Stack your own modular computer with the Acer Revo Build Series

 

Swappable, stackable, component modules make up a very flexible desktop PC.

Acer Revo Build M1-601

 

It's "Project Ara for PCs" is how the Acer Revo Build is talked about. Here we have a mini PC with a footprint of just 125 x 125mm that can be expanded using magnetic 'blocks' that clip on top of one another. So far, so clever.

Acer Revo Build: Assemble this modular mini PC like Lego

 

What you're looking at is not a retro hi-fi, nor a bento box as Acer CEO Jason Chen likened the new Acer Revo Build to when introducing it on stage at the company's IFA press conference in Berlin.

Stack your own modular computer with the Acer Revo Build Series

 

The idea of a modular PC, where different sections and components can be swapped out quickly and easily, has been talked about for a long time, without ever being commercially viable. Acer is taking a new stab at the idea with its Revo Build Series, a...

There's no US date or price for the Revo Build Series yet, but Acer says it will come to Europe in October, starting at €199, which converts to about $233 USD, £145 and AU$317.

Acer Revo Build review - hands on

 

Acer's second take on a compact Mini PC is even more flexible than the first thanks to modular upgrades

With no word on prices for the optional upgrade modules, or indeed any real details regarding hardware, it's clear Acer is still settling on final specifications, but there won't be long to wait until you'll be able to pick up a Revo Build base unit....

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Laggy performance... Comes with lots of bloat from Acer

 

- Opening Firefox or even scrolling on a loaded webpage is a pain...

- Cheap - Will crank out 1440p through the DisplayPort

- Do they even sell the expansion blocks in the USA? - Extremely laggy, CPU is very stressed doing minimal tasks in W10 - Comes with a lot of Acer telemetry built in to scheduled tasks

Worthless

 

The Celeron is a little faster than an Atom processor

Windows 7 and up (8.x, 10.x) - once it has all it's updates - will take up just under 29 GIG of space in the Windows, Users, and Program Data storage folder. That only leaves 3 GIG of room. As updates and patches continue, you will eventually run our...

Great product for the specs and when on sale

 

- Will be a nice box for Kodi to replace a larger Win7 WMC I have now (but will need external / network storage for media) - Use Logitech K400 wireless keyboard just fine with it; also IR remote receiver - Fine as a basic desktop for most users (web...

- Nice form factor - Minimal noise and power (there is a small fan on CPU heat sink that turns on occasionally but barely noticeable) - Celeron N3050 is better than the Atom used in many similar style machines (has Virtual Extensions in CPU) - Full...

- Very empty box (could easily be 1/2 the height) - No real expansion possible (no internal connectors; only memory and wireless card in socket; no expansion boxes available 3 months after release using their magnetic / button connector) - Only worth...
