We often see the Acer Aspire TC on sale this time of year—which is good news for those who haven’t picked up what was called “the budget buy PC to beat.” It’s an excellent value even at retail, offering peppy performance and modern amenities like Wi-Fi 6E connectivity and dual HDMI ports. “Acer serves up a fine value with its Aspire TC-1780-UA92. Our Core i5 model is short on RAM, with just 8GB, but that can be remedied later, thanks to the desktop’s easy upgradability. The Aspire otherwise includes everything else we look for in a basic tower, like fast Wi-Fi, USB Type-C, a media card reader, and dual-monitor support,” per our expert.
