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

I don’t play a lot of games but the ones I do like to play need some decent specs to be ran.

My last computer was an Acer and I’ve been pleased with the performance. I don’t use it as frequently since it’s almost 4 years old now. Having a newer computer under $1000 that has the updated features and capabilities is what the Acer Nitro 50 offers. More power, better graphics and overall better experience. Upgrading every few years to the newest technology can be costly that’s why I typically try to set a budget of less than a grand. I am not a big gamer but for occasional gaming, work and personal tasks this was perfect for me.

Like I set as the reason for return to the seller, the PC is alleged to be a gaming desktop, but after I received it and opened the box, only to see it lacking the basic gaming function, Display Port, which is considered as essential function port nowadays to be ready-made for gamers and can support 144 HZ and above refresh rate for FPS games such as Call of Duty and Fortnite to run fluently while HDMI is much lower. Oh man, DP is baaaasic, otherwise how come Nitron is especially alleged by Acer to be gaming array priced over $798.00, without even DP? You cannt react quick enough with HDMI. The word Gaming in your title doesnt make sense. So I just returned it without even trying it.

Ordered first one, needed computer badly, arrived with no hard drive. Gave them the benefit of the doubt. Waited for another after returning. Second one arrived same way . No hard drive . Would never buy an Acer computer again. I wibe buying an ASUS or Lenovo . What a waste of time . Big disappointment. I can only imagine the problems I was in for

It heats up way too fast, but then again, this is an entry level desktop. Still, for 800 dollars, I expected something much more. It’s life expectancy is terrible.

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.

I only loaded 3 applications onto PC. Fan and drives were the noisiest Ive ever had for a PC, including occasional extremely loud drive whine that could be heard across the room. System completely froze while basically doing nothing on it. A few days later a blue window appeared with message about something not initializing and froze again. A couple of days later came to PC in the morning and drive noise was cycling on and off and when I touched the keyboard a disk check message came up and system froze again. Fourth freeze up occurred the next day. Bad out of the box and extremely noisy.

The description is just like the product. The computer works good no complaints. It arrived all in one piece.

This was surprisingly easy to carry into another room and set up, and to a person that originally only had a puny 2 Gb on her graphics card and was not able to play any game that came out after 2020, now the graphics are astonishingly better. Do yourself a favor, though, and order a HDMI to VGA converter with this if you are like me and do not have the latest and greatest monitor to plug in - mine is widescreen, but is VGA and I could not use the new graphic card until I had the right cable. It also does not have a DVD or CD-rom, so if you need one you have to order that, too. Once you get over the audacity of such a thing now not being included in a computer, that is. Laptops have long been doing that, and floppy disk drives I get, but in a desktop tower with lots of room?!

A couple adjustments need be made such as settings, and add a couple components. I bought the item for very minor gaming, mostly for video/picture editing with a word processor. However, it seems to be heating up very quickly. Over the next week I will make a decision to send it back if its unable to be improved.
