💻 Renewed HP Elite 8300 Tower Desktop - Intel Quad Core i5, 16GB RAM, 2TB HDD, 120GB SSD, Windows 10 Pro, WiFi, HDMI, Bluetooth Review

This computer was shipped promptly and arrived in good condition. Good thing there were no viruses. Works and works as expected. Would have given 5 stars, but WLAN is not a USB plug installed in the tower and information could be a bit more open in the specs. But it works fine. An SSD drive as the boot device ensures a smooth experience right from the start. Knowledge of Windows 10 Pro (or a little research) is required to ensure the system is set up to properly write data to a larger regular…

I was setting up my computer today and the first thing I noticed was when I tried to sign in to my Microsoft account. A CODE number was required instead of a PIN which was required on my other computer with updated Win software. So I had to create a new account with a code number. I have several web browsers installed, as well as antivirus and registry software that I've been using for years. I went into settings to check for Win 10 updates I had. I installed them and rebooted. When the…

It says 2TB hard drive but when it arrived I found it wasn't even 1TB. A 110GB hard drive is all, the CD/DVD-ROM is slower than a 20 year old Windows XP CD-ROM, Bluetooth and WiFi don't connect to anything.

computer solely for my personal use. When you retire, the computer is your lifeline in the world. I've done extensive research and probably got everyone I know asking about updated and refurbished computers. So far, so good. I was only at the computer for two days, but it was an easy transition. The only drawback is that there is no power cord. Since most people have tons of these things, my son found one and hooked it up.

It was so easy to set up that my wife did it while I was at work. She usually expects things like that from me. It was packed/wrapped very well and lightning fast. My other HP hard drive from 2013 has failed. Instead of trying to replace it I just bought this one. The price and everything that goes with it is unbeatable. I am about to order a second one. I bought a 3 year protection in addition to the 90 day warranty.

The computer came in perfect packaging and with great care, with 2 inch bubble wrap around it. There are two dents on the top of the case, minor and acceptable. The case is clean inside and out and shines like new. On closer inspection you can see some wear in a few places, which is acceptable. The HP serial number sticker on the top is peeling and almost worn off, but the serial number sticker on the back is in excellent condition. After the computer was on for about 5 minutes, the room…

As advertised. I was concerned after seeing some reviews that some components were missing, but mine arrived exactly as described. Works great and really fast. I gave it 3 starts for games but that's only because it doesn't have a graphics card. I played Age of Empires from Steam and it worked great, but this game is narrated and easy to control. On the plus side, all you need on this computer is a graphics card and you're set to play any game. Bluetooth works well, but initially there were…

Blue screen crashed twice within 8 hours of installation. Wi-Fi connects to USB and has terrible range. Returned the next day. I blame myself for not buying a really new computer. I can't say anything about the internal components, they didn't open it. Dropping it so quickly/often didn't give us any reason to worry about the interior as we already knew we would be sending it back. Well, live and learn. At least I get a refund.

When I opened the box with my refurbished HP Elite 8300 Tower Desktop Computer, the first thing I noticed was the immaculate cleanliness. I opened the case and the inside looked like new. (I really love how the tower looks from the inside with all the luxurious space!) The cables were well routed and routed, and everything I expected was there. I bought this system as an upgrade, so I took a chance and installed the Windows 10 Pro SSD from my old system, plugged in a monitor, keyboard, mouse…
