Reviews for the Acer Aspire Nitro 5 AN515-41-F1XF

Acer Nitro 5 review
Source: Stuff TV
Not everyone can afford a monster gaming laptop, so it’s great to see Acer delivering 1080p performance at a reasonable price. The Nitro 5 might not be the prettiest or lightest laptop around, but if you want high frame rates, those are sacrifices you’ll have to make.

Acer Nitro 5 review (AMD configuration) – absurdly cheap AMD-powered gaming laptop
Source: Laptop Mag
Finally, the cooling system seemed to have done its job pretty well even during our long and heavy stress test – neither the CPU or the GPU throttled while the latter was running surprisingly cool. We are not sure, however, if the Intel/NVIDIA version will do just as well with the same cooling design, which, by the way, proved to be quite bad in numerous other cases – Acer Predator Helios 300, Lenovo Legion Y520, etc.
