Never buy already assembled PC. You pay more for worse components. Problems with that HP desktop?

- Motherboard is from MSI - solid company. BUT, this specific part is manufactured only for HP. I heard that, in USA, trustworthy companies sometimes produce shit meant to be sold at Walmart, at low price (clothes for example). This is it. Only 4 USB ports in PC that expensive? It's not even funny.

- RAM. They don't even mention manufacturer there. Most of them give lifetime warranty on their memory. Unless it's cheap shit made for HP to use.

- Power supply. It's what's keeping all the other parts fed. You really don't want to save money on this one. HP probably does, but you can't even see if that's the case. Manufacturer don't mentioned.

- Graphic card - why reference model, when there are much better options, like ASUS and MSI? Faster and with better cooling system?

- SSD - 256GB ones are really affordable now. And you can buy them from Samsung, or Kingston, no need to care about HP no-names!

- I bet money on hard drive being Seagate. Seriously, I do. What's wrong with Seagate? One out of four of their HDDs fails after a year. But Hitachi, or WD instead.

All HP does here is sticking a logo and ridiculous price. And it's not even trustworthy company, read up how many of their laptops failed in the past couple of years.
