Acer Aspire AM3100-U3401A Desktop PC

Dual core/64-bit processing: This desktop features the dual-core 2.4GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ processor. The Athlon 64 X2 has two processing engines that work together, giving this processor much more power than standard 2.6GHz processors. This processor is also capable of processing 64 bits of information at once, twice as much as older 32-bit processors.

• This desktop features 3GB of DDR2 system memory—enough for the most demanding users, gamers and multimedia professionals. DDR2 is slightly faster than DDR, the previous standard in system memory.

• HyperTransport technology works like a fully-integrated frontside bus that increases bandwidth, reduces bottlenecks and enables processors to work more efficiently.

• Processors search for the same data over and over. L2 caches keep this data neat, organized, and nearby so it can be retrieved more quickly. This 1MB cache gives the processor a little boost.

Hard drive: This hard drive features a 320GB capacity—perfect for robust collections of music, movies and multimedia.  This drive’s data disks spin at 7200rpm, providing faster-than-average access to your files.

DVD SuperMulti drive: Use this drive to burn DVDs and CDs to share your files, music mixes or home movies. You can even burn DVD-RAM discs—specially-formatted discs that let you drag and drop, or write and rewrite your files up to 100,000 times.

Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit): This is the operating system for homes with advanced computer needs. And Vista Premium features the elegant new Aero interface. You’ll be able to use your desktop more effectively and enjoy new entertainment experiences—all with the benefit of added security and reliability.

Audio/video: This desktop features 256MB of shared video memory, drawn from the main system memory, and integrated ATI Radeon X1250 graphics. You'll be ready for everyday activities like casual movie watching or gaming. The stereo speakers give your multimedia some extra kick.

Media card reader: Seamlessly transfer images from your digital camera, MP3 player or camcorder. This reader is compatible with Secure Digital card, SmartMedia card, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, CompactFlash I/II card, Microdrive or xD-Picture Card.
