This laptop is very nice, I've had it for a while now and have had only 1 problem with it. -When you plug it in it cannot be booting up or running a program or that program will freeze or lag, or the boot process errors out and has to restart. But over all it works amazing I use it for path of exile, leauge, old diablo games, etc. and I can do full screens of mobs and effects and it is clear and crisp picture. - When running in gaming mode with it plugged in the fan is loud but you get use to it pretty quickly. - the sound on this is average the music can go to a decent level but it is a laptop after all so if you want boombastic sound I recommend headphones. - the battery life on this is great if your using for school or typing word documents the battery lasts for hours(5+) without plugging it in. Once you start using large high quality videos or games the battery does only last like 1-2 hrs depending what setting you have it on. -honestly everything else is great about the laptop I have no complaints besides the plug in thing I mentioned earlier. Great buy in my opinion and would buy again if I needed another one.

At first the performance was good and no overheating issues. But as the more you use it, it begins to overheat and fans running fast even only do simple browsing tasks. It's not rare for the system to hang or freeze and cannot handle intensive task such as photoshop or video editing. The build quality and design is poor, screen often wobbles really bad. Defective keyboard backlit, the bottom row of the keyboard didn't light up, only the top rows that lit up, mode switching sometimes stuck and cannot be changed. I predict this laptop will barely made throughout the year. With A$2400 dollars, you could get an RTX4070 and i7 14th HX processor which is way more powerful than this one.

My first time owning a laptop; I’ve used a PC for years. I can easily tell that this laptop is a great bang for your buck. The 165hz with 3ms on a monitor is something no gamer should be without, it changes your game and will make you unstoppable. This laptop definitely delivers this. With QHD your game will change forever. The RTX 4060 is a major asset to any gamer that wants to utilize the high refresh rate monitors with a game that delivers high detail games. Only downside as with most other laptops but so far I’ve ran into no excessive heat, however the fans are very loud. The CPU in this laptop isn’t quite bare minimal; it’s more than enough to not bottleneck your PC specs from the CPU alone but running too many programs will make the CPU get a little hot thus the laptop gets much louder. To be honest, my old real beef with this beast is the 16gb ram it comes with. It’s really the only problem I run into. If I want to run a high memory game and an internet browser then that is really not possible without overloading your ram. I’m sure you can replace the ram, just check warranty information and make sure you find a way that doesn’t void your warranty. This laptop is also very heavy, which is to be expected from how heavy GPU’s are becoming these days.

The Nitro A17, with the Ryzen 7840 and the RTX 4060, is a great laptop, with tons of ports 3x USB A two of which are gen 3, 2x USB C gen 4 on the back, HDMI, and a micro SD card slot. It plays any game I can find at full no problem. It has loud fans when gaming and in turbo as you should expect. Though in quiet mode it is very quiet. You can use the HDMI to play shows and you will not hear it. The battery life varies widely depending on usage. I get between 3 and 5 hours. Though if I was using heavy gaming I would expect only 2 hours. My only complaints so far after a few weeks of use is the seeming lack of USB C charging. The documents say one of the c ports is power in though the cable I hooked up seems not to work. And it is a USB C charger for a laptop. Second is the keyboard and touch pad,the touch pad is big and as such is easily hit while typing. Causing issues and the placement of the keys on the right side of the keyboard is not for me. I hit the wrong key so many times I bought a wireless keyboard mouse combo. All in all I for the cost I could not have gotten a better deal on it. And it provides me all the power I can use and more.

I am a power user, have to have the best setup with the latest hardware, yup, I'm that annoying guy. When it came to getting a gaming laptop however I didn't want to spend the bank so I tried the streaming route, it's nearly there, maybe in 5 years it'll be perfect but it's still too fussy, so back to shopping... I came across this laptop and the price was right and the 4060 is one of the rare cases where the laptop and the PC versions are the same so I gave it a shot. Very surprised on performance, the 1080p screen is great. Build quality my only gripe is the case is plastic so it's It's now 5.5 months later and the laptop is dead, no chargly went and bought 32gb and swapped out the 16gb, however... It's now 5.5 months later and the laptop is dead, no charge, no power, nothing. I tried all the remove battery and try reset plus removing ram sticks and reinserting, nothing. I contacted Acer and they said it's out of warranty, really? Hasn't been 6 months and I've only used it sparingly for a few games. Took it to Micro Center and they found the warranty, apparently the laptop was so dead that I was issued a full refund credit towards a new laptop, amazing. So happy ending after all.
