Compact gaming desktop

The HP ProDesk G2 small form factor desktop delivers a 6th generation Intel Core i5-6500 processor at 3.2 GHz with turbo up to 3.6 GHz. It pairs 16 GB of DDR4 memory with a 256 GB SSD and a 2 TB hard drive for fast boot and ample storage. An NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 graphics card with 2 GB DDR5 handles light gaming and 4K display output. The system includes a wired RGB keyboard and mouse and ships with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.

Casual gamers and office users

This configuration suits buyers who want a ready-to-play small desktop for esports titles and everyday productivity without building a system themselves. The compact chassis fits tight spaces and the included peripherals let you start immediately. Buyers who need more storage than the combined 256 GB SSD and 2 TB HDD provide should look elsewhere. Users targeting modern AAA games at high settings or workloads that demand a newer CPU architecture will not find the performance they need here.

GT 1030 2 GB DDR5 graphics

The discrete NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 with 2 GB of DDR5 video memory is the component that defines whether this desktop matches your gaming expectations. It supports 4K display via DisplayPort and handles lighter games at 1080p, but it lacks the power for current heavy titles at high detail. If your primary goal is entry-level gaming or multi-monitor productivity, this card fits; if you require higher frame rates in demanding games, a different graphics solution is necessary.

Questions about this item

Which accessories are included and which must be purchased separately?
