This monster is driven by Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
This gaming PC comes with an NVIDIA GTX260 video card. It's the perfect companion for the Core i7 to bring you quality graphics and high frame rates without a hiccup.

The tool-less, hot-swappable hard-drive slots simplify expansion, while gaming peripherals can be connected with ease because USB ports, audio jacks, a firewire port, and card reader are located at the top and front. This PC is ready for gaming with a Logitech G11 illuminated gaming keyboard and Acer optical mouse.

Ordered two, both arrived on-time and in perfect condition. Had no trouble making system restore disks for the original OS, or upgrading to Windows 7. The case is a little flimsy, but otherwise I highly recommend this system.
Incredible price

Received unit with power switch not seated correctly. Needed to take apart and reseat. Needed customer support help to do a partition recovery via email. They were helpful. Overall really like this computer. Build an XP system 5 years ago and decided to update. This system is really quiet and fast. Only limiting factor is my internet service which is satelite.
Great System!

This is a fantastic system! The packaging was better than expected when it arrived and I bascially just plugged it in, turned it on, and Voila, instant gamer system. At the time I bought it, I could not have built it myself with the same parts for that price. I think the GTX260 is underpowered and would have prefered a faster ATI card but this is good enough for now. I was also easily able to add 3 more HDs to this system for 4TB storage and I didn't even have to open up the case. The drives bays are accessible through the front. I'm not sure if they are Hot swappable but they look like they could be (didn't want to risk it). I also just wiped off most of the preloaded software and I was good to go. Thankfully, I didn't have to call tech support cause it looks like people have had some issues with them. Also the front panel feels a bit flimsy, always afraid I might break it when I bump into it accidentally. This is my first Acer and I'm pretty happy with it.
Horrible Customer service and techs

I will never buy acer again. India based CS reps and my CPU was damaged at their repair facility. The worst part is they didn't repair the problem, cracked my case and had me ship it back for round 2.
Horrible company
