Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got this laptop as a last minute backup for my older dying gaming laptop. This laptop is just good enough for my hardcore multitasking... of 25+ tabs in Google Chrome, Discord, OBS, and either Krita/Autodesk Sketchbook (both art software) or Steam and a game at once- I stream both art and games on Twitch and record/edit videos for YouTube. My only complaints so far with this laptop is the low memory- But I have a 1TB portable hard drive so I was fine with this part. The RAM however is just 8 gb which I tend to use up to 80% of it according to my monitoring software. And lastly, the keyboard.. I love the keyboard has red text and how the light is red but the laptop was made to turn the backlight off around 20 seconds after the last keystroke and from what I have seen it cannot be changed to stay on longer.. Anyways, this laptop is holding up pretty well considering my past with Acer was never really any good but I would recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a decently priced gaming laptop, especially if they don't mind the low ram or won't overly multitask like me..

Great graphics, no lag and can have multiple sessions running without slowing down

The Acer nitro 5 is an excellent mid range gaming computer super fast ,,best for your $$$$$

I bought this for my daughter, for gaming. She was THRILLED at the speed. Her friends were slightly annoyed that now she is actually faster at gaming than they are. She can play Overwatch for the first time because it can handle the game lode. Minecraft is no longer lagging. It was very easy to start up and get going. She was playing within half an hour of taking it out of the box.

Awesome keyboard, easy to use and amazing graphics for a computer under $600!

Super fast computer! Love the SSD. I wish there was more storage space on it though.

Great value, specs we wanted. Does everything we need and more!

This is a great inexpensive laptop. It's fast, reliable, and not too heavy.

Economical and practical, this entry level gaming laptop has enough power out of the box to cover everything from basic tasks to processor heavy graphics and games. Keep in mind, this machine isn't built to compete with more robust configurations in it's class, and it can lag from time to time, but overall, its enough to get the job done and then some. After a month, I'm very happy with the value.

I bought this because my aging laptop was developing issues. For the price, this laptop works great. Battery life is a little light, but that that is expected when running a beefier video card. Wish the SSD was a little bigger also, but that would've jacked the price up. Can't beat the price though for what you get.

Extremely fast I think this is a great value if you need a cheap gaming pc.

Good laptop overall. Nice speed and performance. Would buy this again.

Great computer! Love how the keyboard lights up. Super fast! Great graphics!

I love the laptop, it’s quick, great graphics for gaming. Fast and reliable

Great laptop for the price. I've had it for a year and it runs great.

This laptop is fast and has great graphics. I love my new computer.

Lightning fast. Easy to use. Great graphics. Super excited about this laptop!

Bought this for my son and he loves it. Great speed and graphics.

Easy to use and great capacity for a lot of game-playing

Nice starting level gaming computer, my kids are very happy with it and overall quality. I am happy with the price, and it is clearly improvement for us compared to the old computer. I was looking for Lenovo gaming laptop initially but their website and customer support were not great so I decided to go with BestBuy and Accer. So, far we are very happy with this laptop.
