About this deal

In idle mode, the device hardly gets warmer than the ambient temperature at an average of about 24 °C (~75. for wireless connectivity, with Gigabit Ethernet also available for wired networks, and HDMI for an external display. With a 512 GB SSD, you'll get a speedier, more reliable experience than you would with a regular hard drive. dB(A) 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Deep Bass Middle Bass High Bass Lower Range Mids Higher Mids Lower Highs Mid Highs Upper Highs Super Highs 20 27. The Acer Aspire 5’s score can be excused by the fact it’s by far the least expensive Windows laptop we’ve tested in recent months.

However, it's suitable for one or two rounds if the game or the graphics settings aren't too demanding. The key travel, which is quite pronounced for a laptop, and a clearly perceptible pressure point also contribute to this. The touchpad is much better, being large enough for comfortable use and offering a smooth surface for Windows 11 multitouch gestures, which are well-supported thanks to Microsoft Precision touchpad drivers. The biggest reason the last year’s Aspire 5 received a low score was its display, which was the worst we’ve seen in a laptop in years. For real-world applications, the PCMark 10 test suite gives the Aspire 5 a score of 1280, which qualifies as a perfectly respectable ‘office laptop’.Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).

Besides the connection for the included power adapter, there's a LAN port with Gigabit speeds as an alternative to the built-in WLAN module. GHz, the Nvidia GeForce MX350 graphics card, and 16 GB of DDR4 SDRAM, the Acer Aspire 5 A517 is a good all-rounder. Choose between the latest Intel® Core™ or AMD Ryzen ™ Processors, with NVIDIA® graphics for accelerated photo and video editing performance.

The keyboard feels firm and comfortable for typing, and there’s a fingerprint sensor on the trackpad for security. In the second highest graphics setting, the title gradually no longer runs smoothly, while there are no problems at all in the second lowest setting. However, if we compare the Aspire 5 A517 with other 17-inch laptops, the device cuts quite a fine figure.The insides are user-accessible, and the RAM can be upgraded while there’s a second storage slot for another SSD. I used the Acer Aspire 5 extensively for several days and each day pegged endurance at six to seven hours.
