A: Not sure, but it's 60hz. that is the right answer.

Q: Can you add a second hard drive?

A: Yes, you can expand the memory as well. There is a popular YouTuber by the name of Meanpooh that has posted some in depth videos on this laptop from memory and hdd upgrades to removing the cooler and adding better thermal paste. Definitely check him out.

Q: I can put a 1tb HDD hard drive?

A: Yes, you can install a 2.5" hdd or SSHD in this Nitro 5 laptop.

Q: Why was it advertised as RGB backlit if it’s only red? i’ve waited a week for this laptop to come in because i wanted RGB. if i wanted red i could have just picked it up from best buy the next day.

A: zfloyd that is untrue. acer confirmed that it was a RGB backlit and the specifications said RGB when i ordered it. they changed it about 5 days after i had already ordered it.
