Owned a Previous model of this computer for about 5 years, it had many problems. Could not find any English language information on this AG6-710 Gaming Desktop, but, watching many European language internet broadcasts I finally saw enough details to convince me to hit the 'Order' key.
Delivery was delayed by shipper due to coming too early in the day and requiring a signature (which I DID want to provide), didn't want this Acer left on the porch. Finally came when I could sign my 'John Hancock', and despite delay, I was still happy. Due to size and weight, factory carton was simply placed inside another cardboard box and shipping label slapped on it, NO additional packing materials. That gave me pause and a bit of concern. HOWEVER, since unpack and set up, using a VSX 1020 audio amp with 7.1 surround-Infinity speaker set; & 1080P HD monitor display 32", this machine (Win 10 OS--new to me, I've been back in Win 7 teritory on previous model) IS a gaming Predator. Able to control cooling fans, and CPU speed +Turbo button on case! Nvidia 980 card- SUPER graphics in highest res I would normally use (1920 x 1080) runs smooth as silk. Included keyboard (back lighted keys, Adj. mouse both OUTSTANDING) Powers up (Win 10) in seconds, would have liked 32 GB RAM but so far, 16 no real operation limit that I have noticed. Also would have preferred 512 SSD, yet 2TB hard drive is plenty of space for game library. OS and links are fine on the 256 SSD card. Fan(s) a bit loud at max running to cool, but once emerced in a game, I do not even notice their sound. Not fond of earphones in game play, like the room rockin' better in FPS & RPG's. SO FAR NOTHING negative to report. Can't figure out how to open the CPU case (which I have done on many other machines over the years to boost cooling via external fans) but this 'beautiful beast' (I used to be a tank commander) displaces heat rapidly on it's own. I feel the CPU case external design (armor tread) ROCKS! Playing Dying Light - Far Cry 4 - Fallout 4 - many other older titles, ALL RUN PERFECT! Awaiting the latest Tomb Raider generation, which should not have any issues, based on performance I have seen over the last month from the AG6-710. Always play only against the 'computer' not any MMP online or co-ops, so I cannot comment on that style of gaming play or ability of this machine over the WW web server responce times, but in stand-alone to date, this machine, for the $$$$ is far and away better for PC gaming than any other I have seen. Have NOT used multi-screen either. Just me against the box! NO ISSUES thus far. Ask me in 6 months, if it's still a toasty toy, I'll report any variations to this review with this ACER, should they occur. B.F.G. out!
