Innovative case design
Starting from the innovative case design, the new line of Veriton desktops offer a wealth of new features and technologies, aimed at improving manageability and functionality.The new case design, simple and strong at the same time, showcases the Veriton PC’s solidity, high performance and reliability, conveying an efficient and professional feel. On the front, the new Veriton M and S series feature a new grill design to enhance ventilation, while ODDs and card readers are uncovered for easy access and updates.
The tool-less design of the cases simplifies access to hardware and internal components and eases any maintenance operation.
Modular interior layout
But the new Veriton is more than mere looks. Acer engineers completely remade the interior design to make it more efficient and allow more intuitive system diagnosis thanks to the overall neater appearance. The modular component cage design for HDD, ODD and FDD makes component upgrade simple and hassle-free. Users will no longer need to struggle with a complicated interior desktop layout: in case of failure, components can be easily identified and replaced. In addition, better cable management, with
cables hidden under the motherboard, is a critical improvement that makes the system more stable and reliable, thus reducing the need of assistance.
Environmentally friendly
As far as computers are concerned, green is not the latest trend but an added value. It means energy conservation without sacrificing performance. Running more energy-efficient systems helps the environment while cutting costs.According to the U.S. Department of Energy, last year alone, Americans, with the help of ENERGY STAR?, saved enough energy to power 10 million homes and avoid greenhouse gas emissions from 12 million cars - all the while saving $6 billion. Choosing a green PC is indeed a smart step for companies. According to Gartner, companies being green can actually save money and reduce IT budget.Acer Veriton desktop PCs are not only full of power-saving functions, but can meet ENERGY STAR? requirements and are certified green by a variety of international standards, such as EPEAT and Green Seal.
