I own this laptop for a bit more than a week now

Great Gaming PC for those unable to have a desktop computer who still don’t want to sacrifice performance. (So long as the fans have proper clearance) I’ve been using it for a few months with no overheating issues or really any negative experience with the laptop at all! Unfortunately hours before writing this review my laptop managed to find its way out of a moving car window at 15 MPH. After a full test of the laptop theirs no damage to report excepts for some very minor surface scratches. All considered this purchase was well worth the money spent.

I recently upgraded my gaming setup with the Acer Nitro 17 gaming laptop, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. This powerhouse of a machine is equipped with the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processors and NVIDIA RTX4070 gpu, delivering an exceptional gaming performance that is truly next-level. Whether Im playing casually or engaging in intense online battles, this laptop can handle it all with ease.

Ive had this computer for about 6 months now and it has worked well for me. I havent run into any failures or nagging issues. Im not a heavy gamer but this device plays Cyberpunk and lately Elden Ring with no problems.

I will make this plain and simple. For those of you who are looking for something where you can just get right into gaming with high/ultra settings with great FPS without breaking the bank then this is the laptop for you. Very fast boot times, very little bloatware and easy to set up. This thing will run all of your games either on high or ultra settings by default if that is what you prefer. I recommend buying a cooling pad preferably the one from kootec. I have no issue with temps at all. The cooling pad keeps things cool. But overall the performance this thing delivers for its price is awesome.

Such a nice little rig. We dont really need the high refresh rate panel, but the MODERN Ryzen 7 and brand-new RTX 4050 are greatly appreciated. With laptops we prefer to not replace them often since they only do menial work, and this is replacing an old Lenovo with a 4th gen i7. It has been hard finding a reasonably priced 17 inch laptop with worthwhile specs and so far this is handling the job great. I have heard negative things about the Nitro line, but so far I have nothing negative to report. Havent tested it for gaming since it wont be used for that, but I may give it a try eventually in Cyberpunk to see how well the 4050 handle the frame-generation tech.

Frequent Blue Screen Of Death. When I first purchased it, would happen perhaps once a week. After owning it 1 year, it now happens twice a day. BSOD doesnt appear to be related to high computer usage as it is just as likely to happen when idle or watching a YouTube video as it is while playing a game. Never had this problem with any other computer I have owned.

As a beginner gamer, I dont know all the details that makes a gaming computer good. Gaming on this device is a very distinct experience compared to regular PCs and laptops. From what Ive noticed there is no lag on most games, it handles graphics intensive games well, and the hard drive size makes it easy to download multiple games without running out of space. Compared to my everyday laptop (ASUS Chromebook), this handles games without struggling, lagging, or just outright crashing. Ive used this laptop to play most of the mainstream games (COD, Apex Legends, Destiny, etc) and had a great experience. The performance maintained the same smoothness even with adding a controller.

Yes, its an expensive laptop. This isnt for someone who just wants to surf the internet. This baby is a beast. I play The Sims 4 on it with the highest quality graphics possible, and it runs like a dream. It also looks amazing compared to the 2-year-old MacBook Pro I was previously using. Its a great size - not super portable because its really heavy and large, but that wasnt much of a surprise. I just love this so, SO much. As for battery life, when Im using it for non-gaming, its really long-lasting, but it does use a lot of power when Im playing games, so I need to keep it plugged in.

Very good and capable computer, but the high temps make me wonder how this piece of kit will be after 3-4 years in a power users hands. Guess we shall see.
