The kit comes with 8 GB of DDR4 2133 MHz RAM and a discrete graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GT 710 with 2 GB of its own video memory.

The Chinese brand Lenovo has firmly established itself in the market of ready-made system blocks for the home, and one of the most interesting models is the relatively inexpensive IdeaCentre 510S-07ICK PC, based on a 4-core Intel Core i3 9100 CPU with a base clock speed of 3.6 GHz. In addition, this desktop computer immediately received 8 GB of DDR4 RAM, but part of it is reserved for the needs of the integrated graphics core Intel UHD Graphics 630. However, the main trump card of the model is a bunch of 128 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD, i. initially there is a better disk for the OS and a lot of free space for movies or games.

As for the opinions of buyers, negative reviews for this assembly are very rare and are often associated with minor quibbles that were not taken into account when planning the purchase. For example, the Slim case form factor, which complicates the selection of components when upgrading, or the lack of a Wi-Fi module.

In general, it turned out to be a good system unit for home or office, capable of pulling most of the games of recent years, at least at graphics settings slightly below average. With working software, including graphics packages, this computer does an excellent job, as eloquently indicated by customer reviews, which also note the durability of the hardware used. Among the obvious shortcomings, we highlight the limited upgrade potential and only a year of factory warranty.

Demanded on the market and inexpensive model with an excellent balance of price / performance, which is separately emphasized in user reviews.This PC is based on a fairly powerful Intel Core i3 9100 processor with 4 cores of 3.6 GHz each and the ability to auto-overclock to 4.2 GHz. The video card is integrated here - Intel UHD Graphics 630 and eats up part of the RAM for its needs, and the RAM in the base is only 4 GB, but there is an expansion slot. Another interesting feature is that it only comes with a 128 GB SSD, so you will have to buy or use an external HDD.

As for sensitive shortcomings, the key lies in the layout of the case, made in a compact Slim form factor, which is why when upgrading or replacing a broken hardware, the range of available options is sharply limited. Otherwise, this system unit is perfectly balanced and is ideal for those who use the computer for work needs, and not for games.

Inexpensive mid-ranger for home or office with decent hardware on board: Intel Core i3-9100F processor with 4 cores of 3.6 GHz each, 4 GB of DDR4 2400 MHz RAM, upgradable up to 32 GB, 1 TB HDD and NVIDIA GeForce discrete graphics card GT 1030 with 2 GB of internal memory, so this system unit is quite suitable for rendering short videos, as well as for quietly running undemanding games.A bonus is a built-in Wi-Fi module, a card reader and a stylish case in dark colors with a patterned front panel, which houses four USB ports.

A typical mid-budget and at the same time inexpensive home PC with a good balance of hardware used: it is based on a 4-core Intel Core i3-10100 processor with a clock speed of 3.6 GHz, which is complemented by a discrete graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 (2 GB of memory), 4 GB of "high-speed" DDR4 2666 MHz RAM and a set of disks - a 120 GB SSD for installing the OS and a 2 TB HDD for everything else. The result is a great option for home or office, providing an acceptable level of performance for a wide range of tasks: office software, working in graphic editors, watching 3D video and gaming without requests for a top image.

We also note a rich set of ports / connectors: three USB 3.0 (one on the front panel), six USB 2.0, one VGA, DVI-D, HDMI, RJ-45, and even a set of two outdated PS / 2, i.e. this desktop system unit will allow you to connect a lot of peripherals, and support for 7.1-channel sound will make it possible to build an excellent home theater.

A fairly powerful desktop computer for the home, receiving good reviews from customers who praise the model for shipping with Windows 10 Home version preinstalled, which is very rare in this price segment.

At the same time, the capabilities of this relatively inexpensive assembly are easily increased already at the time of purchase due to an additional RAM bar, the total amount of which can be increased up to 32 GB.
