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

I do caution about their packaging, I took pictures just in case, it was bad, but everything is ok.

I use this for work and play. So far so good! Everything runs good and way lighter than my brick of a gaming laptop from 5 years ago.

BEWARE, this Hard Drive on this thing is too damn small, be prepared to order a second hard drive. Good news is it is easy to install once you do get one.

First of all the performance is great for any game you want to play, however, not all games can run at 60 fps on the highest graphics. For example, Doom Eternal can run perfectly and stay at 60 fps on medium graphics. Thats actually saying a lot considering doom is a very demanding game. Anything higher than medium will go past the 4gb vram limit. Now the big problem is the throttling. Yes this laptops CPU can hit 4.1 GHz, that doesnt mean it can control the heat emitting from such power. I mean seriously, even at start up it would hit the 80* C range, the highest and scariest temp it has gotten to was 90* C!!! At that temp the computer is basically killing itself. The fans do some good work but without a cooling pad it just cant get the airflow it needs. Even with the cooling pad its still in the 80* C range. So, This is what i did to fix it from throttling and keep it running cool and efficient (cooler temps mean better performance) I downloaded a application known as Throttle Stop, it is well known and trusted, HOWEVER it is VERY dangerous if you dont know what you doing. All i did was simply turn the GHz multiplier down to 33 (this means the CPU runs at 3.30 GHz) and then adjusted the Mv (millivolts) to -168Mv this is the magic number for me, now the CPU runs no hotter than 70* C, when playing arma 3 anyway. I have tried other demanding games and it seems to still throttle unfortunately, the next best thing is to limit the max power going to the CPU, to 99% this is done in the power management settings on windows. This is much safer, however, it makes the CPU run at 2.40 MHz (the base MHz) this will run cool! But it bottlenecks so much and just takes away the capability this computer has. So Final conclusion... This thing is literally to hot to handle, If the airflow and thermal paste were better it would run fine at 4.1 MHz but its just not. If your a tech person you could always reapply some better thermal paste but no telling if that would work better or not. Honestly tho, for this price, its OK. Just keep in mind that if you do get it, do not run it at 4.1 MHz. AND DO NOT TRY AND OVERCLOCK ANYTHING YOU WILL KILL IT AS IT IS ALREADY DYING OUT OF THE BOX.

Laptop is pretty great. Games run pretty well. However the battery isn’t the best.

This is powerful Gamer laptop, I love how easy and comfort is run Quality games like League of Legends, Fortnite , arrived in excellent condition, let me tell you, in the begin I think “another windows machine, we’ll let try” even when I am from the Mac computer world, this laptop run better games than the last MacBook Pro, this is a really good stuff!.

After a couple of months of usage, I noticed some noise issue with the fan. Now its been 2 years the fan is crackling like there is no tomorrow, this product is officially worthless as I can use it in a productive environment. I dont mind the expense as its only $700, but good lord focus on quality.

Bought this strictly for gaming away from home. It does the job, although higher-end games cause it to get really hot... to the point I decided to get a voltage throttler and slow down the CPU to keep it cooler.

Excellent, it works perfect. At first the first time I turned on was left in black but restore the BIOS and solved. Everything perfectly. I have used it for 3 days. I will be updating this as the time passes until now 10/10

Le design est vraiment bien fait, les proportions sont parfaites, les composants sont très puissants, mais, la durée de vie de la batterie est un peu faible et le prix reste assez élevé.
