Today there is a great demand for gaming laptops among the young public, however, the main problem is that these models usually have quite high prices for all the features and benefits they offer. But luckily there are offers, and this one today is possibly one of those that cannot be escaped.
Acer Nitro 5 for 650 euros
At first glance, its 15.6-inch screen with Full HD resolution, the RGB backlit keyboard or its modest dimensions might catch your attention, but the most surprising thing is inside. And it is that this Acer Nitro 5 includes a Core i5-11400H processor at 2.70 GHz with 8 GB of RAM , 512 GB of SSD storage and an NVIDIA RTX 3050 graphics that will give you enough field to play current games.
It is a very interesting combination that is usually around 1,000 euros, but thanks to the 37% discount it is having on Amazon, it can be yours for only 649 euros .
Worth?
It seems to us to be a fantastic piece of equipment, as it will allow you to play current games without any problem. It is true that the resolution of the screen remains at Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) , but more resolution would affect performance as long as we want to play in native resolution. At least the panel’s refresh rate reaches 144 Hz , which is perfect for shooters and online competition.
It also includes a Killer Ethernet E2600 network card and Wi-Fi 6 , so there is plenty of connectivity. The RAM memory is somewhat scarce with those 8 GB DDR4, but they are two modules that can be updated later.
What you should keep in mind is that it does not include an operating system, so you will have to install Windows yourself. It is a strategy that many manufacturers use to lower the price by a few euros by not including an operating system license, and many choose to install Linux, which is free, and are not forced to pay more than necessary.
Alternatives?
The offer of this Acer model is very aggressive, so it is very difficult to find alternatives that match its price. We can find an ASUS TUF Gaming F15 with the same characteristics, although with more RAM (16 GB), but its price amounts to 729 euros. Of course, it does not include an operating system either.
We can also find a Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 with similar features, but opting for an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H processor. In its case, it arrives with the FreeDOS operating system that basically serves to turn it on, so you will also have to install Windows on your own.
As you can see, the offer of the Acer model is fantastic, and considering that it is a Flash offer from Amazon, you better hurry up before it disappears, since it is very likely that it will have a few hours left until it disappears completely.
