hp hpe 250f versus hp hpe 270f I've been looking at these two desktop computers and the only difference I can tell is that the 250 has the i7 860 processor and the 270 has the i7 930. The 270f seems like it is always out of stock (at Amazon anyway). Any idea if there is a major difference between the two - they are about the same price? Are they about the same or is one better than the other? hp hpe 250f versus hp hpe 270f I've been looking at these two desktop computers and the only difference I can tell is that the 250 has the i7 860 processor and the 270 has the i7 930.

I like the idea of having a eSATA port. Do you think you could add one to the 250? Also do you think 16 is enough RAM. I noticed the 270 holds up to 24. Any additional input on which system is better?Thanks

According to the specs (for what they are worth), the 250 actually has faster memory (10300 vs 885), but the 270 has 6 cores as compared to 4. If the 270 actually had the faster DDR 3 memory, it would in theory be a significantly faster machine. Of course, at these speeds, an SSD hard drive for your system and program software would probably speed up the machine much more than the extra two cores, but unless you are using software that does serious number crunching (hard core gaming, graphics, or music or video production software), you will probably never even care.

There are 2 open PCI Express 1x slots in the HPE-250f, so yes, you can buy a card that will provide two eSATA ports (and even IDE support for a floppy or older DVD-ROM drive ...). Such a card would typically cost less than $25. Check out the link belowhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816132014Sixteen Gb RAM is huge. The HPE-250f appears to be a good value, but realize that there is only room to add one more hard-drive inside the case, and adding cooling to the case is not possible either.

It is a Pentium which is supposed to be the best. I don't really understand the differences between them but my husband gave his approval with this one. By the way, you will have to purchase Microsoft Office software since it can not be transferred from one computer to another. I found this out the hard way.

I installed in HP 2730p 6 months ago & it works great, faster, cooler are some of the benefits. I would have preferred higher capacity but they seem to have stopped making the larger, about double the capacity, SSD. It should work, but don't know specifically if it will work for the Dell, but I suggest that you at least partially remove the old orig hard drive to see if anything physically unusual about it such as connector adapter used or not. Other than that I don't see why it wouldn't work...also mine had Vista on it originally so I upgraded to Win 7 64 immediately, which made it very easy to set up.

Valerie, the difference between the two versions is that the one without the fan is only 512MB of ram, whereas the one with the fan is TWICE that amount of ram, being 1024MB ( 1G ), which needs a fan. The more ram you have, the more heat, but most importantly is the more ram you have the higher the resolution you can get ! Both are fine, just depends on what you want. My preference is always for more ram, and a fan ! Hopes this helps you out Valerie, and happy shopping here on Amazon !

I honestly don't know. Perhaps you should try contacting HP. My gut instinct tells me that it doesn't replace the 7510 but I won't swear to it. If you have a Staples or Office Max near you, you should either go there or give them a call. They should know. Sorry!

From what I've read all over the web, and since doing a 7525 search on HP.com sends you to 7520 documents, there appears to be no difference. The 7525 is sold at Costco and Sams Club - so maybe it's just a marketing ploy.

I don't believe there are any differences besides the clock speed. Everything seems identical (same chipset, RAM size/speed, disk model, wireless model, etc) and the only difference the i7-4510u has is an increased clock multiplier. I can say that 1.8 GHz base clock has proven more than enough for anything I need from this computer (read: educational Solidworks, light games/transcoding, productivity, 50+ tabs), and combined with the ssd and ample RAM, I doubt the difference would be significant unless you had heavy single-threaded workloads. It seems that this model has been marked down more because people rarely look at the clock speeds, and this is the cheapest i7 model (also the cheapest with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, my constraints); the market for the other one would be more professional.

I would really recommend you go w/ an Antec (they're extremely reliable, trust me). I checked out the specs for your hp elite, that's a nice machine, I wouldn't risk it for this Corsair. I bought this psu and it sizzled out w/in the first six weeks. I replaced it w/ an Antec 900w from here on amazon, and have had amazing performance and lower electric bills. Plus, if I ever need to upgrade, I'll have plenty of power to do so. > Antec High Current Gamer HCG-900, 80 PLUS BRONZE, 900 Watt Power Supply (it's on sale now for 117.00, which is a killer deal considering that I paid close to $200 for mine).

I saw the lower numbered models at Frys this weekend. They didnt have the L117FX/B. I played around with it briefly and the touch screen was more responsive than the HP all-in-one model. All the HP's had Vista and DVD drives for about the same price as the Sony, which had blu-ray and Windows 7. Although I dont think I would use the touch screen much (don't like the smudged screens), I did like the look and build of the Sony. Everything seemed to be built a bit better than the HP. I can't wait for the reviews to come out...

I only own the 2540, but just scanning the specs, it seems as if the 2542 is faster. I can't see any other notable difference: both offer wireless connectivity and the ability to do basic printing jobs as well as scanning and copying. They use the same inks, and the printing & scanning resolution seems similar. You may want to ask HP what the differences between them are (vs whether they are basically the same device). The paper feed on the 2542 may be different? But I can't tell without having one here, and suspect that many others out there own either one or the other but not both, and so may have a tough time addressing this question.

Hi Hector. Yes, the HP Prime has a very nice, and very fast programming language similar to other versions of Basic. It has 32 MB of "standard" memory, and 256MB of Flash memory. I've been programming it for awhile, and the amount of memory doesn't even cross my mind. It would take a huge number of very big programs to use it up. HP set it up to suggest people create "apps", which are a collection of programs, notes, and other views to create a complete application. I tend to like programming it more directly, kind of old-school style, where the programs are more stand-alone, with their own IO to get the job done. But both approaches work well.

To clarify a bit more. It is an Intel i3-4130T (not just the 4130) there is a difference! The 4130 is a 3.4Ghz (NOT in this model). This model is installed with the 4130T clocked at 2.9Ghz ~ Amazon needs to clarify this in the description as well!

The BA Plus/Pro is much faster, more accurate, and cheaper than the HP 12C. It is also much more user-friendly as HP 12 C uses reverse polish notation and the BA Plus Pro uses algebraic notation. You simply cannot go wrong with the BA Plus Pro. If you don't need a calculator as advanced and you just need basic finance such as TVM, etc, the BA Plus is a better choice.

The processor in the AO722 is a C-60 where as the AO725 is a C-70. Also, the AO725 comes with 2 gigs more RAM stock. This link for the C-70 processor helps explain the minor difference between the processors: http://www.notebookcheck.net/AMD-C-Series-C-70-Notebook-Processor.82852.0.html
