Today, HP announced several new desktops at affordable prices. The new computers include the HP Pavilion Slimline s5000 series, HP Pavilion p6000 series, the HP Pavilion Elite e9000 series, and the Compaq Presario CQ5000.

Basically, it also operates on Windows Vista Home Basic edition, runs on an AMD Sempron Single Core LE1300 processor, features 2GB DDR2 memory as well as 320GB hard drive.

Moving on, we have the Pavilion Elite e9000 series, which is more advanced than the two previous computer lines. First off, it operates on a 64 bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium. It runs on an AMD Phenom II X2 545 Dual core processor, sports 4GB DDR3 RAM, 500GB hard drive, 15-in-1 memory card reader, and has a dedicated 512MB NVIDIA GeForce G210 graphics card.

Since it features higher-end specs, the price is also higher, as it will cost you $599. The $899 computer in this lineup features 6GB RAM and a 750GB hard, just to list a few details. Lastly, we have the Compaq Presario CQ5110F Desktop, which will sell for $379.
