   Powerhouse PC Gets the Job Done!
   What a super PC! I was pleasantly surprised and I am glad that I made the purchase. This PC is used for working from home and I needed a computer that would be able to keep up with the software programs being used for work, and this PC was up to the challenge. I can also play games if I choose to, which is a bonus. The only issue was that the power cord that was included with the PC was flimsy and would not stay connected in the pack of the PC. Luckily, I keep cables and cords just in case and I was able to swap out the cable for one that I owned. The other issue was when I contacted someone for assistance in an attempt to have them send me a better cord, I was told that they did not have the capability to replace the cord. Outside of those two situations, I was more than satisfied with this PC purchase and I would purchase another Acer.

   Works great for OBS streaming
   We purchased two of these last year for our churches new A/V system. They work great and easily handles video encoding with the discreet graphics card. The machines are also very quiet (as opposed to the cheaper model with an integrated gpu, which was crazy loud and had to be returned). I recommend this computer but you can definitely find machines with more recent hardware (newer cpu and gpu) for less money now…

   Fast machine, happy so far
   I bought this computer to supplement and perhaps eventually replace an older one that has a lot of outdated components. I have had Acers in the past and they worked well for me so I figured I’ve give it a shot.The computer itself is fast and quiet, both things I appreciate. It’s not small but a little more compact than a traditional tower which is also nice considering I need to maximize my space.While it doesn’t have the biggest hard drive, the fact that it is a SSD makes a huge difference in performance.I did run into a problem when I tried to plug my VGA monitor cord into it and found that the pc has no VGA port. This was my fault for not checking that first but I was surprised that a typical pc might not have that option. I ended up buying a VGA to HDMI adapter.

   Excellent generic desktop box.
   Needed a desktop box for general home use after an old PC died.This was a good buy on sale and works great. It’s small enough to stay on the table. Instead of the floor.Super easy to set up and not full of useless programs. It still needed some minor cleaning out of pre-installed junk.

   Super fast and very happy with its performance!
   I use this computer for surfing the web and occasional use for work. I did upgrade the ram to 32gb and added 1tb to hard disk space. Its just simply fast and I do what I need to in minimum time. Very satisfied! And its quiet.

   Anti-Consumer
   Warning: Uses an anti-consumer proprietary connectors. This PC is made to be non-repairable and non-upgradable. You cannot add any modern graphics card to this computer. Unless you’re only intending to give this computer to your grandparents to check their email, this computer is going to be in a landfill in a few years. It cannot be serviced nor upgraded by normal means.There are many anti-consumer tricks here, and I’m so sad that reviewers aren’t pointing them out. For instance, the motherboard of this computer is made to a nonstandard size so it won’t fit in most cases. This includes that the front panel I/O is built onto the motherboard. If you don’t know what that means, imagine that you want to move into a new house. But you find out the company that makes the kitchen appliances like the fridge has connected big brackets from the fridge all the way to your front and back doors. So nobody can ever fix the fridge if there’s a problem. But they also can’t ever fix the doors either. One company controls the whole thing, end to end, and they get to dictate terms to you.I could go on. Bad deals:Acer proprietary motherboard connector means you cannot connect any normal power supply to this computer. If you ever have a problem, you’re locked into Acer’s service department for life. For tech people, it’s a nonstandard 6-pin connector, specifically made so you cannot swap in any normal power supply, even one from Dell or HP, even if the power supply itself is the exact same part. Even if you connect a normal power supply, the fans would spin forever and the power supply will draw energy until you unplug it.300W power supply is woefully underpowered. You cannot upgrade this computer with normal parts like a graphics card. The computer is going to be a paperweight in a few years, because it cannot be upgraded.Non-standard parts. The motherboard is intentionally constructed so you can’t move it to a new computer if there is a problem. If your case gets banged up, or you have some other problem with your hardware, Acer is going to try to force you to use their service plans, and probably force you to buy a new computer since they’re going to stop making all these parts as soon as they develop a new model.Lack of power, lack of connectors, and lack of space all mean it’s basically impossible to connect any modern graphics card to this computer. Without a graphics card, you’re going to struggle just playing basic games like Fortnite. The computer basically has one hand tied behind its back, so even though the included parts are strong, they’ll never work like they should for any graphics-intensive process (gaming, 3d modeling, and so on).Overall:This computer is basically built for elderly people, schools, and other settings where the most the computer is going to be asked to do in its lifetime is browse the internet or write some documents. You are supposed to throw it away the moment it has problems, and buy a whole new one. For a lot of computer users like me, that’s not okay. I want to be able to fix my computer if something goes wrong, and I need to be able to upgrade my computer with basic parts like a graphics card. This computer is incapable of that. I cannot recommend it whatsoever. The only people who should buy this are people looking to buy 300 cheap workstations for a school, and they probably want the lack of upgrade options so people won’t try to steal them and resell them.

   Love it
   I upgraded from a small laptop to this desktop. It’s got all of the speed I need. My only complaint would be. I wish it had a built-in speaker.

   Very easy to setup. Fast and no issues. Only thing to be aware of is there are limited options to upgrade (this was the only reason for 4 stars). However it is quite a nice configuration.

    La PC es un poco mas grande de lo que imagine, pero esta excelente, solo necesito ponerle otros 8GB de RAM. Su fuerte en si es tener un procesador de los mas nuevos, que yo creo es lo mas importante.

    Otras reseñas comentan la buena relación costo beneficio de esta serie de equipos, pero en modelos anteriores era común el comentario respecto a la dificultad de ampliar la capacidad en disco por un problema trivial: La falta de conectores extras en la fuente.Ha sido una grata sorpresa que Acer escuchó los comentarios y ahora se incluye un conector de energía disponible. Se ganan sus cinco estrellas completas.

    This desktop sits in the home office and has been a joy to use since it arrived a month ago. The price was right (though it was shipped from the U.S., meaning it took about ten days to arrive), there weren’t any startup hassles, it has a good built-in Wi-Fi capability and plenty of USB ports. The desktop boots just a tad more slowly than my Aspire 5 laptop, but that’s not an issue. Head-to-head, it offers better price-performance to Dell (which has been my go-to desktop supplier for the last five PCs).
