HP Z420 PCSP Entry Level Music Production PC, Intel Xeon E5-1620 Quad Core up to 3.8GHz, 32GB RAM, 512GB SSD + 2TB HDD, Nvidia Quadro 600 1GB (Display Port & DVI), USB 3.0, Windows 10 Pro (Renewed)

These refurbed machines cost 10x less than new and are bulletproof for 24/7 engineering type computing.Don't be fooled by the age of the technology - these are monster industrial strength computers.We use these machines at my engineering firm to this day (purchased new) so I can attest to their robust performance and durability. The only machines bigger than these are our new 4.5 ghz, 16 core cpu, 64 GB RAM machines - which of course are much better - but I don't need quite that many resources for my purpose.I use mine for electronic futures day trading where the 3.9 ghz processor, 8 CPU cores, and 32 GB of RAM give me unparalleled trade interface performance and split second trade execution.My inclination is they would not be good for gaming.

Well I finally got around to setting the system up. To my surprise after restarting the system it got suck in “automatic repair” mode. After continuously restarting it-it finally came back on. The very next day after I restarted it with updates and the interface crashed. There is now exclamation marks on a few of the system icons stating its missing drivers for several software applications. The usb ports no longer work. It also makes a loud noise after turning the system. I can do anything with it. Although I am very upset it truly is my fault-as I NEVER should have ordered a “refurbished” computer. Purchase at your own risk. If you need a real computer just buy a brand new one…or risk throwing money away as I am doing now-in the trash it goes!

First computer I ordered came damaged, crazy how badly those boxes can be abused on their travels to reach a customer. Contacted the seller and immediately was one on one with a real, friendly person who messaged throughout the replacement process and through shipping.Computer works great, I'm very happy with it's speed and consistency so far. It can handle everything I want to do in the DAW. I've had no trouble loading any vst plugin, not a single issue.My computer tech brain stopped growing sometime in the early 2000's, so finding a product like this that someone designs specifically for my needs is very helpful. Thanks : )

No problems from I buy it so it is good

The PC is very fast and works as promised. Boots up quickly. The included wifi adapter was only capable of one frequency if that matters to you. Also it's easy to overlook the fact that the back of the unit has DVI and Display connections rather than HDMI and/or VGA. It's not likely your monitor will have those so order an adapter or cable at the same time. They're very inexpensive on Ebay. The seller would be smart to have some on hand as an add on.

Disliked nothing about the product. Everything is working well.This is a great value for the money, and a good entry-level virtualization testing platform.

Looks like it was put together by a 5 year old. Crooked, rusty, dirty and dusty ports. Monitor connections don't work Flashbacks of "you got mail" era. Extremely heavy and cumbersome you have to pay for shipping when you find out you've been ripped off. Depending on where you live prepare to pay at least 50.00 that can't recoup shipping this hunk of junk back to the souless trolls that try to pass this off as something you actually need or want. Buyers beware.

A real DAW machine! I use it for song writing with WIN10 and Audacity. It replaced my older slower computer that couldn't keep up in multi-track recording and play back.
