Product details

The Acer Aspire GX-281's distinctive case houses an AMD Ryzen eight-core processor, 16GB of DDR4 memory, and a dedicated graphics card from NVIDIA, enabling this powerhouse to handle modern games in Full HD resolution effortlessly. When it comes to storage, you'll benefit from an intelligent mix of SSD and HDD.

The GTX 1060 is ideal for gamers who want strong performance in Full HD resolution. Nvidia's GTX 1060 is the third GPU with the advanced Pascal architecture after the 1080 and 1070. This design allows a whole 4.4 billion transistors to be accommodated on the graphics chip, compared to the 2.94 billion in the predecessor GTX 960. The GP106 chip delivers the necessary performance and offers very high energy efficiency.

With the two separate storage media, you can benefit from the advantages of both technologies: the 1 TB hard disk provides plenty of storage space for movies, music, pictures, and other file types where high read and write speeds are not of primary importance. At the same time, the 256 GB solid-state drive provides a much faster storage medium, allowing you to experience noticeably faster system and program starts.

The AMD Ryzen 7 1700X is a processor designed for enthusiasts and overclockers. It has eight cores and can process up to 16 threads simultaneously thanks to multithreading. The standard clock rate is 3.4 GHz, and with the turbo core, the CPU can even reach up to 3.8 GHz. The processor is based on AMD's "Zen" Core architecture and has an open multiplier for easy overclocking.

Whether you connect your computer wired or wirelessly to your network, thanks to current standards (802.11ac WLAN and 1000 Mbps LAN), you can enjoy rapid transfer rates in both cases. Seven USB ports, including one in the 3.1 (Gen.2) and two in the 3.0 standard, await peripherals and storage media. For fast backups or larger data transfers, use the DVD writer or memory card reader.
