Acer Nitro 50 N50-640-UA91 Gaming Desktop | 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12400F 6-Core Processor | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 | 8GB 3200MHz DDR4 | 512GB NVMe M.2 SSD | Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX211 | Windows 11 Home

It start up so quickly amazing compared to my laptop graphics are great I even went to go play EverQuest for the first time in 25 years run smooth great for all my needs

I did my research and there were a lot of mixed reviews. Good and bad. I decided to go with this PC because it fit my needs at a reasonable price. After 1 month (a few days past the return date and maybe 24 hours total use) the computer stopped working. It became a brick and nothing would work. I worked with Acer to trouble shoot the product because it was under warranty. I had both good and bad experiences with their CS. Eventually, they told me to ship it to them for repair.

Overall, not bad, but if you are looking for a gaming pc this is not it. My Acer laptop has better graphics than this. Either go for a better graphics card with computer or plan on buying a 300–600-dollar card

Pretty decent value, I think, for the price range. I use it for Steam gaming and CG art. Looks fairly cool with red LEDs on the inside. Havent upgraded anything except adding a SATA and nvme SSD just to hold Steam games. Might add RAM in the future, but has enough for most of my uses.

thought it would come with monitor but i can use my TV its fine its loud as shiet but it runs everything that Ive thrown in it so far

We bought this for our teenage son for xmas to play his games. He absolutely loves it and has zero issues. Sound purchase.

Overall, its a well built computer for anyone looking to get into computer gaming. The processor gpu combo (i5 / 1650) is powerful enough to run almost any game and the computer has standard cables and 4 ram slots on the inside so you could easily upgrade it later if you want to. My only complaint is that the computer is a bit light on USB ports, but for the price you really cant be overly picky.

For anybody who plays:

Great PC for the price. Got it as a secondary pc. I added 32 gigs of 3200 mhz ram, installed a second m.2 drive and added 2 sata drives to it for a total of 10TB of storage. (note: you need to have sata cables to add HDDs, but the connectors are on along the edge of the motherboard sticking out the side towards the bottom side of the pc, took me a minute to find them). The wifi card works fine in it but I swapped mine out for the killer wifi card simply because its better and the killer software gives you nice control on wifi settings. I paired it with an ASUS 32 inch wquhd 144 hz monitor. The keyboard it comes with is kinda small, which is good if you have limited space but I prefer a bigger keyboard so I used a different one. ( I have large hands) I did not use the mouse it comes with, I prefer a thumb trackball mouse but the mouse it comes with is functional and works fine. So far it has performed well. Plays games just fine. Its easy to add upgrades to it. If you buy this pc, in the very minimum i recommend adding at least 1 more 8gb strip of ram to it at 3200 mhz for optimal performance. The 8GB it comes with is not enough for gaming, but this pc is a great starter for the money. If youre on a budget and looking for something affordable, this ACER Nitro is great. I might upgrade the video card at a later date but the Geforce it comes with will run every game currently on the market on medium to high settings, older games can be run at max settings. Overall I am happy with it.

If you buy this system, or probably any other Acer Nitro desktops, you will find Acer has enabled a very dangerous setting. In Device Manager, under Disk Drives, go to the properties of the SSD, click the Policies tab, and UNcheck Turn off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device. Before I figured this out, user profiles on the machine were getting corrupted regularly. I have never seen this on by default in any other machine I have gotten from Dell, Lenovo, HP, etc.
