HP Pavilion a6460t Review - PC Mag

A review of the HP Pavilion a6460t desktop PC has been posted over at PC Magazine. 'The HP Pavilion a6460t has hardware galore—a 2.5-GHz Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 quad-core Yorkfield processor (based on Intel 's latest 45nm microprocessor architecture), 2GB of 800-MHz DDR2 memory, an nVidia GeForce 8400 graphics card, a DVD burner, an HDTV-compatible ATSC TV tuner, and a 500GB hard drive. There's an HP-branded MCE remote with an external IR receiver. As a measure of the progress of technology, all this gear would have cost two to three times as much back in 2006.

The a6460t sits in a fairly attractive if utilitarian case. The chassis is reasonably open inside, with space for two additional 3.5-inch hard drives and one 5.25-inch optical drive. Likewise, there are two free DIMM slots and space for one PCI and one PCIe x1 expansion card. The internal wiring, though tie-wrapped, is a bit of a rat's nest that could impede the internal cooling airflow a bit. You'll also need a screwdriver to install additional expansion cards or hard drives. We prefer tool-less designs that are easier for the end user to service.'
