Triangular design to optimize layout
Experience a radical new approach to desktop computing. We re-engineered the traditional tower with efficiency and elegance in mind. With an 85% volume reduction compared to conventional towers, the HP Pavilion Wave is a compact, space-saving marvel. It's small enough to fit nearly anywhere, and powerful enough to handle any task you can give it.

Hard drive
The hard drive is located on another side of the triangle, storing important files, photos, music, and programs locally.

Motherboard & Thermals
Inside the triangular design, you'll find an optimized layout. On one side is the motherboard, with the processor, graphics card, and SSD.
The third side of the triangle houses the thermal system, with copper pipes that extract heat and blow it across cooling fins and out the top.

Audio by B&O PLAY
With audio custom tuned in collaboration with the experts at B&O PLAY, experience rich, authentic audio. Let the sound move you.
Audio fabric
The quality-woven exterior material was carefully created to allow for broad-spectrum audio transmission while retaining the texture and design appeal of fabric. The vented sides at the top of the device allow sound to project out.
