    Acer Aspire Desktop, 7th Gen Intel Core i5-7400, 12GB DDR4, 2TB HDD, Windows 10 Home, TC-780-ACKI5

    • So if you want to install a decent graphics card, be aware that the desktop will have no other usable PCI slot
    • I wouldn't recommend that many games with out the better graphics card first lol
    • The other solution will be to get a UEFI compliant video card (mine old one was
    • But, if you want an actual gaming rig, then you might want to look into getting yourself a proper graphics card
    • Fortunately, this desktop has one PCI Express x16 slot (PCIe v3.0) and one PCI Express x1 slot (PCIe V2.0) so you can easily add a powerful graphics card for gaming or video editing
    • The same graphics card works in the old computer but not this one, which tells me that the PCIe port is bad
    • I haven't noticed any downsides from media playback myself, but believe there could be added options to improve graphics card if desired.
    • Most new cards are UEFI compliant
    • I only wish had more then 300 watts so could add a nice vid card.
    • good, should install a better graphics card though.
    • You can install a dedicated video card but the top rated cards are physically too big to fit.
    • A good video card to add would be the nVidia 1050ti
    • The graphics are subpar, but there are available upgrade cards if you are a gamer
    • Also, I intended to install a more powerful video card, so I needed to replace the power supply too
    • With a better graphics card it is achievable but right now this computer can only handle intensive games on the lowest settings possible.
    • Oh yes has a great sound card.
    • I bought a $140 EVGA Geforce GTX 1050 graphics card because it was recommended by Melissa, another reviewer of this PC.
    • If you spend another hundred or so dollars on a decent video card you will have an awesome machine for the price.
    • I wanted:8GB RAM (preferably 12);at least an i5 quad core, (or AMD Ryzen 5);2 TB HDD (7200 RPM);HDMI input;DVD RW;WIFI and Bluetooth;a card reader and a decent number of usb ports
    • All this really shouldn't be necessary, because at the very least, it should be possible to disable the on-board video in the BIOS or the PC should work with older non-compliant UEFI video cards
