HP Pavilion Slimline s5120f

The HP Pavilion Slimline s5120f is a solid budget desktop that runs circles around its low-powered nettop cousins.

Compact design. Some bloatware comes not installed. Inexpensive. Better equipped and more capable than compact nettops and netbooks at this price point.

Internal expansion possibilities curtailed by small case. No FireWire, eSATA, or Media Drive bay. Weak integrated graphics.

HP Pavilion Slimline s5120y review: HP Pavilion Slimline s5120y

HP Pavilion Slimline s5120y

Friendly-looking new design.

Less upgrade room than competition despite its larger size; too-spare connectivity options; lackluster performance.

As much as we've appreciated HP's efforts in bringing the slim tower to the mainstream, we cannot recommend this off-the-shelf Pavilion Slimline s5120y. Even considering its low price, its design, features, and performance all come up short next to its...

Not too bad.

Overall, not too bad. It's worth a hundred less than it's sold for, but meh. Lower end games, school work or just a media machine? This isn't a bad choice then.

It's a decent machine for lower end games and office work, etc. With just on board video it handles these games quite well

The small size makes upgrading your video card and power supply very difficult. The power supply is a custom fit, and in order to make a worthwhile upgrade you'd have to mod your case

Really excellent desktop

Would be nice to have a slot for a wireless connection

Excellent product. Includes Windows 7 upgrade. Just the device for a home or small office environment. Newegg and HP has a winner with this desktop computer. Pay a small fee for priority handling, shipped same day as ordered and received 2 days...

Not upgradeable

Great Value!

Needed a small computer that fited in a very small space, but one that still has decent memory and all the things a desktop computer should offer. This one is beyond perfect. Very great quality with the computer being an HP for the price~around $400....

Great Performer!

Never thought I would go for an HP or an AMD Athlon product but decided to on a gut feeling instead of so so reviews of friends with HPs. I have a dual Athlon at work, which is another reason I chose it and it does not disappoint. Another reason was...
