Going into this knowing that this is lower spec hardware and is a workstation or lower end beginner gaming computer. So I base my information knowing this. You cannot compare this to a $2500 computer because it isn't. I base this review off what I paid for it.The good:  I was surprised by the 1650 super. The current day games play excellent as long as you keep your graphical settings conservative. The 10100 CPU is far better than I expected for a low core count. Don't walk past this CPU without taking a look. I do a lot of PCB design that's somewhat CPU intensive. This CPU it's practically sleeping while I'm doing my work because it doesn't even need to try. The efficiency and ability to divide its workload is absolutely fantastic for such a low end CPU. It's multitasking ability is amazing for the price.The bad:  Really HP? 1 ram stick?  It's such a stupid oversight. The manufacturing of desktops is such a simple task nowadays. It requires a very simple set of rules. Using only one RAM stick regardless of its size forces the RAM to be in single-channel mode. This severely hinders the entire computer. Having 8 gigabyte of RAM is not a bad thing if it was two 4 gig sticks. But it was one 8 gig stick. The novice user is not going to know that this is holding this desktop back by huge numbers. Needless to say an extra 8 gig stick and bumping it up to 16 gigabytes of memory cost me 40 bucks and is worth every penny. Opened up this computer even more and turned into a little monster.  My only other real issue with this computer is storage. I knew what I was buying, so this was not a surprise. Games today are HUGE in size and that little hard drive is not going to hold more than a couple modern games at a time. We know you're making allot of profit on this machine especially since you use your own cut down motherboards and other parts. So throw in a second mechanical 1 or 2 terabyte hard drive! It would cost you next to nothing and make this desktop so much more appealing.. Advertising this computer as a gaming computer but it barely has the capacity to hold any games? I owned a few spare hard drives so I tossed one in on the READY TO USE WIRING THAT CAME IN THE COMPUTER! It's almost as if you were going to do this but then took the hard drive out at the last minute.Overall:  7/10 for beginner gaming computer or workstation. Those two things in the cons would have made this a 9.5/10 for the price. Just saying.  In current times for a pre-built I still have to give the go ahead and buy this desktop if it meets your standards. Do yourself a favor and buy a cheap DDR4 3200mhz 8gig ram stick and make it the first thing you install even before you power on the computer. You will be much much happier.
