Comment

Model: The Acer Aspire V15 Nitro BE VN7-592G-79DV is a gaming laptop catered to gamers and multimedia users. The build quality is good and the chassis is light, slim and sleek-looking. The Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64-bit edition system features a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor, a dedicated Nvidia GeForce GTX 960M dedicated graphic card, 16 GB DDR4 RAM and a 512 GB Lite-On SSD and a 1 TB Western Digital HDD. Its 15.6-inch matte display from Sharp features 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, uses IPS technology and delivers good brightness and contrast as well as pleasant colors.

The Chiclet keyboard features a backlight and is suitable for comfortable typing, while the trackpad offers a smooth and overall solid performance. While the gaming laptop lacks a DVD drive, it comes with a card reader. Connectivity includes two USB 3.0 ports, a USB 3.1 port, a USB 2.0 port, a Thunderbolt port, an HDMI port, a DisplayPort, an audio combo jack and a Kensington Lock for security. It weighs 2.3 kg and has a battery life of up to 3 hours and 38 minutes during Wi-Fi surfing.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M: Upper mid-range graphics card of the GeForce GTX 900M series.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

6700HQ: Skylake-based quad-core processor for notebooks. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 530 GPU and is manufactured in 14 nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

Acer computers are designed for a variety of purposes, including ultrabooks for mobile use, gaming laptops for gamers, affordable options for everyday tasks, and 2-in-1 convertible laptops for versatility. Acer's product portfolio also includes tablets that offer portable computing and multimedia capabilities.

74.87%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
