HP Compaq d530 desktops are considered average by reviewers, but these computers are designed to meet the needs of call centers and customer service operations. They come with headsets, pivoting monitors and a carrying handle for mobility. Don't expect to run high-end software on the original memory; however, the good news is you can expand the memory. Perhaps best known for its black and silver slim case, the HP Compaq d530 Desktop computer can sit upright or flat.
HP's Integrated Work Center Stand saves space with all the cables running sideways behind the monitor, and employees can adjust the monitor for vertical height. The Hewlett Packard d530 runs on a 2.8GHz Pentium 4 and 256MB. The HP d530 also has a 40GB hard drive and Intel Extreme Graphics 2 chip, which isn't enough to run games after work hours. Things to consider before purchasing one of these computers:
1. Buy a refurbished HP desktop c530 to save money.
2. Upgrade memory to revive your existing Compaq d530 computer.
3. Download software and patches for your HP Compaq d530 ultra-slim desktop.
