LaptopMag has reviewed the Acer Aspire 9300-5005 notebook PC. The Acer Aspire 9300-5005 is powered by an AMD Turion 64 X2 TL-50 1.6GHz processor, 1GB RAM (up to 4GB), a 120GB hard drive and Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 graphics.
Acer Aspire 9300-5005 has also a 8X DVD+/-R burner, a 17-inch LCD display, WiFi 802.11 b/g, and a 5-in-1 memory card slot.
LaptopMag says:
For less than $1,000, you get a system that will easily shoulder any productivity task and capably handle multiple applications at once. And although it may not run today’s most demanding games and graphics applications set to the maximum settings, with a 3DMark03 score of 3,042, you should have no problem using the Aspire 9300-5005 as a midlevel gaming system. The six-cell battery lasted for only 69 minutes on our DVD drain test, but this laptop isn’t made to stray far from the wall socket anyway.
If you’re looking for a big display and powerful performance for about $1,000, the Acer Aspire 9300-5005 is about as good as it gets.
PROS
- Crisp 17-inch display
- Robust components for the price
- Capable productivity and gaming performance
- Dedicated number pad
CONS
- No FireWire port
- No dedicated volume controls
- Plain design
