Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-79TD Gaming Laptop | Intel Core i7-11800H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU | 15.6 FHD 144Hz IPS Display | 8GB DDR4 | 512GB NVMe SSD | Killer Wi-Fi 6 | Backlit Keyboard

Almost everything about it was flawless but i came across a problem. So the laptop i got would get a black screen very briefly and come back on (only when surfing the web or media) but in gaming its all good so thats a relief, i also realized the GPU would spike constantly when idle or when in use

I am Game Artist. I use 3D modeling and game engine programs like Unity, 3DsMax, Blender, Photoshop, and Unreal. I also play plenty of MMORGs and Steam games in my (very little) free-time. And I really needed a new work/personal gaming laptop as my last Acer Predator was starting to degrade after several years of constant use. So I decided to try the Nitro since I really liked the Predator and have an Acer monitor as well.

I really shopped around for a laptop I could use for video editing and graphic design. The Acer Nitro 5 AN517-54-79L1 had decent reviews and it seemed like the best option in my price range. Well, the first one I ordered had problems so I had to send it back, then the replacement Amazon sent had the exact same problems so I had to send that back too!

I was really excited to try this laptop

bluetooth does not work on this model with windows 11, it does not let you play sound through anything but the speakers. it tells you it is connected to the bluetooth for voice and music but automatically mutes the music and will not unmute unless you go back to speakers, or it just crashes if you keep trying to unmute. it does not let you uninstall drivers or remove devices, they just reappear when you restart, and eventually it will crash and shut down if you keep trying to get it to use the bluetooth for audio output. this is apparently a problem with Windows 11 and bluetooth that has no solution. so if you really want to play music or whatever with your computer, stay away from Windows 11 computers until they fix this problem. apparently it has existed for many months already though.

I got a 15 inch screen not 17

Just make sure it is plugged in all the way. I added a 1 Tb HDD to the laptop without any problems, comes with the required data cable. I salvaged a 2.5 HDD from my old laptop. You can keep on the red keyboard lights using the nitro sense program. Boots in 11 seconds. The battery life could be better but it is a 17.3 screen and a gaming PC.

La máquina corre bien los juegos, pero se calienta muy rápido y todo el tiempo debe permanecer conectada. Fuera de eso no tiene ningún problema

It actually only has 4 gigabytes of vram not 6 like advertised. You can find a deal for better graphics card for just slightly more than this laptop.

Battery does not charge. Support was unhelpful.
