Question 1

DVI-1 port at rear?

Accepted Answer

There is no Digital Video Interface port at the rear or elsewhere.  There's a VGA and an HDMI only.  I'm using the VGA with a monitor that only has VGA and DVI.  However I think there are cables available (I seem to remember seeing one advertised in a recent Newegg sales circular) that will convert HDMI to DVI.

The monitor I'm using with this is 1280 x 1024.  In my experience, at least with my aging eyes, there is no significant difference between VGA and DVI at that resolution, so I didn't both getting the HDMI->DVI cable.

Question 2

Does the windows 7 disc come with the computer?Also this package is with a mouse and the keyboard correct?

Accepted Answer

Yes, keyboard and mouse are included.  The keyboard is not a full size keyboard with full number pad and such, more like a key layout of a laptop.  And no OS or restore discs included but the Acer erecovery software loaded on the machine does an easy job of making a set of recovery discs. Nice computer, does the trick for me.

Question 3

Contrary descriptions?
Acer ATC-605-UR2V as shown with Windows 7 Professional O/S, and 4400 graphics card.
Product Tour describes same ATC-605-UR2V coming with Windows 7 Home Premium and 4600 graphics.

Please CLARIFY which graphics and which O/S
AND does it have HDMI out?
Thank you

Accepted Answer

The i3-4160 chip has Intel 4400 graphics (Intel chips numbered i3-43## have the 4600 graphics). The operating system is Windows 7 Professional. I connected my monitor with HDMI. Acer website makes it sound like this model comes with MS Office Starter but it did not. The specs on this machine are really quite impressive and I have been very happy with the purchase.

Question 4

If I remember correctly, it has a 30 day free trial of Norton.

Question 7

if i wanted to upgrade the RAM i could use any brand of ddr3 memory correct?

Accepted Answer

Hi, i don't see why not.  I have not looked to see if there is room for another stick of memory.  I would call A c e  r and ask.

Very fast machine as it is and it has remote desktop so I use my laptop in my family room to use log in and use the ac er.  I love that feature.

This unit is the Professional which has more internal options such a desktop remote.  Good machine, fair price and Windows 7  !!!!

No reservations on saying buy this machine.  JJ
