Acer AME600-UR378 Desktop (Black)

CUSTOMER REVIEW



Top of the line processer for "not that much." I've had the computer for a couple of weeks and compared to my Vista HP, it's night and day. Web pages just flash by without hesitation. My pictures are "breath taking." E mails load instantly. As far as Windows 8 there is a learning curve but I'm finally getting used to it and it's not that bad. The only thing on Acer's part that kind of irritates me is the hard drive which is 5400 rpm, when most drives now days are 7200 rpm. I'm not sure if it makes a whole lot of difference but it is kind of "hope you don't notice" kind of thing. I still would recommend this computer because it is a lot of bang for the buck.



Feb. 14, 2013... I just started playing Far Cry 3 on this computer. Far Cry 3 is very graphics intensive, so I thought it would be a good test to see if the Acer could handle it. I have not installed any upgrades, including using the Intel intergrated graphic system that came with the computer.I have been pleasantly surprised. The game is beautiful and runs with no lag at all. My older computer with a graphics card shuts itself off because it gets so hot playing this game. The Acer runs cool and quiet. Granted, I can only use medium settings,after that the frame rate is slow, but still the details are good. I can only imagine the potential of adding a graphics card.All in all for a stock computer it handles itself well.
