i dont recommend getting an Acer. They are not the best quality, and customer service is so-so. I have dealt with Acer computers, and they aren't good. IF you are settling for a brand name PC, not custom-built, go for HP or Dell. They have many service centres and better support.

For the price, a custom built PC gets better bang for the buck.

the whole thing with custom is i dont know what im looking at and when people built one for me on this forum its from new egg and i dont know how to put everything together

 

[iamloco724]

what about cisnet computers?

 

[iamloco724]

or emachine?

 

[talldude123]

emachines are Okay, but they are CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP. Im talking about quality, features, and support.

I think Dell has better systems than emachines


That system you showed me is an Aspire, a model that Acer makes.

Yes you can, as long as you plug all the headers in correctly.
