Active Blogs | Popular Blogs | Recent Blogs Offer a selection of Christmas is not easy, for there are things happening every year in computer and sort efficiently request and drop method. However, this is an essential exercise and PCWorld.fr can not override. We therefore reviewed the main components of a computer, such as processor, motherboard or graphics card. We did not try this year either machine ready, so there are many possibilities and contenteraient not one or the other, in addition to gush rivalries (AMD / Intel, AMD / Nvidia, ASUS / Gigabyte etc.).
It does not prevent you from setting up your dream with our selection of components. And if you have better plans and better ideas, do not hesitate to share them with other readers in the comments of the site is made for this. Note that the choice of "coup de coeur" is merely opinion writing, and that all HP Pavilion DV4 products listed in the tables below are those that we have selected, so all they are an excellent choice.
Processors
The heart of your configuration, bad puns, is the processor. It will then determine the choice of motherboard. The choice of processor is not to be taken lightly. Many will tell you that it has an impact on the use of configuration, and they will be right. But it also depends on the rest of the configuration, a powerful processor and a graphics card is too small will not allow in many cases to properly play the latest games in vogue. Conversely, a weak processor and a graphics card too powerful could also limit the final configuration in terms of performance. We must find the right balance in terms of their needs.

Both chips from the top of the table are useful for rendering intensive as Photoshop for example. But for a multimedia balanced configuration, we prefer an APU AMD A8-5600K which offers interesting computational power for a budget price. In this chip AMD signed a graphical part is already included to indulge in some games not too demanding, which will even play recent games by passing the latest graphic effects. In order to set up a uniform configuration and cheap - we do not speak of large workstation or Dell Inspiron 1525 PC gaming - this APU has established itself as a good solution.
Graphics cards
After the processor, we move to graphics cards. This is the second key element of a configuration that must choose at the time of purchase. Everything depends of course on the use to which it wishes to make his computer. It is in this context that we select four GPUs: two high cards of the range for players and two cards middle of the range around 200 € which will reach easily to run the latest games. Those who only surf or office without difficulty to satisfy a PGI.

Our choices may surprise, but this graphics card simple design will keep the load on the latest games for a budget of € 200 on average. The GeForce GTX 660 DirectCU II TOP Asus is sold € 30 more expensive and offers similar performance.
The battle will be between the two at the bundle that comes with these graphics cards. Examples include the program "Never Settle" AMD or operation Christmas Nvidia side. Everything depends on the games you want to have to buy the Inspiron 6000 battery graphics card.
Motherboards
As noted in our selection of processors, the choice of the motherboard from the choice of the chip that we will install it. Better to stick to our selection of processors, we therefore choose two motherboards for Intel LGA 1155 on a AMD FM2 and one for the AM3 +.

If we accept this motherboard, it is primarily for the quality of products that Asus is well established, and because it is perfectly paired with an AMD Vishera. But other motherboards in our selection are equally interesting for a competitive price. Particularly important is the motherboard market is large enough to satisfy everyone. Generally, these motherboards offer support for the latest technologies such as USB 3.0, SATA III or PCI-Express 3.0 to make the most of the components chosen to accompany them.
SSDs
These drives, so named by inheritance, will cut much computer sales this year. Should we still present? Simply put, this is storage modules based on NAND Flash, as flash drives, which combine speed read and write data, and a very short access time. The Pavilion DV2000 only criticism commonly leveled against SSDs for their low storage space. But the capacity increase and - most importantly - the price of 256 GB disks become really competitive. And for those who prefer, there are also hybrid solutions that exploient the SSD as a cache coupled with a HDD trays to keep a large storage capacity and benefit from improved responsiveness.
Once again, we cast our sights on the Crucial M4 256GB version because it displays a competitive price of 64 cents per GB could also slip into this table the Samsung 830 Series is a penny cheaper per gigabyte. Everything will depend on the affinity we have with one or the other brand. We add that the performance promised by the NAND Flash memory disks actually offer a boost to aging machine. Because, as we repeated each test SSD, using classic, it is almost impossible to see the difference between a good and a very good SSD. So if newer models are even faster than the M4 and other 830 Series, these models do exactly what is asked of them and are cheaper. 's All good.

Boxes
Well, for the rest of the configuration, the miss a RAM with an index of selling prices lower regardless of brand power (we recommend SeaSonic for the quality of their products), an optical drive we will let you choose according to your expectations, and possibly additional disk trays.
