Acer just announced a new gaming laptop featuring the latest internals from Intel and NVIDIA. The Acer Nitro V 15 pairs up to a 13th Gen Intel Core i7 CPU with up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 graphics. Those processors, along with up to 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 2TB PCIe SSD, should be able to handle many of the best PC games, though you’ll have to lower your settings on certain titles.

Acer’s Nitro V 15 features a FHD display with a refresh rate of up to 165Hz, though gamers in the United States will be capped at purchasing a version with a 144Hz screen. The gaming PC’s screen has a 3ms overdrive response time and an 82% screen-to-body ratio. Acer’s press materials appeared to have a mistake that states the Nitro V 15 has a 1020 x 1080 display. It’s much more likely the gaming laptop features a 1920 x 1080 screen.
