Source: productwiki.com	Compaq Presario CQ5210F The Compaq Presario CQ5210F is an entry-level Windows 7 desktop featuring a 2.7GHz AMD Athlon dual-core processor, 3GB of RAM, and a 500GB SATA hard-disc drive. It boasts enough room for plenty of PCI/PCI-e card expansion, but only hosts two DIMM slots (which are already full), only one hard-drive bay, and a relatively weak 250W power supply. Included are Nvidia GeForce 6150se integrated graphics, which are sufficient for web-browsing and basic-level games, but definitely not strong enough to handle recently released (2009+) high-definition video games or films. Additional features include a DVD burner, standard Ethernet, and a modem for just in case. Features Entry-Level Desktop Windows 7 OS AMD Athlon Dual-Core DDR2 RAM SATA HDD PCI/PCI-e Expansion Integrated Graphics DVD Burner Standard Ethernet 56K Modem Specifications OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Processor: AMD Athlon II X2 215 Dual-Core Memory: 3GB DDR2 SDRAM Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 6150 SE (256MB) HDD: 500GB ... PROS: (1) runs stable for a long time, hard to get it to crash (2) can handle applications and web pages all at once without lagging (3) solid construction of the case keeps everything safe and secure (4) PCI-E expansion slot can be used for a high-end video card that will handle higher end video games with ease (5) fans are super quiet, generally wont hear them at all ... CONS: (1) have to go through a registry process when you turn it on, cant just plug it in and start working (2) doesnt come with a wireless card, either need to use wired Ethernet or install a wireless card yourself Read Full Review
