Excellent little gaming comp. I've had this machine for over a year and I game on it almost daily. I can run most my games ( mmo,s like Rift, SWTOR and others) on Max video settings. When I bought it the price was lower ( about 550.00). I upgraded to 32g gram bit there isn't a lot of storage so I'm going to upgrade that. I just came across a game that I have to run on all the lowest settings (Oblivion remastered) so I ordered an external card for that (8gb) and plug it into the thunderbolt slot, we shall see if that helps. Other than that one game this things been great. No issues, no overheating and no shutdowns. Beware of two things, If you crank up the fans they are loud and the sound speakers are terrible. But i use headphone so that point is mute for me. Good machine.

My 17yr son uses it for games, very good

Cumplió la mayoría de mis expectativas, la uso para la universidad, para editar video, para jugar y rinde de maravilla.Refrigeración 10/10, buenas temperaturas, incluye su software para elegir el modo de los ventiladores.La batería me ha llegado a durar 3 horas con ahorro de energía, bajo brillo y haciendo tareas sencillas.La cámara se ve lo suficientemente bien, no es la gran cosa pero tampoco necesito que sea un punto fuerte.Micrófono combinado con la reducción de ruido por IA se escucha muy bien para reuniones.Teclado muy bueno, suficiente recorrido y buen tacto, la retroiluminacion funciona bien con diferente intensidad, solo es rojo pero funciona.El i5-12500h, va de maravilla, nunca he logrado usarlo al 100%, no importa cuántas cosas este haciendo multitarea. Es una maravilla.La 3050ti, es una gráfica de la gen pasada pero rinde lo suficiente, en juegos AAA nuevos si va a 100% pero siempre arriba de 60fps en especial con tecnologías como dlss. Su límite creo que son los 4gb de vram.Recomiendo mucho la versión con 16gb ram, hoy en día son una necesidad.Los puertos son muy variados y son todo lo que necesito, varios USB 3.2, USB-c, HDMI 2.1, Puerto Ethernet, jack de auriculares.Los únicos contras que le ví son:1. El trackpad no es tan fluido, se te traba el dedo, he usado mejores en computadoras más baratas, pero en lo personal siempre la uso con un mouse aparte y casi nunca uso el trackpad pero cuando salgo y no llevo mouse si se nota que es un punto débil.2. El brillo de la pantalla, me parece poco. Obvio no es una computadora para exteriores, pero incluso en interiores, a veces siento necesitar más brillo. Fuera de eso la pantalla se ve muy bien.

Muy contento aunque hace mucho ruido, la actualice a 32gb de ram

I did a lot of research to find a 12th Gen Intel processor... Came across the Acer Nitro 15, described in 4 Models, across the 12th to 14th gen processors, and a choice of five video configs. I chose the 12th gen with the 3060Ti. I was sent a 13th gen with the 3060Ti. I'm crossing my fingers it is not affected by the Intel Meltdown Bug....Hence Why I Ordered 12th gen... The change to the die giving the 13th gen the speed boost has a voltage bug, it's well documented... The Die width of the 14th gen is smaller, yet shares the same voltage issue due to the architecture.I have to laugh at some of the reviews, People need to know what they buy, so Here is my experience after Using it as a main computer while on a three week vacation:Setup: Basic New OS install interface. Have a MS account, or it makes a new one for you, including an outlook e-mail.Registration with Acer: Good Luck! Links back to Acer are Broken in the script making the process lengthy and a real pain in the ..... I have been attempting it for 12 days and I still have no Idea if the product is registered, it error after error after error...Email reminder after Email reminder, get the idea?Battery: Goes for about an hour and a half gaming, and about 3 hours on Wi-Fi Browsing. You Purchased a High Power Processor!! You can NOT expect any type of battery life!! If you want a long Life battery, get a processor designate as U not an H. With this one, it is best to Use it plugged in! The Battery manager allows you to cap charging at 80%. That's a nice touch, since you will more than likely use the system docked a majority of the time due in part to the HIGH POWER Processor that is advertised and installed.Fans: in Auto Mode the fans are almost unheard when browsing or working with office software, streaming videos or picture editing. When gaming the fans can spin up to a noticeable Volume. In High mode, they are quite loud at full spin when they are punching 30kRPM keeping things cool. I have found that a few water bottle or soda caps under the back corners helps drastically with keeping your HIGH POWER PROCESSOR and Video card Cool.Sound: The Spatial sound is quite amazing. It's a full 360 degree surround. It made the gaming quite immersive when you muted the games background music. Ambient sounds were clear, Background movement was easily discernable. So I'm not sure why people are complaining....Pre-Installed Software: Norton AV Sucks!! Very First removal and replacement!!! MS Office 360/Edge are Gone Because they SUCK! Nitro Sense is Sweet, but annoying with all the notifications. Nitro Sense is a Must Use for this build. It has so many features and tweaks that are quite handy for tuning the laptop to what your current usage needs are. It also has an overlay to keep you totally informed on how your critical hardware is preforming. The standard Temp/Speed/Mem/Proc/Frame rate ect all on a small overlay. Which is Handy for video rendering and gaming.Touch Pad: The touch pad supports gestures and has a finger print reader and pressure point switching. It tracks well, a with a very fine resolution. It's extremely sensitive out of the box. Some adjustment may be required.Video: Colors are crisp and clear. I was pushing 128FPS on a mediocre internet connection. The screen didn't cause eye irritation or discomfort after multiple hours of constant use.Keyboard: Standard mini QWERTY with NUM pad and Directional arrow keys. It's back lit and silent. I like it, the Wife hates it and she made me add gaming KB/Mouse. ..Other Issues: Information on the build spec is limited if available at all. I know it has DDR5 RAM installed, however it is IMPOSSIBLE to know if it is One stick or two. so you have to crack the back and VOID the warranty by opening the case to find out! If your rendering or FPS Gaming it is a necessity to Max it. The secondary NVMe, PCIe slot is limited to Gen2 as the GEN3 slot contains the main drive.Over all, I'm happy with the purchase. I got a great price for a 12th gen laptop, and received a 13th gen, so hard to complain about an additional $150 savings. Just a bit nervous about the intel Meltdown Bug....

I’ve had this laptop for around a year (maybe more) and have yet to find a game I can’t run on it. Only modification I did to it was add a second ssd drive and maxed the ram to 32 gigs. My only con with this is that by giving you the ability to add a second internal drive they had to make room by giving you a smaller battery. My battery only lasts about 2.5 hours per charge, but I’m still giving this 5 stars.
