Affordable Desktops: Match The Machine To Your Needs

| Games | No Comments

In this article, we’ll consider factors that make a desktop a good buy at a reasonable price and discuss what you may have to—and absolutely should not—give up when you opt for a low- or mid-priced model.

From Bare-Bones To Bells & Whistles

It is an inescapable fact that most things with lots of “gee whiz” features are either expensive or represent a compromise in quality somewhere. You cannot expect a midrange PC to have high-end internal workings and a bunch of external niceties, too.

A good way to determine what features may put your desktop out of reach is to run through the “Configure Your PC” process on a PC manufacturer’s Web site. You can add and drop features at will and get a good feel for how much they add to the cost of the computer. Below, we’ll outline key features to consider, followed by a listing of some solid desktop choices. Note that all the desktops in our article include Windows 7 unless you choose otherwise.

Power When You Need It

Processor power and system memory are two of the criteria that can separate low-to-midrange systems from their higher-end cousins. For standard business operations, a dual-core processor is sufficient. However, if you perform processor-intensive operations, such as video editing or advanced spreadsheet formula calculations, you might want a quad-core machine. For memory, look for at least 2GB of RAM, which will speed multi-tasking and complex processes. Memory is often inexpensive to upgrade. If you can afford to, move up to 4GB or 8GB of memory (assuming your system supports the higher capacities) for better performance.

The Data Store

One place you may not need to splurge is on data storage, unless you work with giant graphics or video files. Business documents tend to be small, so 500GB (or even 250GB) of storage space may well be sufficient. Often, higher-end machines may have big storage capacities, and this is a good place to trim the fat.

The exception to this rule is if you install and run multiple programs with big footprints. For this reason, if your PC will come preformatted into multiple virtual drives (such as C: and D:), make sure the C: drive has enough capacity for your programs.

The View Doesn’t Matter

You may not need a dedicated, high-end graphics card unless you work with graphics, video, or CAD (computer-aided design) programs or plan to use a mammoth monitor. Many business PCs come with what is called “integrated” graphics, meaning the graphics card is built into the motherboard.

High-end systems sometimes include expensive gaming-style cards that are overkill for many small businesses. If you think you will need a graphics card down the road for architectural drawings or marketing videos, it can cost less to purchase one now than to add one later via an expansion slot.

Room To Grow

Speaking of expansion slots, you don’t need a slew of them. One of the big differentiators between low-to-mid-priced PCs and their high-end brethren is power supplies. A basic power supply cannot drive a bunch of cards without overheating, so there is little need for multiple expansion slots. Provided you have USB ports to expand with external devices, a couple of extra slots—and maybe a second hard drive bay—is enough.

Necessary Add-Ons

Depending on how you use your PC, you may need a flash card reader, a sound card with audio in and out (microphone and speakers) and an Ethernet card for your wired network. Wireless chips—both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth—may be important, as well. It’s usually less expensive to get these things at the outset rather than pay for them to be added later. Beyond these peripherals, most add-ons are window dressing. Some businesses may have a use for touchscreen technology, but it is far from a “must-have” feature for many, at this point.

Lenovo H420 (7752-1YU)

| News | No Comments

People are always looking for good deals when purchasing items. In electronics, good deals will offer great performance, great graphics and great support at low prices. The Lenovo H420 (7752-1YU) is a mid-range desktop that is well-worth the money spent on it. Valued at $600, there are only few desktops that can compare with it in terms of features.

The chassis is mostly matte black aluminum. The positioning of the components is fairly standard. There is a DVD burner at the top of the front panel. Connections to removable media are found directly below it. These include USB ports, a memory card reader and audio ports.The back panel is similar to most as well in terms of ports. There are additional USB ports, RJ45, VGA and the antenna for the built-in Wi-Fi card. Wi-Fi is of utmost importance nowadays. People prefer having lesser wires on their devices. If there is one wire that can be done without, it is instantly replaced. Wi-Fi reduces the need to connect via Ethernet.

 

One advantage of the H420 (7752-1YU) is that it has an HDMI-out port in the back panel. A lot of desktops miss out on this important component. The manufacturers of those desktops do not understand that some users want to send the video output elsewhere via HDMI. It’s a good thing this system has one ready for use. It did miss out on another thing that plagues new desktops. The thing which would have boosted this system’s popularity is the USB 3.0 interface. Any desktop that offers this and has decent performance will be preferred by consumers.

 

Another issue with the H420 (7752-1YU) is its lack of free memory slots. At the moment, it has 6GB of RAM that is split evenly between two DIMM slots. The user can always replace the 2 3GB modules with 4GB modules but you are still limited to a maximum of 8GB. Some desktops can go as far as 16GB thanks to the presence of 4 DIMM slots. Upgrading memory is one of the reasons why desktops are bought. If you can’t upgrade it to meet the demands of the future, that is a big downside.

 

That aside, the hard drive is something to behold. The H420 (7752-1YU) is equipped with a 1.5TB drive which is larger than the average 1TB usually provided. The device also runs on an Intel Core i3 processor which is still good for the next two to three years. Sadly, all these are powered by a weak 280w power supply. If more components are added, there is no choice but to change the supply.
