Surely the S is the Superior, Epic or Legendary constant.
Unless they weight different Item slots.

Except it's twice as expensive for half the performance, yes. Can't say I expected to receive a broken computer.

This is the road where my computer is going Ireland-->Sweden-->Germany-->Sweden-->Ireland
It is where the green color is. I'll edit this post as it moves, in case someone cares.

I just read the repair report from Acer, "no error found. if error happens again, update drivers or reinstall operating system"
Seriously fucking idiots. How hard is it to be good at what you get paid for. Don't think they even read the fucking error report log that was sent with the computer (as per their standards and procedures).
Here is the troubleshooting log I provided for them:
Problem description 1. The computer experiences ”freeze spikes” when playing games. I started noricing this the second day after delivery. In the beginning this was only present in World of Warcraft, but has spread to other games that I’ve tried such as Warcraft 3, Team Fortress 2. This problem occurred on the second day of receiving the computer, although very mildly. Perhaps 0.2 second spikes every 2 hours. This quickly became worse, resulting in more frequent spikes with longer duration. After a week of troubleshooting the spikes can be several seconds long and can come several times a minute, depending on the game and time spent in-game.
2. Static electric sounds appear to come from the speakers. This was present from the very installation of the computer, however not present at all with headphones plugged in. This static electricity occurs independent on volume or sound activity on the computer. (It happens with 0 volume and 0 non-standard applications started. However it never happens when headphones are plugged in).
Troubleshooting: World of warcraft, warcraft 3, team fortress 2 1. Updated all drivers for all hardware, and DirectX 2. Tested different compatibility modes. 3. Tested with/without network cable. Tested with another computer on the network. Tested with another, modern Router. Ruled out network issue. 4. Tested several different CCC settings. Tested several older drivers. 5. Removal of temporary files. 6. Disabled all unnecessary processes and services in msconfig. 7. Ran Windows test and 3dmark test. Windows score being 5.8 with only harddisk as low as 5.8, everything else around 7.0. 3dmark score being around 8850. 8. Full factory defaults recovery. At this point it appeared to work “decently”(minor spikes, although bigger than when the problem surfaced) for a few hours of non-demanding gaming. After rebooting the issue became painfully obvious again. 9. Full factory defaults recovery again – No installations other than Warcraft 3. No windows updates. Default drivers. Uninstalled every non-vital application.
I have come to the conclusion this is a hardware error based on the following: The issue was present from the start in a very mild form, but has progressed to become worse and worse. Video settings do not seem to affect this issue much, in World of warcraft anyway. Lowest settings/highest settings both give smooth gameflow outside of the freeze spikes. However, screen resolution appears to have a big impact. 1920x and 1680x are unplayable in world of warcraft 5man dungeons. 1280 or lower have appeared to give lower duration spikes.
Additionally: On the current installation this issue is best measured by attempting to complete the later 2 missions unlocked in Warcraft 3. I haven’t found a test which recognizes where the problem lies. Movies and music appear to flow perfectly.
