Customer Reviews
5 A respectable contender for the money
I found this model to find the cheapest dual-core desktop DDR3. Before I bought it I did a lot of research on the Internet to find answers to some questions, but found very little. Amazon extensive customer service knowledge and awareness of a person and understanding of what I'm still went ahead and bought it. Its use is intended primarily for the Internet every day, MS Office, standard definition TV and change some Adobe Photoshop. There will be 24 / 7, but not a workaholic primary HD.
Lenovo is not mentioned by this model on their website. Or is it a discontinued model or more suppliers as a model for specific input, such as Amazon and Staples here (find an exact match is also available). Internet search reveals very little, but that does not mean it is not accompanied and supported by Lenovo, just having trouble finding the updated drivers and supported hardware. Since I'm an IT person and can handle, you do not want to face. Amazon does not sell very Lenovo supported models such as A, B, K and Q models, but it will cost you more money. This model was exactly what I was looking for, and it cost me less.
Here's what I've learned now that I have in my possession:
conflicting reports have produced this model with 32-bit and 64-bit software. It comes with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
He is the model H215 with an AMD dual-core 3.0 GHz Athlon X2 250th two years I have a Dell runing the same processor, but with 6 GB of DDR2 RAM. It must be rock solid.
Lenovo supports 4 GB DDR3 PC3 240-pin with 2 slots (2 x 2 GB max) or 8500/1066MHZ 10600/1333MHz. It comes with a single stick of 2GB in a position to 1066 8500 Samsung brand. It 'nice, as you can upgrade to 4 GB of RAM dump without storage. I have a 2 GB Kingston 8500 in slot 2 to 4 GB @ $ 38.
The event is accessible by removing two screws and a great place to reach the components. It has three free PCI slots for adding peripheral components such as TV cards, video cards, wireless cards, etc. I got the Hauppauge TV card from my old computer and it works great. There is also room for a second hard disk to add.
Lenovo lightly loaded the elements such as cleaning the hard drive was a breeze. Lenovo has a partition large enough for the backup and recovery - more than 40 GB, lowering the total cost of all the useful size of 320 GB of hard disk space. But it is a good thing because the recovery should something happen to your PC is a breeze - if the problem is not with the same unit.
For the money, $ 417 W/4GB RAM, serves its purpose and I have no complaints about the performance. This is a 24-inch monitor with a lid to 1920 x 1080 analog VGA.

4  Completely acceptable computer
Pros:Very low pricesAttractive polished casegreat potential for expansion
Disadvantages:Integrated Graphics ArchitectureMouse and keyboardIncluding bloatwareNo WiFi
Total:I am very happy with my purchase. We had a laptop runs out in my house and needed a replacement quick'n'cheap. benchmarks show that the new line of Radeon 3000 graphics chipset has been very well go to integrated graphics. Although the computer has less RAM and processor below the price of many computers in competition, was enough for me to do about it.
activated quickly and easily, the box was ready, in a very short time to do. It comes with an installation of McAfee for 15 days less than the digital port, and a variety of applications Lenovo, which are probably unnecessary, but at least they are harmless. For such a low-cost computers is a very low level of bloatware. I consider a wireless mouse and keyboard, low prices have fallen, but what they offer is not bad. The integrated memory card reader is a nice gesture, but the lack of WiFi has been seriously lacking.
320 GB of memory is correct, the optical drive, optical drive, and memory is good. It comes with Windows 7 x64, but only two slots for memory and as such for a maximum of 4 GB to 2 GB of memory, which, in one of these slots. Hopefully, memory stick larger than 2 GB will be available soon so that you can enjoy the x64 architecture and the distribution of more than 4 GB of memory. Even if it never happened, though, 4GB is enough to make you happy for at least five years and probably more.
The performance is as expected. It pushes a 1920x1080 monitor is very good. Online Flash video player in HD no doubt. Adobe Lightroom is running smoothly. It would be great as a multimedia PC to a TV, the fans are very quiet inside.
What are these computer games. I thought it would be similar to the laptop of five years (that came with the game of office equipment), but does not work. World of Warcraft is completely unplayable at native resolution. Do you need an external graphics card. This has the advantage of freeing the 256 MB of video RAM that takes architecture. Bank on the computer from ~ 1100 in 3DMark06. Very good for this price category, but not enough.
Here I was so happy I am with this computer. The motherboard has a lot of space to breathe in and everything is easily accessible. Better yet, there is one PCI slot, two PCI Express x1 and one PCI-Express X16 is. Wow! Computer Discount usually stingy, where they can, and locations on the motherboard are some of the first things to do. Totally kickass. Kickass addition, the installation of new graphics card automatically disables the integrated graphics card. There is no need to go out into the BIOS. Is this new? I have built a computer at a time. I remember the DIP switches and jumpers. Sigh. It 'was the weather.
On the road. Check before you buy a graphics card, but. I bought a Radeon 5750 to ensure nirvana Warcraft, and requires a power of 500 watts, that uses only 180W power supply. You can buy a 500W power supply in silence for $ 35, but it's more money, and if the budget is a consideration, every dollar counts. However, I think it's worth it. The choice of Lenovo's global components are strong enough, and with another $ 165 on supply and graphics card power, the computer can World of Warcraft max graphics settings to run on the monitor's native resolution and frame rate of 30 frames the second expectation. The 3DMark06 score is now ~ 12,000. With a little bit 'of money spent and could again this super-cheap computers are modern and adapted for many years.
You can find this computer for about $ 20 cheaper ($ 359) to BestBuy. I thought you might like to know.
