Is the Acer Aspire C24 good for gaming?

Only for light and older titles. It uses integrated AMD graphics, not a discrete card, so modern games run at low settings or not at all. A tower with a dedicated GPU is the better choice for gaming.

Can I upgrade the RAM or storage?

All-in-ones are harder to open than towers. The 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB SSD are best treated as fixed; plan on external drives for extra storage rather than swapping parts.

What does Copilot+ add over a regular Windows PC?

Copilot+ features such as live captions and local image editing run on the processor's neural engine instead of the cloud. They work offline and keep data on the device, but they are extras, not a reason to buy on their own.

Is the touchscreen worth it on a desktop?

It helps for browsing, forms, kids' apps and shared kiosk-style use. For typing-heavy work a mouse and keyboard remain faster, and the touch layer adds some glare.

Does it come with a keyboard and mouse?

Acer usually bundles a wireless keyboard and mouse with Aspire C-series all-in-ones. Confirm the box contents for this model before buying if you need them included.

How does it compare with a tower plus monitor?

The C24 wins on desk space, cabling and setup. A tower wins on upgradeability, cooling and graphics power. Pick the all-in-one if you want one clean unit and don't plan to upgrade.
