Description:
For those who require the ultimate in power and speed or anyone who simply enjoys being on the cutting edge of computer technology, the Sony Vaio PCV-RX750 de sktop computer is built to please. With a furiously fast processor, massive hard drive, and support for both CD and DVD playback and CD recording, the Vaio PCV-RX750 will handle most any business, multimedia, or entertainment application with plenty of room to spare. You'll pay a little more for this level of performance, and even then you'll have to furnish your own monitor, but very few pre-assembled computers on the market today are this well endowed. At the heart of the system lies an Intel Pentium 4 processor. But not just any Pentium 4--this is a high-flying 2 GHz P4 chip with 512 KB of Level 2 cache. Sony has matched this extremely potent CPU with 256 MB of fast PC800-40 DDR RAM (upgradable to 1 full GB) and plopped the whole works on a new 533 MHz bus motherboard. A 32 MB SiS650 video card handles the graphics processing. Suffice to say that Sony's top-of-the-line desktop will efficiently run any program currently in release and quite probably any appearing in the near future. But the Vaio PCV-RX750 offers far more than raw power. The system features an exceptional variety of data storage and media options, including a 60 GB hard disk. Users can play DVDs, record and play audio CDs, and archive massive quantities of data on the unit's combination DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive. Fittingly, the Vaio PCV-RX750 is packed with advanced connectivity options, including an optical-out for Dolby Digital audio, two IEEE 1394 ports (one on the rear and one placed conveniently on the front of the system case) for high-speed uploads and downloads from DV- and disc-based camcorders and other video devices, and a Memory Stick media slot for fast transfers of digital photographs and large files. Other connections include four USB ports (two front, two rear), a serial printer port, parallel port, headphone and microphone jacks, oodles of standard audio ins and outs, and S-video support. A V.90 data/fax modem delivers low-speed Internet access and remote information movement, and a 10 Base-T/100Base-TX Fast Ethernet card affords high-speed e-mail and surfing. The system also features a handy PS/2 wheel mouse, a Vaio Smart keyboard, and a pair of speakers for accurate broadcast of stereo audio signals. Sony has equipped this very proficient PC with a ton of pre-installed software, including Microsoft's Windows XP Home Edition operating system, Corel WordPerfect Office 2002, Intuit Quicken 2002, and nearly a dozen useful photo, video, and audio tools and utilities. If top-level performance, masterful speed, and support for the latest multimedia devices are critical attributes in your next computer, the Sony Vaio PCV-RX750 desktop is a wise choice.
