HP Desktop Computers

Choose the right HP computer for the workplace
When purchasing computer technology for businesses of any size, there are several things to look at. For offices where space is at a premium, an all-in-one system is a great option since the hard drive is integrated into the monitor, and its wireless accessories can tuck away in a drawer when not in use. Each department's computer needs vary based upon what their goals are. Basic computers are typically satisfactory for staff performing regular office tasks such as scheduling, emails, and invoicing. Other departments that perform tasks such as graphic design, video editing, and animation, which require the use of multiple programs, need a system with more storage space, additional RAM, a better processor, and possibly touch screens. Be sure to know individual departmental needs when shopping for workplace computers.

Keep the office green with energy-efficient HP computers
Easily identify HP's energy-saving computers by looking for the Energy Star label. Systems bearing this label help protect the environment by reducing power consumption. Certified energy-efficient models use approximately 25 percent less power than similar models. To save even more energy, choose screensavers carefully and don't leave unnecessary programs running in the background. HP makes it easy to keep the office going in the green direction.

What operating system do HP computers use?
The most common operating system for these computers is Windows. For users who prefer a Linux-based interface, the HP ThinPro OS sets up and configures with ease while providing natural security features. The Google Chrome OS is an option for cloud-based computing and integrating with Android apps and devices.

Are HP computers suitable for gaming?
Yes, HP offers computers designed to support moderate and hard-core gaming. When looking for a gaming computer, take into consideration the games played and the amount of storage space required. Look for a system with high-quality graphics and audio cards, larger amounts of RAM and storage space, and a dual- or quad-core processor. Remember to check that the cooling system is adequate and that ports are easily accessible. Select gaming computers have Bluetooth and wireless technology for an enhanced gaming experience.

What is an all-in-one HP computer?
All-in-one desktop PCs perform just like traditional desktop computers but only require a fraction of the space. With the hard drive integrated into the monitor, there's no bulky tower with unsightly wires running across the desk. These models typically consist of a monitor integrated with a hard drive, a monitor stand, and a wireless mouse and keyboard. Most HP models have built-in speakers. USB and HDMI ports are typically located on the side or rear for connecting other devices. Select systems offer anti-glare displays and built-in DVD drives. They are powerful and reliable enough for general use in homes and offices, and even for light gaming.
