4060
Yes. That's the GPU. Graphics Processor Unit.
Ryzen 5 came with 4050, this model has 4060.
Damn son, 10 years worth the wait for first bargain post it looks like.
Looks good
Meh doesnt have, oled, cant upgrade ram and probably overheats fast. Nice for gamers but the other model with the 4050 wouldve been better in terms of bargain.
Waiting for a 32gb ryzen 7 copilot oled bargain myself
This laptop has 2 RAM slots with heatshield and thermal pads. Cooling system is actually very good - dual heatsink/fan. Essentially same internals as this.. Why jump to conclusions? Acer has done an excellent job for the price.
Oh the ram has 2 slots so assuming this is 16gb upgradeable is not that bad and the review of the cooling sounds pretty good. I think the cheaper bargain was much better still but depends on what games you play i guess.
Still want a copilot ddr5 ryzen 7 laptop, not a gamer just oure business.
Yep, comes with 1x16GB DDR5 5200. Price/performance ratio of the 4050 deal was better, but for the price, this is still very good value
x86 Copolit laptops are still a few months away
Why are 4:3 square screens being made for this laptop? They also have other Nitro models with 16:9 screens.
edit: ok so it's a 16:10, still looks squarish to me
Its 16:10 which is much better than 16:9 but maybe not as good as 3:2.
More and more notebooks are going back to that format after falling out of fashion over ten years ago./*
Was just reading up about the comeback of 16:10 screens, I never even knew they were a thing. Never used one but I can see the benefit of more text on the screen vertically.
I upgraded my old Nitro V about 6 weeks ago and noticed this. Was wondering why they had 2 models and completely ruled out the V16 models and bought a V15.
ASUS ROG models are at least $1000 more than this, and even then I’d hesitate on those, despite them being built by a company that specialises is high end gaming solutions.
Having said that their vivobooks and zenbooks are excellently priced.
I’ve never been a fan of Acer or MSI laptops. ASUS “should” know what they are doing and how to deal with the the heat from the OLED screen AND a RTX 4060, however I would still suspect a lot of fan noise or a lot of thermal throttling.
Hence the IPS screen, but OLED screens can eat battery life if you aren’t careful, they are getting better, still this is a high spec machine from Acer.
Me personally, I still would have trouble buying one as a mobile gaming platform, but even worry about the hours from non gaming use.
Having had hands on this exact laptop, it has no trouble dealing with heat . Two fans, 4 heatsink areas, and large vents. While no match for an OLED, I was pleasantly surprised with the IPS panel, particularly at this price point. I unboxed this laptop not expecting much, but it certainly has impressed. Yes, it's mostly plastic, but it is sturdier than I original assumed.
Good deal that can stack with GC discount. Good CPU and GPU. Bad screen though.
The ryzen 5 with 4050 was 1097 weeks ago but i was too slow :(
