What a damn good deal bro holy shit. How has your experience been on it? And do you have a small pros and cons list you can provide us with?
@@kombokenji I love it, was a little low on storage with 512gb but I'll get an upgraded 1TB soon. 16gb ram it came with which I'd definitely recommend if thats not whats equipped already. The Nitro Sense app could use some tweaking as when I manually turn it to higher performance settings it gets a little glitchy on gaming. Otherwise it runs like a champ, use it with a 2nd monitor as the primary, with a USB hub to accomodate pretty much every device I need.
@@BigMitchFit That sounds awesome! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to answer that question of mine, it’s nice to hear others opinions online about their things they brought
Only problem is you picked up the 2019 variant that has bad thermals
Benchmarks:
Apex 5:41
COD 7:17
Halo Infinite 8:40
its not much but its honest work

I have this laptop just with the Ryzen 7/RTX 3060 and I freaking love it!! Runs all my games at ultra settings with no issues.
I have the Nitro 5, i5 10300H / RTX 3060. Out of the box the CPU was thermal throttling at 93 degrees, laptop manufacturers use very low quality thermal paste, that is if the job is even done correctly. The GPU runs very cool.
For anyone needing to solve this issue - You can repaste with a high quality thermal compound if you have the know how, or you can adjust the maximum processor state of the CPU.
Go to Control panel-
Hardware and Sound-
Power Options-
Change plan settings-
Change advanced power settings-
Processor power management-
Change maximum processor state from 100 > 99.
This will disable turbo boost on the chip. You will now be running at the base clock speed of the CPU. It will solve the throttling issue but now you're limited to your base clock which will cause fps drops in CPU intensive games. There's always a trade off or sacrifice with gaming laptops.
Nobody is reading this 😂
I have the 15.5" (same specs as the video) and got mine for $899 ($975 after tax) on a blackfriday sale that lasted through the weekend at best buy. I love mine! It's my first "gaming laptop " and needed a good new laptop in general as my old one for just projects and general browsing crashed.
So far I have played rainbow six seige and modern warfare on it and both look and play amazing!!!
Same, but I got it for $1400 AUD
Personally i bought the i5-11400h with the 3060 version for 900$ i think it is better value for money even if you have to upgrade the ram from 8 to 16 but it's just my pick !
I would do the same just for that gpu upgrade
From where?

I have the same upgraded to 16gb ram and threw in a 1 tb ssd

Yh bro
Wanted to buy Lenovo legion 5/5 pro but wasn't available...Ended up getting the HP PAVILION GAMING 15 with 5800H,3050Ti,16GB ram,256+1tb,144Hz display & Windows 10....used it for 5 days,so far i am pretty impressed with this laptop to be honest..
does it get hot or not cause i wanna buy ine
Did you get it in amazon? Because I don't think they have on target or stuff.
@@konjenix769 Not facing an overheating issue yet
@@Labib117 nice how are temps normally playing light titles
I bought a used 1650 with a Ryzen 5 version of the Nitro 5 for $500, and can I just say, that is the true best budget gaming laptop. Too bad it didn't have the ribbon cable for the expansion, so I'll have to find one online when I decide to do it.
The nitro 5 has a second nvme slot I believe. I have one and upgraded the ram and put in a 2.5" ssd and noticed that.
What about the hp pavillion gaming laptop
I like the models they made this year, 100% sRGB and up to a 3060. Thats the one I want. The brightness is not as good as I’d want it but this is still nice.
This is one of the best and there is one on amazon for $780 with a rtx 3050 and intel 10500H
Where is the link?
Bought a legion 5 pro with a R7 5800H, RTX 3070, 16gb ram for like 100$ more than this. Doesn't strike me as a great deal this one
I think you just got lucky with the legion
Damn bro where'd you find that crazy deal, i can't even find a 3060 version as low as that
you got that for $1100? sorry thats kinda hard to believe because they normally go for like $1700
Don't know how euros convert to dollars right now but yeah, got the legion with these specs for 1179€ during BF with additional rebate for students (not a student anymore but as long as you have your old uni email address you're good). Maybe we get more availability and better price in Europe, I don't know
@@Guitarball1995 wow u definitely got super lucky, here we have to pay at least $1650-$1700 or even more
MSI GF65 with 10th gen I5 and an RTX 3060 was on sale for $849 at Best Buy for black friday.
Got the i7-11800h rtx 3060 model.
I can finally run Google Classroom (Memes aside, my browser always crashes on my previous laptop). But in all seriousness, absolutely love this beast
Heya..please will you recommend this now and how long does battery last when gaming and when doing casual work?
@@theophilusheyman7518 it dies in like 30 minutes tops
I actually I’m not joking just bought this laptop for my brother hopefully he likes it!
such a good brother! he´s gonna love it I´m sure
If he doesn’t he is spoiled af
1 thing to say is that if you get the 8gb ram variant definitely upgrade it to 16gb. I had around 80fps in apex and after the upgrade I got solid 144
yeah that's a minor " knit pick " I have ( besides the screen ) and in this " era " of gaming laptops I think 16 GB in every laptop is a requirement unless it's the " lower " priced models a company offers
@@And1slash agreed
@@And1slash some say even 24 is need nowadays but idk
@@bebetterthanthepersonyouwe5857 depends on what you're doing
for my use I think 16 GB ram is enough for what I do
however 8 GB is a tad low for a " gaming " laptop
@@And1slash but the thing is I never knew that a shortage of ram could lead to half a performance loss
I got mines on black friday for $679. Can't upgrade storage on the MacBook Pro. I can put a ton of storage on this thing. As much as I want and upgrade to 32GB of RAM. Mines is an i5 model. Its pretty much an i7 from 2017.
Got an Alienware m15 with a ryzen 5800h 16gb 3200mhz dual channel RAM, 3060, 512gb SSD, 165hz 1080 screen and killer wifi for 1100 last week.
Where bro plz reply?
Another budget laptop video? I can’t get enough of these. Still hoping for prices to go down here in the Philippines. Way too expensive for my budget right now. Definitely still gonna keep watching these videos. Cheers Toasty Bros!
Funny thing is I wouldn't call this budget considering it's performance
Real budget is a 1000$ good laptop that’s better then this
@@xendergod253 Bought my Lenovo Legion 5 for 800$ with an i7 10th gen and 1650ti and its been working fine
Got mine 2yrs ago for about 1100$
It has an i7-10750h , a GTX 1650 Ti, 512gb SSD , 32gb Ram and 144hz display such a good laptop
Why not touch on build quality?
Pretty much across the board the Acer laptops have crap plastic build quality and flex in the keyboard.
One of the biggest complaints you see is their keyboard so this seemed kind of biased.
I bought this unit at the mall here in my hometown because of a Christmas sale at the mall and I've been wanting to have a laptop like this for a long time. acer nitro 5 also of course and its specs are i5-11400H, 8GB DDR4 RAM 3200 MHz, 512GB NVMe SSD, 15.6 ”Full HD IPS 144 Hz, NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 3050 .. price 1,100 dollars in pesos its 55,000 original price.
This is what I’m saving up for. Haven’t watched the vid yet but hope it’s as good as I think it is.
Try the hp pavilion gaming desktop I mean if u don't have 144hz get the laptop
I'm not going to try to change your mind but I'd save up a bit more money for a better brand
the screen might not be the best ( assuming things have changed this year )
My only thing with gaming laptops is that the one i bought didn’t even last an hour and then it died. So i’m probably not going to buy a gaming laptop again
@@And1slash I have my Own monitor and will only be using the laptop screen for when I’m not home
@@doge9347 sounds like a good plan
using a external monitor will even boost the FPS too ( there's a channel called Jarrods tech tips or similar ) with " optimus " disabled
the laptop screen and ram is what limits it mainly
The vram counter is always wrong on cods. It doesn't use as much as it says in my experience. Go by what the system requirements are, not the in game counter
This is what I’m getting for Christmas with a logitech mouse and rib mouse pad
The major drawbacks of budget laptops like these is the battery. Most of them uses small 41-56WHr batteries which is around the same amount in regular cheap thin and light laptops. Gaming on the battery will only last 1-2 hours at max
but you are not gonna use a gaming laptop on battery tbh
Got a similar one (i5 12500H instead of the i7) used on ebay for 400$, only detail being the keyboard doesn't work (plugged in an external keyboard and done), and this thing still stands strong. Can run pretty much anything smoothly and streaming goes smooth as well.
Picked one up with an i5 10300h and 8gb of ram for $630 and I’ve yet to use it but I’m really excited to use it!!
Got the exactly the same for 180$ + did you also have the gtx 1650ti version?

You guys reviewed a gaming laptop without telling us the noise levels. That’s an important detail to mention when it comes to laptop reviews.
just look at different reviews. also nice essay you made. too bad nobody cared
jus got this for christmas thank you guys for helping me choose a nice gaming laptop
Amazon now selling this with 8gb ram 512gb storage for only 740 usd
I looked at different brands and models Acer, Lenovo legion, Asus ROG & TUF, MSI, Alienware. In the end I chose an MSI G75 thin because of price, but mainly for upgrade capabilities. Got a 2TB NvMe drive, 4TB SSD and 64 GB ram. For some reason when I did the upgrades a week after I got it, the speakers didn't work. I had to send it back to MSI. It's still a mystery why the speakers wouldn't get any sound. It was getting sound through headset and Bluetooth.
ended up buying the 15 inch with the 1650 for 400 used in like new condition. So far im happy with it for my needs it serves me well
this laptop would have been so good if it had a 3060 in it, the sad part is that a 3050ti laptop is not even worth it if you can get a 3060 one because the performance if actually quite alot
I purchased this computer with the 15.6 screen for $899 at Best Buy! This was by far the best purchase I’ve made in a while! I watched the price drop $200 from Black Friday til 2 weeks ago!
Yeah I saw that laptop on best buy, couldn't grab it tho
got the same laptop from best buy for $799.99 on black friday
I have the 10th Gen and I'm happy with it, the 11th Gen looks slightly better.
Buying this soon , thank you so much for the review , will be getting this to the some game on and work going 👍🏼
I already bought one when I found a great blackfriday deal for the 15in one with a 3050ti and 16 gb of ram only about 900
Just ordered one after selling my desktop so that I can game more on the go. Super excited
$1200+ is called budget now. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Those hinges break so often. Just be kind while open or shutting down your laptop
I wanted to say first but then i knew it was cringe.
same
Here's a tip,try to use time-lapse for a easy navigation 😉
i just bought this laptop after watching this video no regrets my first gaming laptop $905 thank you guys for your channel so good
I got a Gigabyte G5 GD laptop with i5-11400H CPU, 15.6" 144Hz 1080p, RTX 3050M, and 16GB RAM on sale for $700. Can't build anything even close for that money, and I haven't seen the price that low since.
Yeah, 3050, and I wish I'd been a to get the G5 KD with RTX 3060M instead for $850, but this will do for now
ACER NITRO 5???? I HAVE IT TOOOO AT 12TH NOVEMBER!! I REALLY DECIDED TO CHOOSE THIS!! I am sooo really surprised! Let's f***in goooo!
...and I got Windows 11 on this laptop!!! For real!!!
I just got the best deal of my life. Rtx 3050ti ryzen 7 5800h 16gb ddr4 ram 512 nvme ssd for only $900
Ordered mine, getting here tomorrow. Cant wait 😩
How is it?
Please do the MSI Gf63 9th gen or 10th gen
This actually is really great. Id love to have this laptop to stream on
Got my Best Buy’s last one for my son just yesterday super fast an great performance
Question? Should I buy this or the victus?
building your credit is a good thing. the way i see it is if i pay monthly on a gaming laptop and pay alot of intrest its worth spending that extra money to raise my credit score as long as you do everything correctly its not a bad idea.
I'd rather go for a legion 5 with a 3060 for that price point
vouch^
this laptop is sooo good i found one with a 3060 and its at the top of my laptop choises tbh
lenovo legion 5
trust meeeeeeeeeeee
@@neon3d602 oh yeah i really want that one but i can only find higher end version of it that cost 2000 Canadain dollor

After watching this channel for a few months i notice that they have been doing reviews for the same laptop multiple times... Especially the victus, ideapad gaming and pavillion.
once developers somehow improve cooling on a gaming laptop to the extent where heat really minimal , i aint touching one.
Wdym
@@iihamed711 I think he meant "until"
@@iihamed711 not many laptops are properly capable of cooling their own parts which causes thermal throttling, overheating and excess power being used
@@Deuteriumaddict but most gaming laptops are good with cooling now that almost none of them will thermal throttle unless you really push them.
there is the same exact laptop on walmart (exept its an i5 instead of an i7 and is 15.6 inches) and it only costs 550 before taxes
i got the dell g15 with the rtx 3060 and i7 11800h for just under 1000 this black friday

Can you do a next prebiult gaming pc
Can you please help me with buying a prebuilt pc from best buy. I've always played on a laptop and i wouldn't be comfortable or know where to start with building a pc. I need a good pc that has high and stable fps and cool temps. Can you please help me find something that's under 2k? Also i want to show you a prebuilt that i've been looking at and can you tell me if it's good or not
I’m not the biggest computer nerd but I seen this laptop and sale for like 800 so I’m considering to buy it(8gb ram version)
i have this and it is very fast and reliable and its really good for the price
i like how you dont really talk about the cons
better than the MSI GF65 with the GTX 3060 better for the same price point?
4GB of Vram for a 30 series GPU is kind of disgusting. Could've at least went with 5GB and called it good
I got the RTX 2060 model and the 6 GB vram is what I think is the " standard " these days
4 GB is fine but limits how good some games can look with good FPS
@DrixIsMyName yeah I'd prefer at least 6 GB vram
a few years ago I had a HP omen 17 with a 1050 ti in it and was fine but about 7 months after purchase I wanted to up the graphics setting more and got a MSI with a GTX 1070 ( upgraded to a new laptop this year ) and the improvements really showed
these " budget " models are fine but laptops I think spending more is better if you're able to
though they have their place if you set expectations right
Got the 3050Ti version of this, a 3060 is a ridiculous price in my country, I actually got bullied bc of my GPU, I doubted myself buying it and finding 2060 so bad, but it's really rare to find gaming laptops with 2060. Those bullies act like their elitists, glad I bought it as a good deal because it was the priced the same as 1650, you're right, they should've given it more VRAM, they shouldn't call it a 30 Series GPU if it lacks VRAM, although, I observed that the 3050Ti has similar performance to an RTX 3060 if VRAM isn't important. I'm just grateful to own something to game, but I don't mind if people call me "disgusting" for getting a GPU like this, I only play E-sport titles so that's good. But I'm still sad tho.

I enjoy my 10th gen i5 RTX 3060 15”.
I own the model with a i5 and RTX 2060 ( not going to complain too much with how much I paid and the bonus stuff I got ) however I have to point these " problems " out
the screen is a bit " dim " and is average at best ( needs improving Acer ) and the 8 GB ram just made me go out and buy another 8 GB stick
Aside from those 2 minor " problems " I think it's a fine laptop for the money
could be better but I paid $998 AUD and got a Logitech G512 keyboard and 3 games as a bonus too ( watch dogs legion and 2 other meh games ) but in the games I've played on it they run good
though I'd personally say save up a bit more for a better brand but for the money it's a good option
How is battery life?
