Back to School PC Base Station

This are onsale ThursdaY:

• AMD Athlon™ II X4 620 quad core processor 2.60GHz, 2MB L2 Cache
• ATI Radeon™ HD 4200 graphics
• 3GB (3,072MB) DDR3 SDRAM
• Multiformat DVD/CD burner1 supports all the usual DVD/CD standards, including dual layer DVD-R and DVD+R
• Wireless LAN IEEE 802.11n-standard technology with up to 300Mbit/s., 802.11b/g compatible2
• 1TB (1,000GB) hard disk for more than 200,000 songs or photos3
• Network controller Ethernet LAN (10/100/1,000MBit/s.)

It doesn't look too bad - especially for €500. It doesn't have a dedicated Graphics Card but IGPs are getting better.

I really like to know what Ram/PCIe slots etc it has. Any idea how I could find out what the Motherboard is..

Thanks for that.

Opion seems to be that its not great a deal as others from Aldi. (I think its the 3gigs/no Graphic card)

Its integrated.

You can buy a pretty great nvidia gt(x?)460 for under €200 now...
