An ASUS M32AD Desktop Review Won't Answer These 29 Questions

ALL I WANT IS A COMPUTER THAT I CAN EDIT A LOT WITH. DO YOU THINK THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP WILL WORK GOOD?

• Edit what? Word documents? Or photos? I use it as a solid office computer for writing and editing documents, as well as light photo editing. I could but rarely stream video. It seems to be a solid computer. My son-in-law recommended it. He is an I.T. specialist at a TV station and uses this brand throughout the station. He is the one that picked it for me.

• If you mean text editing, this would be very effective. Extensive video editing might benefit from a unit with a separate video card, but this machine is fast and a real bargain.

• Video editing not so much, Audio editing sure. If you need a computer for video editing I suggest getting one with an i5 and a beefy graphics card.

• Yes and you are guaranteed the upgrade to windows 10


IS THE COOLING FAN ON THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP NOISY? THE FAN ON MY CURRENT MACHINE IS REALLY, REALLY LOUD.

• Well, I bought this as a gift so don't know. Haven't heard any complaints. I have an ASUS computer I bought a year ago and I can't even tell it's on. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

• Ours sits beside our desk in 10x10 office with 2 employees and isn't noticeable. I would say of the computers I have used, this would rank on the quiet side.

• I have not noticed the cooling fan noise. It actually is pretty quiet. Hope this helps.

• No I have not noticed any fan noise from this computer.

• No, I didn't hear any sound from cooling fan.

• Nope actually very quiet compared to most.

• No, it isn't noisy at all.

• It is very quite

• NO. Not on mine.

• Very quite


IS THERE A DVD BURNER ON THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP?

• It does. Though...I purchased two of these units for a client of mine (I am a Tech Business Owner for over 25 years) and the Windows on both systems crashed due to the video drivers not being compatible with the current Windows 10 Build on these units. Could not even perform a reset to factory on either computer. Per ASUS support: return units under warranty call. I did not have time to waste and returned both units and ordered replacement units of a different brand. Hope this helps.

• Yes - 24x DVD-RW. And, as a side comment, the unit I purchased (a week or so ago...) works perfectly - I did not experience the crash that BrianN mentioned.

• Yea there is a DVD burner.


DOES THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP COME WITH DUAL MONITOR CAPABILITY OUT OF THE BOX? FOR INSTANCE, CAN I PLUG ONE INTO HDMI AND ONE INTO VGA AND HAVE THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP WORK?

• I don't know for sure, but I installed a gtx 960 so now I can run triple if I wanted to. For a $160 or so you could get a gtx 950, pop it in, download a driver, and you're good for multiple screens, graphics heavy applications, games at medium to high settings. At this super low base price it's perfect for upgrades.

• Yes, this has an HDMI and VGA connection and I use it just fine with two monitors.


HOW MANY HDMI INPUTS ARE THERE? AND DOES THE ASUS M32AD DESKTOP HAVE A DISK HOLDER THING?

• There's one HDMI in the back. It does have a CD/DVD RW tray. I put some pictures of the computer that might help: https://www.amazon.com/review/R398QFE1OYMSPK/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm

• One hdmi and one disk drive

HOW DO I PLAY A DVD?

• It's simple just open disc tray in front with the open button. Insert dvd. And gently push tray shut. Then the default program should open on your screen. And give you a play button to push to start playing your dvd.

• Mine worked from the get go. I know that this is not what you wanted to hear. I did not have to make any changes to anything whatsoever on my new Windows 10 programing. Sorry lots of luck.
