eMachines EL1352-10e

The eMachines EL1352-10e is a budget desktop computer paired with a 20" widescreen LCD. The tower's small footprint makes it a good option for consumers tight on space. The EL1352-10e utilizes a low-power AMD Athlon II processor clocking in at 2.0GHz and 3GB of DDR3 memory (holding a maximum of 4GB).

Like most sub-$500 desktops, it lacks a discrete graphics chip. The EL1352-10e supports high-definition, 5.1-channel audio, and comes with 320GB of storage capacity. Windows 7 Home Premium comes pre-installed. The ET1831-07 represents a step up in performance, offering an Intel processor and 750GB of hard drive space, though not including a display.
