Amazon.com Product Description
If you're looking for PC power, but you're on a budget, the HP Pavilion 725n offers a bount of features at a price that's nice. A great choice for cost-conscious home office users or as a family PC with multimedia capabilities, the 725n features 2.00 GHz Athlon XP 2400+ processor and comes loaded with a robust NVIDIA GeForce4 graphics card, 512 MB RAM, an 80 GB hard drive, and DVD-ROM and CD-R/W drives.

The Basics

• Hard Drive: The 80 GB Ultra DMA hard drive offers a decent amount of storage for all your documents, digital photos, and MP3 collection, but it is smaller than what is offered with the latest PCs.
• Processor: The 2.00 GHz Athlon XP 2400+ processor is comparable to a 2.40 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor. It provides enough processing power for power users on a budget and is acceptable enough for editing both digital photos and video.
• Memory: The 725n comes with a 512 MB built-in memory (2 x 256 MB DDR SDRAM, 333 MHz)--a good start for power users--with a maximum memory expansion up to 1 GB. It also has an L2 cache of 256 KB.
• CD/DVD Drive: It is equipped with separate drives for DVD playback and CD writing. The DVD-ROM drive can read discs at 16x speed (the standard speed for DVD movie playback), while the CD-R/W drive offers a high-speed 48x (read)/24x (rewrite)/ 48x (write) capability.
• Keyboard & Mouse: The 725n comes with a one-touch Internet keyboard and a two-button optical scrolling mouse with PS/2 connection.

This computer does not include a monitor.

You get a wide range of connectivity options with the 725n (including a floppy disk drive), including three PCI expansion slots (two available), one AGP (accelerated graphics port) slot and the following external ports:
