Product description

Compaq Presario SR5550F Desktop PC

Features

Enhance productivity: The Compaq Presario SR5550F includes essential features for helping you get the job done with less effort. With a powerful dual-core AMD processor and premium features including high-end video memory, a 15-in-1 media card reader, LightScribe Technology and a DVD SuperMulti drive, this desktop will help you perform complex tasks quickly and easily.

Dual-core processing: The 2.8GHz AMD Athlon X2 5400 Dual-Core processor has two processing engines that work in tandem, providing much more power than traditional 2.8GHz single-core models.

  • This desktop features 3GB of DDR2 system memory—enough for the most demanding users, gamers and multimedia professionals. DDR2 is slightly faster than DDR, the previous standard in system memory.

  • AMD employs HyperTransport technology, which works like a fully-integrated frontside bus that increases bandwidth, reduces bottlenecks and enables processors to work more efficiently. The end result is better performance.

  • Processors search for the same data over and over. L2 caches keep this data neat, organized, and nearby so it can be retrieved more quickly. This 1MB L2 cache gives the processor a little boost.

Hard drive: This spacious hard drive features a 500GB capacity—perfect for music, movies and multimedia. This drive’s data disks spin at 7200rpm, providing faster-than-average access to your files.

DVD SuperMulti drive: Use this drive to burn DVDs and CDs to share your files, music mixes or home movies. You can even burn DVD-RAM discs—specially-formatted discs that let you drag and drop, or write and rewrite your files up to 100,000 times.

LightScribe disc-labeling: Burn custom, silkscreen-quality labels and images onto your discs with the same drive that burns the data.

Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (32-bit): Windows Vista Home Premium is the operating system for homes with advanced computer needs. And Vista Premium features the elegant new Aero interface. You’ll be able to use your desktop more effectively and enjoy new entertainment experiences—all with the benefit of added security and reliability.

Audio/video: The SR5550F features the NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE graphics card with TurboCache and 128MB of dedicated video memory, an addition to the main system memory, with a total of 1343MB available graphics memory. This is great for games or watching movies and videos. The high definition audio capabilities will support up to eight speakers for realistic reproduction of your music and soundtracks.

15-in-1 media card reader: Seamlessly transfer images from your digital camera, MP3 player or camcorder. This extremely versatile 15-in-1 reader is compatible with Smart Media, CompactFlash I/II, Secure Digital, mini Secure Digital, xD, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, Memory Stick Duo, Memory Stick Pro Duo, MicroDrive, MultiMedia Card (MMC), Reduced Size-MMC, MMCplus and MMCmobile.

Software bundle:
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium, Works 9 and Office Home and Student Edition 2007 (60-day trial)
Norton Internet Security 2008 (with 60 days of live update)
Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.0
CyberLink DVD Suite Deluxe

works well
Reviewer: yam from PA on Jul 23, 2008

This computer works fine. It runs all the sofware I have loaded into it well. As far as comments about no printer port I have not had a computer in years that has the old fashioned port on it. The computer does have six USB slots and that is what modern printers are attached to.
