Laptop summary

Acer Nitro 5 is a reasonably priced budget gaming laptop. It has the GeForce RTX 2060 GPU that is great for gaming. You can play older games on recommended settings, but using lower graphics settings you can run 40% of the games published this year. The laptop doesn't have the best Intel CPU, but enough RAM for its price. Full HD resolution is fine for the 15-inch 144 Hz IPS screen. The 250gb SSD storage is very small. It is quite heavy at 4.9 lbs.
