I don't recommend this unit: the PSU is not powerful enough to upgrade a good graphic card. It's 12V only. Mobo is not a standard one with strange connectors. You cannot replace power supply with a standard one. I purchased and returned mine. Just for your information and awareness. If you don't plan to upgrade and use for surfing and basic office works, it's not bad at this price.

It's been recommended in the prior threads for the Acer XC.

Slim tower, non standard power supply

I don't see the power supply ever being an issue since its really only big enough for a tiny gpu and that'll be bus powered.

non standard power supply = hard to find a replacement.

Excellent PC. I added a 4tb Western Digital CMR drive. Perfect for regular stuff including office as well as gaming.

I put in the cheapest card AMD R7 250 and get 60 fps on CSGO. Perfect for a retrogaming console running launchbox.

Make sure you add a video card to take the load off the cpu.
