QUOTE(Kairyu @ Jun 28 2021, 05:07 PM) I unironically using an Acer Nitro 5 for gaming and working as a data engineer. Hasn't given me any trouble in the past three months of using it. The keys are tactile and the performance is solid. I love it.  It's definitely a good recommendation for Electrical/ electronic engineering but of course, have to check what's the recommended specs from your university as well. Then I can maybe share you some recommended laptop for you.  my nitro 5 constantly getting 100% CPU usage during gaming, have you encounter similar issue so far? |

QUOTE(MGM @ Jun 27 2021, 10:22 AM) Hi guys, I am thinking of getting the Acer Nitro 5 based on: 1. stock is available 2. dealer offered rm3999 for 8GB, and for the 16GB RAM model at additional rm200(cheap?). Come with backpack n wireless mouse 3. May be final 2 years get another unit n this unit will become family unit. 4. Good support from Acer's JB service centre near by. What I need to know is this Acer Nitro 5 a good unit in terms of speed, screen, battery, price? Most importantly, is it suitable for Electrical/electronic engineerig student? yes definitely no issue, may opt for 16gb RAM for more future proof |

However, if the mobo chipset is based on the older H470 if im not wrong, then the ram will be capped at 2933mhz. This happens to hp victus as well. I guess this is where the manufacturer cut in budget gaming laptops. |
