Acer Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop, 9th Gen Intel Core i5-9300H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, 15.6 Full HD IPS Display, 8GB DDR4, 256GB NVMe SSD, Wi-Fi 6, Backlit Keyboard, Alexa Built-in, AN515-54-5812

Wouldn’t connect to any online games said NAT was closed when all of my other computers would do it. Wasn’t impressed!

Great computer especially for the price of $599. Boots so fast. Not a ton of space if games but there are slots for additional hard drives. I already added a tb hard drive (Sabrent Rocket Q 1TB NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 Internal SSD High Performance Solid State Drive R/W 3200/2000MB/s). I plan to add RAM at some point

A very good laptop for a very affordable price.

The system itself works well, and everything is sufficiently fast enough. However, the keyboard is the worst laptop keyboard Ive ever used. While other keyboards will have all letters represented by pressing them, sometimes, youll need to go back and definitively press each key, as has happened multiple times while typing even this review.

Computer was working fine until a week ago. It’s been two months and the keyboard has completely stopped working, I’ve reached out to acer twice about getting it fixed and have yet to send me any info on how to do so. It’s been two weeks not being able to use my computer. I had an Alienware gaming laptop for 10 years and never single issue, had an acer for two months and hardware is failing.

It’s the best budget gaming computer

Love this thing! I got it as a backup for streaming from my gaming system, and to play some older titles on-board. Some find the screen a little dim, I dont notice that. Its only got a GTX1650, so youre not looking at Anthem at Ultra settings with this, though itll run everything out at the time of this writing. This is for casual gaming, after all. If your looking to squeeze out high FPS at 4k youre not going anywhere near this for sure. That isnt a knock--at this price point this laptop is a screaming deal.

If you want to beat your head with a mallet, choose this laptop over it. I haul a storage drive, battery, and what not to make sure I play one game. I look like a lunatic the amount it takes to do a simple task on this thing. Do yourself a favor and spend a bit more

Honestly, so far so good and Ima enjoy playing games again. After some life changes I became homeless and left my old pc behind. Now Im in my own apartment and I decided I would get this laptop to get back into gaming again. Fast delivery and that was great! First day getting it and Im excited. Ill probably update my review in time.

For what I paid for it, I think its a nice laptop. I disagree that the cooling is noisy. even with the fans ramped up to speed its not that bad. I like the backlit keyboard. I like that it has room for expansion. I ordered a second pcie nvme wd black sn850 intending to dual boot ubuntu, and installed that. very fast drive. I also ordered a second 8gb of ram and installed that. and since I had the bottom cover off anyways I installed a 2.5hdd that had a bunch of stuff I use already on it. Its been 2 weeks with it and seems to run pretty good. I did have to spend a little more to make it what I want, but its still a good machine before I upgraded it.
