this. Someone said this pc is loud but mine is really quiet.Edit: I've been using this P.C everyday since it arrived. Now I will tell you that the P.C has gone through a drastic change. It now has 16 GB of Corsair Vengeance ram, an Asus 1650 oc edition card, A crucial 1 TB mx 500 ssd. With the ssd everything is much faster and smoother. The P.C without the upgrades is good, with the upgrades its better. I wasn't going to upgrade it but I had the money to do it. It isn't actually worth it to buy such expensive parts. You might as well buy a P.C that already has these things in it. But if you do want to upgrade it then buy an 8 GB Crucial ram kit and a really cheap ssd for windows boot drive. You will see a boost in performance at wallet friendly cost. If all this sounds like to much effort and I wouldn't blame you then simply use it as is , and you will have a good time.

Purchased as a Xmas present for my youngest son only just opened as I thought I best open it and check it works don't want to give son as present that I never actually tested.Well good job iIdid as it took over 3 minutes to load into Windows everytime I tested so runs abysmally slowly, so actions taken included buying a new SSD to replace the HDD did NOT resolve it.Seems they packaged it all up with a windows install that they either totally ballsed up, or has been copied over repeatedly, as the only solution was to completely do a fresh reinstall which I did on a SSD that I purchased.It now loads up windows a little quicker (around 100 seconds) but that's a far cry to the main PC in the house which loads within 5 seconds.Do not recommend this as a purchase unless you have solid knowledge of PC's as it will cost a lot more money to resolve it as the PC parts do look damaged. My guess is the motherboard is in the process of 'burning' out or has damaged SATA interfaces etc and tbh you would be better off buying a PC, for a bit more, having custom built with identical specs.In affect your buying a product for it's CPU/GPU and will have to move them out of the tower that is supplied into a fresh new tower with a new motherboard.It's sold as renewed, at least, so they can probably get away with selling a product like this.

I was surprised at the size of the pc- very very large but with loads of space inside the case so everything inside is easily accessible. It comes with 4x2gb DDR3 ram chips which is a bit weird, but 4 ram slots is very good and it all works really nicely.Comfortably runs games like planet coaster on max settings, and the temp never goes above 40°C.Very quiet fans as well, a review below said it was really loud but I barely hear anything- it's significantly quieter than a desk fan.No dust inside the case, a little on the fan but that's to be expected.Comes with a WiFi dongle sellotaped to the inside of the box but its just as good if not better than the connectivity my phone gets, even using a USB slot in the back of the pc which is against a wall.Boots very quickly.Setting up a headset was a little weird, as the headset jack on the front didn't work for me but that might be my headset (turtle beach atlas one)Overall, an amazing pc and I am extremely happy.

Reading other reviews I am a little surprised as my experience differs somewhat. I tried both World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy FFXIV and found both ran very slow, with inordinate load times. Suspecting it might be a memory issue I added 8gb more RAM and most of the problems vanished. The remaining one was a very slow internet connection, which was remedied by replacing the supplied wifi dongle with the one from my old computer. This kicked the download speed up from 6 to 57mbps.I'd still rate this good value for money, but it needs a couple of tweaks to really perform as a gaming PC.

Computer is slow. I tried to upgrade to 16gb ram just to find out slots 3 and 4 are faulty, Overall the PC is decent

To be honest for the price, this is one of the best value pc I've ever had and seen. Having a GTX 1050 Ti and a i7 cpu together in a budget pc is unheard of bc of the price. I’ve had no problems or questions so far after 1 month of buying. Only 1 thing i would say that it is pretty loud but what can you expect for a £430 pc that can at least have 1080p gaming capabilities
