A Detailed Review Of The Acer Nitro 5 15 (2020) Laptop
ACER NITRO 5 15 (2020) – Here is a thorough and detailed evaluation of the Nitro 5 15 (2020), highlighting its positive aspects as well as its drawbacks.
The Nitro 5 15 (2020) is an affordable gaming laptop that succeeds the 2019 Acer Nitro 5 featuring Intel 9th Generation CPUs. The 2020 version offers a choice between Intel 10th Gen. or AMD Ryzen 4000 H-series CPUs, along with the option of an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or GTX 1650 Ti discrete GPU.
It comes with various display options, including a 1080p 60Hz, 1080p 120Hz, and 1080p 144Hz panel. Users can customize the laptop with 8GB, 12GB, or 16GB of memory, as well as 256GB or 512GB of storage.
Regarding gaming performance, the Nitro 5 is powerful enough, managing to handle most contemporary AAA titles, albeit potentially requiring low graphics settings for smooth gameplay at 60fps in graphically intensive games. It exhibits minimal thermal throttling on the CPU and GPU and remains relatively cool and quiet even under heavy loads. Opting for a 120Hz or 144Hz display can enhance the gaming experience with smoother visuals and improved responsiveness, although none of the displays support variable refresh rates to minimize screen tearing. Unfortunately, some users have reported occasional keyboard input issues, which could be a significant drawback.
PROS

- CPU is powerful enough to handle most workloads.
- Minimal performance loss over time.
CONS
- The screen looks dull and faded.
