Im just not ready to move yet!

[Morpheus]

Its about time for me to go grab another Desktop and this will not be for games and games alone. I'm going to stay with HP because for the past 20 years they have served me with little to no problems and I'm not seeing any problems.
The title of my post says how I feel about moving to windows 11! I just don't see any need to swap out windows 10 for any reason so i will most likely keep my new PC with windows 10. They biggest game for this new box is going to be limited to  AH. I will keep my memory at 8GB and https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/hp-pavilion-desktop-tp01-2225xt-bundle-pc?jumpid=ma_weekly-deals_product-tile_desktops_7_20w68aa_hp-pavilion-desktop-


So please tell me what you guys think about this new box that Im going to be grabbing.

Thanks!

This one has Win10 and a graphics card. It might be a better choice.

For a store-bought brand or the on line way, HP is really the best brand right?

While integrated graphics are much better these days I would still stay away from them.

Id spend my money on one from Digital storm

Agreed. Integrated graphics are for pretty much office-type stuff, definitely not for 3D gaming. As for as-builts, a YT channel, Gamers Nexus has been doing reviews of various brand's builds recently. Check out their channel. Good info.

And they did one just a few days ago on an HP a few step up from the one you're looking at that isn't too promising.

Well Drano I'm not looking for a new PC that is capable of Running the  space shuttle and also practicing and giving the answer to world peace BOTH at the same time now!! All I want is a new HP computer that is running windows 10; comes with a new video card; lots of Memory around 10GB of RAM give or take; new Intell procesor; couple HDs and the reset of all that newer crap!https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/hp-pavilion-desktop-tp01-1055m

Hi Morpheus,

The PC you linked does not come with a video card, and does not have an Intel processor.

Ahhh oops I threw up the wrong link to the wrong machine I am going to be getting!

Here's the right link!

And I can just call and change to my desired windows 10 OS.

Well this one has an Intel processor but still does not have a separate video card.   I doubt this machine could run AH at acceptable frame rates, although it may do very well at the other tasks you have in mind for it.

Im pretty sure I've looked at every aspect for a new Box today and this is the one that I'm going to be getting.

This is the only bad part.....

Graphics      Integrated: Intel® UHD Graphics 730

Intergrated means it doesnt have a graphics card and is NOT really made for gaming. If you think you might want to try VR, this will never work.

So I'm going to have to find a different video card? I'm so out of the on-line game world right now  but I will game machine that can do well with higher levels of video...

[Eagler]

Problem is video cards are at an all time high

That machine only has a 310W power supply; I doubt it can handle providing the power for the kind of video card you need to run AH and other 3D games.  I'd recommend at least a GTX 1660-class video card, or an AMD RX 6600, which would need a machine with a power supply of 500-550W.

As Eagler says, its not a good time to buy a video card.   BestBuy sells HP machines, and either of these should be able to give you 60fps in AH at 1080p resolution (1920x1080):
