PC runs very smoothly, led control is very easy to use, minimum lag, able to run games smoothly, only problem is the overheating, multiple times the pc reached above 70C, I recommend attaching a liquid cooler attachable to LGA 1700.

Love this PC only thing that i have to say is that it runs pretty darn warm yet the fans keep up with keeping the temps at a manageable level fans at full speed are a bit loud but if you have a decent pair of gaming headphones or earbuds you wont be bothered by them. Unltimately for the specs of this computer its totally worth the money. 10/10 i would buy again!

This machine is hard not to like and if you dont plan on doing any upgrades this PC is just fine. It gets the job done and you can run games like Starfield and Forza no problem. I dont like how hot it gets. The cpu gets up there in temps. I attempted to istall a liquid cool radiator on top, but there wasnt enough clearance with the fans. Other than the heat this pc runs great.

I absolutely love this computer! It is a tad bit pricey but totally worth the extra money. Top of the line in every aspect. I pushed it to its limits and it performed flawlessly. Highly recommend. I also love the predator app and the ability to make it light up any way i want! Amazing!!!

Bought this on sale($1599.) I was playing different AAA games in ultra which runs great. My problem is the CPU going up to 100c during gameplay and around 54c during normal web browsing. GPU temps are perfectly fine. Im not sure if the i7-13700k naturally goes that high or its a cooling / thermal paste appication issue. Only time will tell i guess

I've been wanting to buy my first prebuilt for a while and know little to nothing about PCs, after a few hours looking online I decided to give this one a shot and it works great for any of the games I play. Very easy set up as well.

A Solid Gaming PC That Exceeds Expectations

From the moment this gaming PC arrived, it was clear that attention to detail was a priority, starting with its well-designed packaging. The setup process was a breeze, thanks to straightforward instructions that made the initial configuration seamless. Performance-wise, this PC knocks it out of the park, delivering flawless gameplay at maximum settings with the GPU maintaining a cool 65°C even under heavy load. The quiet fans are a notable feature, ensuring that any noise generated during intense gaming sessions is minimal and non-intrusive.
The design and build quality of the PC itself are commendable, though I encountered a slight hiccup with the case. Opening the glass case was less intuitive than expected, indicating that the instructions for this particular step could be improved for clarity.
On the downside, the included keyboard and mouse leave much to be desired. The keyboard's compact size and basic functionality fall short of what one might expect from a gaming setup. Similarly, the mouse's lightweight design and lack of additional buttons do not meet the standard for a gaming mouse. Fortunately, I had replacements from my previous build, which quickly resolved these shortcomings.
Multitasking capabilities of this PC are impressive, handling streaming, multiple tabs, and various applications without any hint of slowing down. This aspect alone has significantly enhanced my computing experience, allowing for a smooth and efficient workflow.
In summary, while the peripherals were a letdown, the overall performance and quality of this gaming PC have left me thoroughly satisfied. Its ability to handle demanding games and multitasking with ease, combined with its quiet operation, make it a product I would readily recommend to fellow gamers, especially if you can purchase it on sale. It's a testament to what a well-built PC can achieve, provided you're prepared with your own gaming keyboard and mouse.

Really good PC!! if you don't know anything about pc, this is a safe really good i7 core and graphic card. along with good storage. Especially get it when it's on a deal or sale, I got mine for 1599, almost 200 dollars off to use towards a good monitor or keyboard and mouse.
for performance it runs really well, I rarely lag and when I do it is because my wifi not being able to keep up. I play games like Helldivers 2 and Stray which looks amazing.
for physical looks you can change the color of the fans to any you want, not just the blue logo at the front with the two fans under it. Plus the glass panel is good quality.

The Acer-predator-orion-5000-gaming-desktop-intel-core-i7-13700f-32gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4070-1tb-gen-4-ssd-black Computer is a fantastic computer. I was surprised at how big and heavy this computer was when I received it. It really works great when it comes to playing games. This computer is amazingly quiet when running. I cannot say anything bad about this computer. The Keyboard on the other hand, I will not say anything good about it. I am using my old keyboard and mouse with this computer. I am not going to say anything about the mouse, because I didn't try it. I like my old mouse because it is heavier feeling and has one more button then the one that came with this computer. I would definitely buy this Computer again though.

I bought this computer to replace the HP Omen 25L and I can promise you that it is such a better computer in every single aspect and worth the price. I did notice that it was a big loud at first, but if you set the PC into power-saving mode, it can still run on high and ultra graphics with virtually zero sound. I love the rainbow fans and motherboard, and how customizable everything is. I also enjoyed Acer's quick customer service when contacted via text. Great experience all around!

I was torn between buying a prebuilt and building my own. In the end, i am super happy with what i got for the price! Not much more than what the same in part picker. Awsome machine that has run anything ive thrown at it (cyberpunk, high res mods, etc). I was able to plug it in and 1 hour later i was gaming. Absolutely would reccomend.

Acer Orion 5000 RTX-4070 (Flight Simulator)

I saw this on sale for $1599 and immediately decided to try it out. The 2 tb of M.2 hard drive space, 32 gigs of ram and the Nvidia RTX-4070 is a bargain. It's a beast with room to upgrade additional M.2 ssd slot (which I did Samsung Pro 990 2tb for $185). I'm using it for a Flight Simulator and I couldn't be happier.
