This is the latest desktop from Hp company with higher speed than old PCs.however this is currently a new desktop computer but later more models will arrive. P6180 is powered by Intel core 2 quad processor with 2.5 ghz and 4mb L2 cache,1.33 MHz FSB.There is an option for choosing the right processor for your needs you can even get 6mb cache for the processors Q9300,Q9400,Q9500,Q9550 but I suggest you to buy Q9550 processor because of this is very latest and that gives higher speed for programs.

Memory :
Hp p6180 t series comes with higher memory sticks you can choose the one which you need for higher speed performance.There are two options either you can use 6 GB or 8GB memory cards.From my suggestion you can get 8 GB memory card for the speed and you even get 35% off on this card.It is a DDR3 Ram with 1066mhz so this can give even more faster.For storing data you should first how much you need because many people don’t use the space in their hard drive but if you are using for multimedia and games then choose a bigger space.There are few options to choose the capacity you need,500GB,750GB and 1TB this is the largest hard drive on HP products.
Graphics:This is very important for designers and gamers since they need to edit images videos and childrens want to play games so choose the right graphic card for your needs.If you are looking for normal purpose then any graphic card is suitable.From my suggestion you can get Integrated graphics – Intel(R) Graphics Media Accelerator X4500 [VGA] or choose Nvidia card
Optical Drives :
There are two optical drives one is primary LightScribe 16X max. DVD+/-R/RW SuperMulti drive and the other is 16x max. DVD ROM (player)
Blu-ray ROM (player) which is the latest player for blu ray discs.Both are important to you and your family to get total entertainment.For networking Hp p6180t has a Lan card of Integrated 10/100/1000 (Gigabit) Ethernet,or you may use a wireless LAN card..There are options that you can even choose bluetooth so get the right one for your needs.Overall this is similar to p6120,p6150,p6100 series and have same feautures but just small change in processor hard drive etc.The front port is also same it has Usb connectors and a multimedia connector too even there is a 15 in 1 card reader
