Good PC, looks dope. But I think you can get it cheaper (around 1100 Euro).

In Austria?

Don't buy an Acer. If it dies they may send you a used beat up one and there is nothing you can do about it.

Dunno, but for that money you can get something better/ else.

I had a pre-build Acer PC back in the day with a RX 470, just outside my warranty things went south with it, I had to spend another 1/4 of the value of the PC to get it fixed (PC was around 1000 Euro).

You're mixing pears with apples.

That looks a lot like mismanagement on Microcenter's part.

avoid
its cheap because its pure e-waste

it not a standard atx mobo, case, or psu
if its like the previous ones, it will not have any vrm cooling, and way too weak for the i7 cpu

i7 265f has a base tdp of 65w, but max of 182w
to hold the cpu at its turbo clocks, the board would need 8+ vrm phases to cpu cores with heatsinks

the older one with the 12400f, ha 3+1+1 with no vrm cooling
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAIuYszAV3Y&t=6s
the board can only give it around 60w, when the cpu has base tdp of 65w, and max of 117w

if you want to dig further, case airflow looks poor
cant upgrade much more than ram or add a single sata drive

I knew it before i clicked USA! You folks have zero customer rights lol? In the EU and UK you can simply chargeback the retailer or file online for small claims court for a fee of 70 bucks and they will decide what is fair. We normally get six years to claim.


Manufacturers like to claim hurr durr 2yr warranty the sad part is thats true but here the retailer picks up the bill. Mastercard are jointly liable also for purchases up to six years in some cases where the retailer refuses to pay or goes bankrupt creditcard would have to refund the full cost of the acer.


This is why i always have two rules for large purchases. Rule number 1 always try to avoid bricks and mortar buy online. Rule two always use Mastercard.

That's what they want for 1,500€?

Ew.

Or is it this one? https://store.acer.com/en-sg/po3-665-cu7r321t56

if that is a pic of its board
hard no

im still only seeing 6 choke coils around the cpu socket, and no heatsink
way too weak for a modern i5 or i7

I'm not saying it is good, especially in a place where options are extremely limited.

Does Ironside have anything that cheap and delivers to Austria?

Ok I just bought a Core I7 14700F
Asus TUF Gaming B760M
32Gb corsair DDR5 5600Mhz
Geforce RTX 5060 8GB

let's see if it runs Oblivion and skyrim.

It will probably arrive next week

:nkCool:

I doubt it, Oblivion Remaster can be very heavy on the vram. 12GB is the minimum.
