Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-79TD Gaming Laptop | Intel Core i7-11800H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU | 15.6 FHD 144Hz IPS Display | 8GB DDR4 | 512GB NVMe SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit Keyboard

The styling of this computer doesnt appeal to me, but it might appeal to you. It looks like its trying to be edgy with lots of angles, and a black and red color scheme complete with glowing red keyboard. My kids think it should belong to Darth Vader. As for the performance of the computer, it works well. It can play steam games that are graphics heavy and run Photoshop. It has a snappy 144 refresh rate. Its not top of the line for graphics rendering, but it is functional. Its a decent gaming computer, but can only run some of the most recent games like Cyberpunk on low quality. It can run anything from a year or two ago no problem. Ive yet to have the fans kick into high gear even when stressing the system, it stays relatively cool. The fans are generally pretty quiet (though we forced it into high gear to test it, and they were obnoxiously loud then). The nitro button is pointless, it just brings up the program that monitors your fan speeds and temperature. It weighs 5.4 pounds and is on the heavy side compared to our other laptops. It has a dedicated power cord port, 3 USB 2 ports, 1 USB C and an HDMI port. The track pad is untextured and responsive. The keyboard is good as far as laptop keyboard go. It did not arrive charged, but it charges pretty quickly. The power cord is bulky and heavy, but thats pretty common. It does not have a touch screen. It runs windows 11. It connects to wifi well, the wifi is speedy and doesnt have much lag. It turns on quickly too.

UPDATE (22 March 2022):

Got this for Prime Day, won’t even turn on out of the box

I have been needing a new laptop for a little while now as mine was a bit too out of date.

Laptop has battery issues and you will void warranty if you tear it apart.

I really like how easy this laptop is to upgrade. Immediately upon receiving it I added 2 16gb RAM bringing it up to a total of 32RAM. You can add a total of 32 to this one. I plan to also add a PCI-e ssd to it since it’s so easy and has an extra slot. Maybe later on I’ll add the 2.5 ssd!

A little slow sometimes.. but aIm liking

899.00 for this laptop great deal. Runs everything no problem.

I really liked the look of this computer and gaming was great for a laptop, but there was something wrong with it. As soon as I got it and updated everything, the keyboard started freezing and the only way to type was to turn it off and on with a mouse I had plugged in. At random times if I clicked on a drop down menu to type it would start typing random things or just entering spaces for no reason. Maybe a lemon? Idk.

I could not be more thrilled. This is my first gaming laptop and it’s amazing. It works quickly and I haven’t had any problems.
