Acer Aspire R3600 or Acer Aspire R3610
#1
Hello,

Are there many differences between those 2? I can buy the R3600 for €250 inclusive keyboard, mouse and W7

Is the R3610 much better or will the R3600 will do his job for HTPC?

Thanks

You should be fine with the lower one for XBMC. I use the R1600 (single core atom) version and couldn't be happier.

I Know, but the R1600 is so difficult to find these days...
has the R1600 optical audio out?

The R3600 doesn't have this, but the R3610 got it.

No the R1600 doesn't have an optical out, I use a Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro that I've had for years.

what prices are you finding for these? The used R3600s are fetching almost as much as a new R3610 now

Is it possible to use an USB to S/PDIF converter on the R3600? So i have also S/PDIF on my R3600.

Can this be the same as a HTPC/R3610 with build-in S/PDIF ?

I was just wondering what the best prices you've found R3600s and R3610s for so far in your search, i'm thinking about buying one too. Big Grin

Hi,

I' added a numeric audio output on my revo r3600 :
r3600 and 3610 have the same hardware components.

I've made a modification, it works with XBMC (but I don't find how to activate it with Windows).

Please take a look at this, this is my article, it is in French (sorry about that ) but I think you'll probably understand how to do this
