Really wanted to like the Nitro 5. But with the Acer Helios 300 and the Acer VX15 available, you should pass on this one. Thanks for watching!

Dave: not worth the money 100%of the comments: it’s worth it

The nitro 5 is 600$ right now.... And you're asking me to buy a *slightly better* Laptop for DOUBLE THE PRICE I don't think you understand how money works...

"don't buy a Camaro, don't worth the price, buy a Lamborghini instead"

DUDE WE ARE POOR THATS ALL CAN WE AFFORD #POOR4EVER

Nitro 5 - $700 Aspire - $1150 Comparing apples to oranges imo

I bought a Acer nitro 5 and have owned it for roughly 5 months. i5 - 8300 GTX 1050ti 8gb ram (more on the way) It has handled every single game I have thrown at it. From Squad to Battlefield and forza horizon 3. It does indeed get warm and hot but the nitrosense with cool boost keeps it in the safe range. Still a little warm to the touch on the top left of the keyboard but never uncomfortable. This is a great laptop and I think Dave compares who this laptop is made for to his own personal standards which his standards cost 1000s of dollars. I wanted a laptop do some schoolwork and replace an aging PC (R7 260X A10 CPU) and to do some fairly heavy gaming. It does all I ask it to do in Full HD running most new games on high or medium to high. This is indeed the best gaming laptop for the price Im not talking down on Daves reviews. I just think he doesnt understand the concept of a budget laptop. Update April 2020: Stay safe during Covid and God Bless you!

I love how I'm not the only one that thought he was kinda wrong

Acer vx15 is 300 dollars more. You cant compare an 800 dollar laptop to an 1100 dollar laptop. Smh

'The wrong choice' he said 'Its very good and better than most laptops' he also said So why should we pay about 200$ more for something *slightly better*

dude, you really should get more in touch with your viewers... saying "but again, it's just a $900 laptop" means you have no idea how the majority of people live. To many, a lot many, this is a higher mid-range laptop, and $900 is A LOT to many, people would be saving up for it.

Acer Nitro 5 Review - ☑️ The Good Choice

Don't buy this affordable laptop buy a more expensive one instead

The moment when you are watching this video on a Acer Nitro 5

Everytime you say cheap I die a little

"There's something better then this" Laptop over $1000 the acer nitro 5's price

Lol, i bought this laptop a month ago, the 2019 ver for $600 and i never regret it. Why even buy a laptop that's a $1000 with only minor difference.

I think, for the first time, I disagree with your review. Saying it's a "Wrong Choice" are very strong words considering it has great build/looks, great specs, great price, good keyboard/mouse and no major downside.. the fans are quite and even have cool boost

im watching this on an acer nitro 5 and im not having any thermal issues

3:33 "playing game for a short burst for 15-20 minutes" great, what kind of people, buy a budget gaming laptop to game for 15-20 minutes?

Had mine for a year now, and here's my thought on it. i5 - 8300 GTX 1050ti 8gb RAM Got it for $500 and at the start it runs pretty hot, but i've installed a cooling pad and throttlestop to help the heat reduction. Games run great and it's ABSOLUTELY worth the money. The monitor is only 60hz but I sometimes plug mine into a 144hz screen with a HDMI when I'm stationed and it works perfect. If you find one for a decent price, go for it.

I’d be cautious taking advice from him.... He thinks apple is gud....

*This popped up on my recommended today and my Nitro 5 is arriving tomorrow lol.*

Nah. Best laptop I've ever owned. Love this thing.

Lol, it's like 800 or 900 dollars and he says a 1000 dollar laptop is better. NO SHIT ITS BETTER.

Bought this laptop with i5 7300, 8gb ram, GTX 1050ti for 730 Euro. While playing games without coolboost i get around 65 celsius degees in the GPU and around 75 c in the CPU . it gets a bit loud but i dont feel any enormous hit in the keyboard. People who got skeptisch after this review should not be afraid. If you want a cheap casual gaming laptop go for it.

I have this laptop but 2018 edition ( GTX 1060 ) and use it for video editing, love it so much. For the price point this is the cheapest and worth buying on the market right now. Im not complaining what so ever. Get this one you'll never regret it.

Hello... the nitro 5 is a great laptop. Y u bully people who can’t buy 1000$ laptops

Now there is a 300 dollar gap between the two The nitro 5 Is cheaper Cost around 778

He's lost his damn mind.

Hi dave, review the updated version (nitro 5 2019) 😁

This review is stupid. He is suggesting a laptop thats twice the price yet slightly improved. 2x Price for 5Fps ?? Also there is a Intel 8th Gen version that can do everything as the suggested one in the Description.

Hey Dave...when is the new dell Inspiron gaming 7577 review coming up...?

There's a Ryzen 5 - RX 560 version of this. Is there any chance you review that one?

Dude you expect it to be good but it’s for people who use it for school and game

Really stunned seeing how you proved it bad without having any facts(cons you may say) to discuss about at all!

As a recent NItro 5 user, i may have a few tips on how to control the temperatures. I run games like fallout 4 and Total War Rome 2 (I purposely run them at 1600X900 because of the fps dropping below 60 sometimes in 1080p, not sure whether the non-TI 1050 4GB Vram is not capable or because i am short on RAM (8gb only)), but even at 900p my Nitro 5 runs very hot, average temps of 80-90, even reaching 97 degrees. So after a bit of research, i came across throttlestop, and in the FIVR settings, i lowered the max turbo ratio limits of each core from 40 to 35 ( The i5 8300h's base processing speed is 2.5ghz, boostable up to 4.0ghz). So essentially, i lowered the maximum turbo boost of the i5 8300h to 3.5ghz (down from 4.0ghz), alongside a -125mv of undervolt. Now my Nitro 5 doesn't overheat anymore, average temps of around 70-80 with barely any noticable drop in frames. Hope this helps! ;D Edit : Turns out the high temps in my case is just bcs of bad factory thermal paste, i went and replaced it with KRYONAUT THERMAL GRIZZLY and now at max boost (4.0ghz), getting max temps of 80ish, avg of 70ish. Tip : Just replace ur thermal paste, factory ones suck. Note : If ur having hesitations just wait until the warrantys over, like mine when i went to replace the thermal paste.

I paid $1400 for this laptop because I live in Canada. The Acer VX15 costs over $1700 with tax over here in Canada, good review but your recommendations are over 300+ more dollars here in Canada. I've done quite a bit of research and have determined that this laptop is the best price to performance for the Canadian viewers watching...

Hi Dave, the more recent acer nitro 5 with gtx 1060 and i7 8th gen has an extra pipe running only from the graphics card to the sink. would that be any better, should I go for it?

Hi Dave Im get confused between Acer nitro 5 and hp pavilion power 15 bc 407 tx help me....

I miss the thermal test Dave. You talk too much about the thermal design, very logic words but: where are the numbers? Numbers are critical to say if thermal design isnt effective. Anyway nice review.

Inform and educate, but don't sway influence. I initially subscribed because I value your honest and thorough analysis, but a title like "The Wrong Choice" is kind of taking it too far. Your viewers can come to their own conclusion.

Hi this may be a stupid question as i'm not great on computers but i want one for gaming. If you connect this to a 4K monitor will it run in 4K on the monitor or only 1080p. Thanks!

i've been using Acer nitro 5 for 2 years, so it's awesome! specs: i5 7300hq 2x8gb ram 2400mhz gtx 1050 ti

The monitor flickering in the background is fucking with me 😂

i have this laptop...i5 7300hq gtx 1050...i am very satisfied with it...i upgraded it to 16gb ram and it feels smoother...even with 4gb ram,gaming is still smooth though :)

So, what would you recommend instead if this laptop?

The one you recommended is literally double the price, I think I’ll stick with the nitro 5.

Though you've reviewed two models of that Dell gaming laptop, we're positive you'll review the newer 7577

loving all these new intros!!

My Nitro 5 while I'm watching youtube idles out at 109 - 140 degrees for the cpu and 95 - 100 for the gpu. Is that bad and if it is how do I stop it?

Huh!? Even $500-600$ is a lot for me and u want me to double. Damnn that’s my months rent dude!! 😳

lol just got this for christmas, it’s an amazing improvement compared to what i had. really happy with it.

I'm glad you mention Dell 7577. I'm really curious how 1060 Max Q is compared to the original 1060 and to 1050Ti. Please do a review on that.

Dave, theres new laptop from Acer Nitro 7 which has i5 9300h and has GTX 1660 ti, please make a review of it

Hey man. Thanks for the video. Can you recommend me a professional laptop(convertible) and also can be used for moderate games. Hoping to get that suggestion.

Dave thanks for this review. Can you also review the new dell inspiron 7577. I am interested in purchasing that one. Pls do a review.thanks alot

Hey dave, did you get your hands on the new dell 7577 yet? I think i will get the 1060 Version soon, its much cheaper than the Hp omen with same specs.

Is this laptop suitable for daily normal works...because i am a college student..is this laptop suitable for working like programming and any other things?

Okay, so the Nitro is like 750$ and the VX 15 is 1020$ on amazon. Which one do you recommend in this case? I plan on extended gaming periods plugged to a power outlet, and will be playing game slime Fallout 4 with ENB mods. And i live in a dorm that rotates rooms every few months (my college is weird), so i cant get a desktop.

When is the 7577 review coming ? Planning to buy a 7567. Should i wait for the 7577 ?

These intro's are 🔥man!

Hi Dave, I have a question about this laptop since I got one myself. So why does mine comes with a Predator logo ?? I bought mine in Indonesia, and I bought mine from an official Acer Center. Is there any specific reason ? Since I can't seem to find out why some has the Predator logo, but some has

Does it violite the warranty if you upgrade it with more RAM ? And can you put GTX 1050Ti or 1060 into this model ? Nominal GTX1050 is not enough really

Awesome video! Can u review the updated Dell Inspiron 15 with gtx1060? Thanks!

who games for 20 min?

Is this laptop can run very well if I'm using autocad 2016/2018 and low/medium graphic games?

What is better for lifetime and heating Nitro 5 with i5 8300h and gtx 1050 Hp pavilion gaming with i5 8300h and gtx 1050ti what of these two laptop you would choose cause I'm confused what should I buy??

Well, ive had mine for a couple months now and a friend of mine has the helios 300 and regarding thermals it doesnt throttle a bit, even been playing on it on the beach, idk why you throw so much shit at it and focus so much on the fan design when the helios 300 has the very same system.... explain that?

Considering this laptop is available significantly lesser than VX15 and Predator and dell i think i might go with this

I’ve had this laptop for a year now and I would recommend it to anyone wanting a laptop under $600, a quick search on eBay and you’ll find one for $525 and the only complaint I’ve ever had is it gets up to 80 degrees when playing really graphical games. Luckily though, with a quick repaste temps dropped down to 65 being the max, and 55 being the average. The screen is another complaint that people have had, you can replace the screen with a much better 120hz screen easily for $50. If you want a gaming laptop and you don’t have much money, get this. Simple. (Edit: he said the speakers aren’t great, I think they’re extremely good for a $800 retail laptop.)

Hello sir Dave Lee.... Which is better? Acer Nitro 5 Ryzen 5 (515-43) or Lenovo Y540?

Is it great for its price☺

Dave lee please make a review video of dell inspiron 7577 with gtx1060

Me: picks out a laptop Dave: Dont buy this Me: oh Me: picks a different laptop Dave: bad idea Me: oH Me: Picks our another laptop Dave: Wrong choice Me: AGH IM BROKE MAN

Yeah, sure if you spend more money, you will get something better, what a genius you are my man

Can you review the new updated Dell Inspiron 15 7000 series

Are u going to review the dell 7577?

Thanks, man! It was hard for me to decide whether I would purchase the VX 15 or this one.

Indeed i own one now. It handles every game i own without issues but sometimes it can get worrying Hot, Just to start cooling down on itself moments later. On my previous laptop i had an extractor that worked wonderfully to help with heating issues. What are my options to help the Nitro 5 cooling better?

Dave! Do a review on the Asus ROG Gl702vs Please! It's a new titanium design with 120Hz 1080p display and a 7700HQ with a GTX 1070. Edit: Also, first!

I got the I7 7700hq, 16 GB ddr4 ram and the 4 GB gtx 1050 version since the pricing of the competition is much different in India and I'm pleased with its performance getting an avg of 55 fps on overwatch fhd epic settings while going down to 45 when it's much more demanding in kings row while playing lucio and stuff, having a steady 60 fps on warframe with occasional drops when in the lush earth levels, above 60 fps on fortnite with in the middle of high and epic settings. Also playing planetside 2 with the fps rarely going down below 60 with ultra settings disabling shadows and having lighting effect on medium. There is not overheating problem witnessed on my side considering I've had it since Oct 31

1:47 Are you sure about that? I like your content and it's really helpful but I got a 2018 model but I checked the drivers when I was messing with the mouse cursor settings and the properties area said elan drivers

Hello sir which is the best laptop for gaming and editing under 800$

Idk, I have an Acer Nitro 5 and I think it's a decent computer, Gets the job done and I enjoy using it.

Had this laptop for about 6 months,but ended up selling it to one of my friends that wanted to get into pc gaming.I bought an Alienware aurora for better performance,but overall I had a great experience with this laptop!

lol he says buy this instead: a $1800 laptop. the nitro 5 is now $600-$650. definitely worth it

what do you mean by good build quality ? the reliability or the aesthetics ?

Dave can you make an updated video on this based on how it is now in 2018 and since the price dropped

I bought the nitro 5 , i7 with 2gb gtx 1050 even after watching this video because the price at which i got it was really good . The laptop you are showing is the top end of this series . Obviously there are more options in that price bracket . To all those indians who are skeptical about acer nitro 5 , dont be . If you are getting the nitro 5 in your price range go for it !( amazon and flipkart keeps dropping good discounts once in every 2-4 weeks )

And for 2.000$ what I can choose ? 17,3 inch MSI GS75 Stealth 8SF is ok?

Since this video is 2 and a half years old and the nitro 5 is still $800 cad is there any new laptops that are $800 cad that are way better than this now?

We have a sale today in India.. thought of buying this laptop!! Acer vx 15 and dell 7567 , predator all are above one lakh and this laptop is about 68k. Please any suggestions??

Waiting for the Inspiron 7577 review

Hello, in this category, the price and specifications are equal to which of these laptops is more economical to play acer nitro 5 gtx 1650ti asus fx506 gtx1650ti

For where I live, we get the Nitro 5 version with Ryzen 5, GTX 1650, 8GB RAM which is expandable to 16GB, 1TB HDD, 2 SSD slots for expansion. The above configuration retails at approx 650 dollars. So easy to recommend.

Acer VX15 costs $400 more then the Nitro 5 in borneo :/

Can you make a video on Dell 5577???

Is it okay to play games in laptop while charging. Is there any issues about that?

If u had to choose Between this one and hp pavilion 15 which one would you choose?
