Acer is now the standard for economical, reliable PC performance.

Good speed, smooth performance.

Snappy performance.

Some tips to make this thing worth a lot more than you buy it for and improve its performance for gaming are to add in any dedicated gpu (be careful as some cards may require you upgrade the standard but relatively small 300W psu)

I found assigning a 64GB thumb drive as Readyboost in a USB 3.0 port further improved performance.

any standard ssd (the 7200rpm 2TB hdd isn't terrible and is pretty quick - with more than enough space for any user - but you'll always get faster performance from an ssd), and of course a larger and more efficient power supply

Good integrated audio and video performance.

Beyond being a little slow on boot, it has a consistent performance in day to day use
