Description:
As one of the more affordable models in Sony's wide-ranging "Digital Studio" line of PCs, the VAIO PCV-RZ32G Desktop offers high-end performance and exceptional multimedia capabilities at a considerably more palatable price point than that of power-packed siblings such as the VAIO PCV-RX34G. Capable yet relatively economical, the VAIO PCV-RZ34G could be just the ticket for those who use their computer for entertainment as well as productivity. Outfitted with a reasonably fast 2.6 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor, 512 MB of premium PC-2700 333 MHz DDR memory (expandable to a whopping 2 GB), and a blazing 800 MHz front side bus, the VAIO PVC-RZ32G is ready for all but the most demanding 2-D chores. For improved performance in state-of-the-art 3-D applications such as games, animation and graphic design, users may wish to upgrade the enclosed 64 MB nVidia GeForce4 X440-8x video chipset. When it comes to storing, transferring and accessing your valuable data, the VAIO PCV-RZ32G has you covered. The system is fitted with a beefy 80 GB hard disk, a 3.5-inch diskette drive for older or smaller applications, a 40-speed CD-ROM drive for listening to audio CDs and installing programs, and a DVD-RW/CD-RW drive that allows you to burn audio CDs, archive information, watch the latest Hollywood blockbusters and create your own DVDs. To ensure fast interaction with peripherals such as digital camcorders, scanners and external drives, the unit features a total of eight high-speed USB 2.0 ports and a pair of IEEE 1394 FireWire connectors -- one each on the front and rear. The VAIO PCV-RZ32G sports numerous other amenities, including a VGA/DVI port for flat-panel displays, an S/PDIF out, two PS/2 ports, a pair of freestanding stereo speakers, a handy VAIO Smart keyboard, and a thorough package of business, leisure and entertainment software. A monitor is not included with this computer.
