Acer Aspire E5-774G [E5-774G-364G]

For those in the "tank"

"Under the hood" of the Acer Aspire E5-774G is a Core i3-7100U processor of the new Kaby Lake architecture, powerful and at the same time energy efficient, and a GeForce 940MX discrete graphics card (384 microcores). This tandem perfectly handles with popular multiplayer games: World of Tanks, Dota 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, as well as single-player hits of the past.

Cinema on the big screen

The relatively small amount of RAM (4 GB) and hard disk (500 GB) can be fixed without any problems. But with a low, as for a 17-inch diagonal, screen resolution (1600x900 pixels or 106 PPI) and a TN-matrix, whether you like it or not, you have to put up with it. But do not dramatize, because in games the difference between 900 and 1080p is hard to notice.

heavy burden

The Acer Aspire E5-774G turned out to be heavy even compared to its counterparts with the same screen size — 3.3 kg instead of the typical 2.7-2.8 kg. The main reason for the increased weight of the laptop is the thick plastic case: the top flap bends weakly, and the bottom one is generally monolithic, which prevents bending and breakage of internal components. And given that the 17-inch is bought with the clear intention of transferring it no further than from the desktop to the sofa and back, weight should not be considered a disadvantage.
