With the Acer Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop available in 15 or 17 inches, you can go full throttle—whether you use it for casual gaming or to climb online leaderboards. Dominate the gaming world with the combined power of an AMD Ryzen 6000 processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series GPUs, fully optimized for maximum MGP. Configure your laptop for top speed and massive storage with two M.2 PCIe slots and up to 32 GB of DDR5 4800 RAM. Everything looks better in QHD, and AMD FreeSync ensures that frames stay in sync. The lightning-fast refresh rate of 165 Hz and a response time of 3 ms guarantee smooth, stutter-free, and unparalleled gaming sessions. The newly refined chassis features a few extra tricks like dual-fan cooling, dual intakes (top and bottom), and a quad exhaust design. With the NitroSense program, you gain additional control and take command over fan speeds, lighting, and more.
With the 4-zone RGB keyboard, you can add some flair and take command of the laptop's internals via the dedicated NitroSense key. The WASD and arrow keys are also highlighted for quick access. Enhanced audio quality provides an advantage and a more immersive sound experience through two 2-watt speakers. With DTS:X Ultra, the sound is clear and can be rendered in a spatial 3D soundscape, allowing you to pinpoint exactly where your opponents are coming from. With the Intel Killer E2600 Ethernet Controller and the Wi-Fi 6E connection standard, you have all the tools you need to outshine the online competition. Connect all your peripherals to the numerous ports, including HDMI 2.1, the new powerful USB4, and the latest USB 3.2 standard with Gen1 and Gen2 support.
