I would not buy an acer pc again.
I'm considering purchasing this PC, but I'm in doubt about the processor. The title announces the Intel Pentium G2030 - however, when I checked the specifications for this product on the official Acer page - [...]- , the processor listed there is the Pentium G645, which has a significantly worse performance.
I would like someone (ideally an Amazon representative) to confirm what the processor in this model really is.
PS: I'm writing this question as a review because I didn't find any other way.
I wanted to use two screens as I have done with my previous Acer desktop, but despite having a VGA and HDMI port I could not get this to work. I then found that wobbling the VGA cable sometimes brought both screens back to life so it looked like a dodgy connection on the VGA as others have reported.
I took this to my local computer shop (U-Compute, Keswick), where it came from, expecting it to be sent back, and they identified the problem. The back plate through which the plugs go has been mounted too far away from the mother board and is too springy, so when you wobble a cable it pulls the others out slightly. This is a design fault. Their solution was to search through their HDMI cables looking for one with a slightly longer plug than the others. Replacing the cable with a Vivanco Prowire HDMI solved the problem. Other cheaper cables may also work fine, provided that they have a long plug.
So a poor piece of design from Acer, which may explain why people have been having the problems with monitor cables described, and why a replacement had the same issue as the original for one buyer.
Acer customer support helpline were particularly poor. Their Indian call centre insisted I did a full reset to solve the problem, saying this would take half an hour. It took a day and solved nothing.
Apart from that annoying fault and Acer's feeble customer services, the computer works very well.
Product does what it says on the box. I haven't had any issues, worked straight out the box, and I don't have to worry about anything.
