The Best Computers For Office Work

The problem with trying to find the dell latitude e5420 battery, dell latitude e5520 battery best computers for office work is that “office work” is hard to define. An advertising agency will need a PC with high end graphics; an engineering company will nee one with advanced CAD/CAM capabilities and so on. So the only option is the try to define what makes a great computer for general office work – document preparation, data storage and management, number crunching and the other routine office functions. Among the factors to consider are:

Processors (CPUs)

The best processor available today is the Intel i7-980X Extreme Edition. It costs a packet, but this six core processor offers an unmatched level of performance that makes multi- tasking faster and easier than ever before. With a speed of 3.33 GHz a user can run a range of office applications and can switch from one to the other without ever having to wait for one application to catch up with the rest.

Memory (RAM)

First of all it has to be DDR3 – DDR2 RAM is obsolete and found only in low cost units. Keep in mind that while many applications require 1 GB or less of RAM to run, multi tasking requires a lot of memory. In most cases 4 GB of RAM fujitsu btp-b5k8 battery, fujitsu btp-c0k8 battery will handle most normal office requirements, but 8 GB will provide real speed and prevent any possibility of the system freezing due to low memory.

Hard Drives (HDDs)

For office use, you will need at least 500 GB of storage. But a second (perhaps remote) drive of equal capacity will allow for complete back up of all you data. While a 7,200 rpm drive is adequate, a high speed 10,000 rpm drive will improve performance significantly. They cost more, but the performance difference makes the additional outlay worthwhile.

Optical Drives

DVD burners that support both +R/RW and –R/RW formats are now standard for office computers. Getting Dual Layer media support is a worthwhile expense as these disks are now the mainstream storage medium. A Blu-Ray drive is a must if work involves the need for high definition video watching or storage.

Monitors

Office computers are used all day long so a big monitor not only allows for easier viewing, it reduces eye strain. It also makes viewing multiple documents / running applications much easier. The best option will be a 24 inch monitor with sony vgp-bps13/q battery, sony vgp-bps13/s battery the new 2:1 ratio that offers the best viewing experience.

The Best Computer

The above specs, along with a great video card, and enough (at least 6) USB 2.0 ports and at least one FireWire port are the best configuration for an office computer. Finding one that has all this will not be easy and involve buying a lot of extras to most basic configurations. For those who do not have the time or inclination to search, the HP Pavilion Elite e9290f is possibly the best buy.

It has an Intel i7 processor, 9 GB of DDR3 RAM, a 1 TB HDD and a DVD +R/RW optical drive. The nVidia GeForce GTX 260 graphics card ensures that both video and the largest spread sheet and engineering drawings are displayed crystal compaq presario cq70 keyboard, compaq presario cq71 keyboard clear. There is also a built in wireless networking adapter for easy network set up in the office.
