    The highly rated HP Pavilion Slimline PC thread

    Yeah, the 4550 is great for last-gen games, but it's not going to get max settings on all of them either. Like I said before the only game I play on a regular basis is world of warcraft, which will run on everything maxed. It CAN play Crysis :eek: But you have to have everything on low for it to...

    I think I'm going to go with the MSI GeForce 9400 GT. It's cheaper, I'm assuming uses less power, and I'm going to be putting together an i7 build here soon so no sense in splurging on the slimline :P s3421p Athlon 64x2 5200+ 2.7GHz Stock 160w PSU Nvidia 6150SE (ewww) (Would removing the Modem...

    So my understanding is I can fit the SEASONIC PS SS-400H1U 400w PSU $100 Sparkle 9800GT Low-Pro $115 And add some fans externally, it would all fit? I've been searching through this thread all day but I still can't lock in to some specific notes. What needs to be...
