HP Pavilion Elite HPE-500f PC (Black)
Fantastic rig, though. Runs quick and quietly. Enjoy!
After running Windows Update (SP1, etc), updating the BIOS and chipset drivers over the course of 6 hours or so, startup and shutdown times improved compared to the out of the box configuration.
Time from power on to login prompt decreased from 58 seconds to 49 seconds.
Time from login to launching IE 9 and getting a URL prompt with Google as a home page decreased from 26 to 15 seconds.
Shutdown time decreased from 26 seconds to 17 seconds.
You can find drivers more recent than what HP offers by searching the web for the following:
AMD South Bridge and AHCI driver
win7 rtl8100e 2011 software utilities
Ralinktech RT309x mPCI 2011 win7 support
I have been trying out an Nvidia 9600GSO video card in the HPE-500f and have observed that the chassis is too small to dissipate heat well. It does fine with the stock Radeon 6450 which is a tiny card. However, a larger gaming card blocks airflow through the center of the case.
For example, the 9600GSO max temperature running Furmark 1.9.1 from within an Antec Solo minitower was 71 Celsius. Idle temp was 55 C. The 9600GSO max temperature running Furmark 1.9.1 from within the HPE-500f teeny tiny tower was 85 Celsius. I reduced the temperature to 83 C by removing slot covers adjacent to the 9600GSO. Idle temp was 66 C. The ambient temperature was 23 C.
I conclude that only low power video cards are tolerable in the HPE-500f. It is what it is.
