Features


Basic design
An all new Compaq design that is easy to setup and easy to use. Get to work right out of the box with the functionality you need for small business computing at its basics and operate effectively from day one.

Essential technology
Capable AMD processors 1, Windows® 7 Operating System, NVIDIA chipset and graphics, a choice of optical drives, hard drives up to 500GB 2 and up to 4 GB DDR3 SDRAM memory 3 for just right computing.

Need options
Available PCIe slots for options like discrete graphics cards.

Built to last
With more than 130,000 hours of testing, you get a reliable and durable desktop that can go the distance.
1 This system requires a separately purchased 64-bit operating system and 64-bit software products to take advantage of the 64-bit processing capabilities of the AMD 64 processor. Given the wide range of software applications available, performance of a system including a 64-bit operating system will vary. Dual/Quad/Triple Core is designed to improve performance of multithreaded software products and hardware-aware multitasking operating systems and may require appropriate operating system software for full benefit. Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of this technology. This PC does not support the AMD over-clocking feature.
2 Up to 1 GB may not be available with 32-bit operating systems due to system resource requirements. Dual Channel is only supported when the system is configured with DDR3 symmetric memory (i.e. 2 x 2GB). For systems configured with more than 3 GB of memory and a 32-bit operating system, all memory may not be available due to system resource requirements. Addressing memory above 4 GB requires a 64-bit operating system.
3 For hard drives, GB = 1 billion bytes. Actual formatted capacity is less. Up to 8GB (for XP and XP Pro), up to 10 GB (for Vista) and up to 16 GB (for Windows 7) of disk space is reserved for the system recovery software.


This system may require upgraded and/or separately purchased hardware and/or a DVD drive to install the Windows 7 software and take full advantage of Windows 7 functionality. See www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7 for details
