For only $448 (or $399 after an Acer cashback) the 15.6in Acer Aspire AS5750-2332G50Mnkk is very affordably priced. It has a 2nd Gen Intel Core i3 processor, which for a notebook well under $500 is a real surprise. Although it only has 2GB of RAM, it does have a 500GB hard disk drive so the specs are generally solid. This basic notebook is great for those on a tight budget, because the computing power is pretty strong given the seriously low price. One other point worth noting is that it has Gigabit Ethernet and a HDMI port, two features that aren't always present on such budget priced notebooks.

Processor
The AS5750 features a 2nd Gen Intel Core i3-2330M (2.2GHz), one of the faster low-end processors which can smoothly run productivity applications and some intensive software.

Graphics
The AS5750 comes with an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD Graphics 3000. It’s on par with a low-end dedicated graphics card, and is sufficient for modern games at the lowest settings.

RAM
The AS5750 comes with 2GB of RAM, which is enough to smoothly run a single program. This isn’t really enough for multi-tasking though.

Storage
The AS5750 features a 500GB hard disk drive, which is about average in size. It’s big enough for plenty of documents, but movies and the like will fill it sooner rather than later.

Screen
The AS5750 sports a 15.6in (1,366x768 resolution) gloss screen. The gloss screen does make outdoor usage a bit of a struggle, but stay out of direct sunlight and it’s still fine.

Portability
The AS5750 has average portability, because it weighs 2.6kg and is 33.2mm thick. It'll be straightforward to carry around.
