Acer Predator Orion 5000 Series

Fast gaming performance. Neatly assembled. Flashy case lighting. Flip-down headset hangers.

Only 500GB of storage, with no separate hard drive. Case design will likely be divisive.

Bottom Line: The Acer Predator Orion 5000's style, shape, and glow may prove sticking points for some. But this is one powerful, ready-to-roll gaming desktop right out of the box.

Solid gaming performance from Core i7 and RTX 4070 Super ; Well priced for a pre-built tower ; Plenty of ports, including 20 Gbps USB-C

Average case quality ; Noticeable fan noise while gaming

The Predator Orion 5000 delivers excellent performance for the money, with a Core i7 and a GeForce RTX 4070 Super for about $1,500, though its looks and case aren’t as upscale as some competing PCs.

Great gpu and easy option to add more ram

Wish it came with more ram or i9 version available

It is one of the only ways to get a 3080 in the current shortage of gfx cards. The ram supplied and m.2 were surprisingly good components. The PSU is still unknown as I cannot get into the cage that hides it.

Cooling - the CPU waterblock is not working efficiently, likely poor application of thermal paste or just a poor waterblock. Fans are noisy, especially when using a game with higher demands on the system. Case is cramped, no sound insulation, headphone...

There are none this was a massive mistake for what it is. Overly pricey, built on nasty cheap parts.

It’s about as loud as a jet engine making sound from video or games almost impossible to hear unless you want to crank volumes up to 11.

Ideal for futuristic high running games.

Graphics card 2080, would've liked it to be in the top range 3000 plus

had a good Geforce 2070 graphics card a large 2tb hard drive with 16gb ram so it was quite quick. But Limited for upgrading and only having 512 gb Solid State Drive, which isn't very big these days.

The Motherboard was made by Acer and you can not upgrade the Ram's mhz. I bought Gaming ram 33gb at 3600mhz and the Motherboard would not accept it. It would only read 16 gb at 2333 mhz. I spoke to Acer who told me them selves that the motherboard will...

It is a very fast and high performance pc,boots up very quickly, expandable storage, extra m.2 slot and overall easy upgradability. I especially love the hit swap sad bay on the front very useful

Same graphical performance can be found with the new Nvidia rtx30 series which are cheaper and provide same or more performance. Value for money with a rtx2080ti is poor due to the new graphic cards available

Fast, cool and happily sits there.

Had issues with the CMOS battery but managed to change. Configuration of setup was annoying, required using specifically sized screwdrivers to actually fit in to remove components to replace the battery
