Review on 💻 Acer Aspire 5 A515-44-R93G: Full HD, Ryzen 3 4300U, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Windows 10 S by Ryan Selpasoria

I originally bought this computer for school work like drafting, powerpoint, excel etc. Although I didn't want to limit my computer to just that, and in case I wanted to play, I felt that it could definitely meet my expectations. My disclaimer is that as soon as I got the machine I upgraded the RAM from 8GB to "Crucial 32GB Kit (16GB x 2) DDR4 2666 MT/s (PC4-21300) DR x8 SODIMM 260 - Contact memory is CT2K16G4SFD8266". and "Samsung 860 EVO 500GB Internal 2.5" SATA III SSD (MZ-76E500B/AM). This thing works like a dream, it's fast, looks amazing and does everything I need and more. There were times when I literally had over 15 Google Chrome tabs open while Adobe, Word and others were active and the computer handled them like a champ while listening to Spotify. Sometimes I would just open whatever program I could. to see if it's slowing down my PC, and yet, these additional updates have definitely helped! I have listed the exact update items I used above by name. The only downsides I have are that the speakers are on the bottom and aren't very loud. The solution is to simply use headphones or a bluetooth speaker if you have one. The touchpad is a little touchy, you'll find that you're typing a sentence and somehow you've clicked on another part of the document and generated a lot of gibberish, causing you to repeat your steps at times. This can easily be remedied by buying a mouse, it makes the laptop easier to use anyway so it's a must in the long run. The aluminum body is great, but also slightly scratched to be delicate with beauty. Your PC is set to maximum settings, especially for gaming.
