    it is a lightweight desktop compared to gaming machines I have built but it works fine for daily work and it quite fast.

    No regrets

    5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Setup
    Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2024
    This was purchased as a replacement for a 6 year old Dell that had begun to slow down and cause many problems. I only have basic computer knowledge and will only use this for streaming videos, facebook, etc.
    It was very easy to setup, and what used to take several minutes to get online, now takes about 10 seconds. What a difference.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Anti-Consumer
    Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2023
    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.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Simple Computer
    Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2023
    If you are looking for a gaming machine, this ain't it. But it IS a great setup overall for home or office. Easy to upgrade right out of the box. There are a few YouTube videos to watch for guidance. Memory was first, TEAMGROUP T-Create Classic 10L DDR4 32 GB Kit (Amazon $55.99). Then the available PCIe X16 slot was filled with a SABRENT NVMe M.2 SSD to PCIe X16 Card (Amazon $15.95) and a Crucial P3 1 TB PCIe Gen3 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD (Amazon $45.99) for a nice storage upgrade without using the much slower SATA interface. There is no case fan included, so an ARCTIC P12 PWM—120 mm 4 pin Case Fan took care of that (Amazon $9.09). Finally, there is only one USB-C port in the front and two USB-A 3.2 ports, one up front and one on the rear. So a low cost PCI-E Expansion Card with 2 USB Type-A and 2 USB Type-C Ports, SINEFINE (Amazon $16.99) filled the PCIe x4 slot and added plenty of ports. Goes from power on button to booted desktop in less than10 seconds. Upgrades totaled out at like $180.00 Delivered. Quite and fast, this build will last for years.

    Easy to expand. They even provide an angled cover plate to attach to an add-on dvd drive and an extra power node for an addon storage device. I added both. Not much preinstalled crap software except the obligatory McAfee virus which is easy to uninstall. Perfect for email and watching YouTube fail videos.
