The Acer Aspire (Model: AS5251-1805) laptop features an AMD V-series processor, a 15.6″ widescreen display and Microsoft Windows 7.
The CPU in this laptop is the AMD V-series processor (model: V120). This is a 64-bit processor running at 2.2 GHz. It has 512KB L2 cache and was built using a 45nm process. This laptop comes with 3GB DDR3 DIMM memory with an expandable to 8GB.
The screen is a 15.6-inch CineCrystal LED-backlit widescreen display with native 720p resolution for high-definition viewing. Its widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio is designed to present websites without lots of left-right scrolling, as well as with a smoother line of sight. The screen is driven by the AMD M880G Chipset with ATI Mobility RadeonTM HD 4250 graphics with 256MB-1405 MB dynamically allocated shared graphics memory. Shared memory means the system may slow down during graphically intense operations like games.
The hard drive is a 250GB Serial ATA (SATA) drive rotating at 5400RPM. Not exactly the largest drive on the market, but for a low-end laptop, what do you expect? The optical drive is a 8x SuperMulti DVD±R/RW drive which can also write to CD, DVD-RAM, and dual-layer (DL) DVD±R discs and hold up to 8.5 GB of data. The Multi-in-1 Digital Media Card Reader is compatible with Secure Digital (SD), MultiMediaCard (MMC), Memory Stick (MS), Memory Stick PRO (MS PRO), xD-Picture Card (xD) formats.
For networking this laptop has your standard array of wired (10/100/1000) and wireless (802.11 b/g/n) options, so that’s plenty to get you connected. You can use those connections to video chat with the built-in Crystal Eye webcam with a built-in digital microphone.
External ports include 3 USB 2.0 ports, 1 HDMI™ port with HDCP support, 1 external display (VGA) port, eadphone/speaker/line-out jack, and microphone-in jack.
