June 3rd, 2005


Author's product rating:   HP Vectra VL420 - P4 1.5 GHz - rated by swells87

Speed Fast 
Design Good 
Manufacturer Support Excellent 
Ease of use Satisfactory 
Value For Money Poor 

Advantages: Intel's 845 chip set allows PC manufacturers to pair Pentium 4 CPUs with SDRAM instead of more - expensive RDRAM .  HP's latest Vectra, with a 2 - GHz P4 and 256MB of PC133 memory,
Disadvantages: The speakers integrated into the system case produce lackluster, tinny sound .

Recommend to potential buyers: yes 

Full review
Though the vents on the front of the gray and blue desktop are reminiscent of the grille of a Ford truck, the case does sport some features that should prove useful to IT managers, such as chassis-intrusion detection and easy interior access. To open the system, just lift a latch handle and then pop off the top. Inside, you can access the three open PCI slots and two drive bays (one for a hard drive only) without tools. You can insert drives after you snap off the front panel, and add expansion cards after pressing a green tab, which pops off a support cover. With HP's Ultraflow cooling system, the components stay cool with very little noise. this is a very good pc overall i wouild definetly recommend this to any1
