Acer has released a new gaming laptop named Nitro 5 with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card and a 10th Gen Intel Core processor. The laptop has been priced at Rs 89,999 and is expected to give tough competition to the gaming series of other brands including Asus Rog, HP Omen, and MSI.
According to Sudhir Goel, Chief Business Officer, Acer India, “With the new Nitro 5 gaming laptop using the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card, we are entering a new era of high-performance gaming. Our Nitro 5 gaming laptop range has been a huge success in the Indian market and provides the perfect stepping stone to competitive e-sports. The close collaboration between Acer and NVIDIA has resulted in a laptop which has the performance, design, cooling and portability which is unmatched at this price point and we are excited to bring this to the Indian market”.
Here are some features of the Acer Nitro 5 that make it stand out among gaming laptops.
144Hz display
Fast-paced gaming requires a responsive display. If the display fails to render what the GPU is delivering, visual issues like ghosting and latency occur. To check these issues and enhance the gamers’ responses, the Acer Nitro 5 comes with an ultra-fast display. You get a full-HD (1080p) IPS panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time. This laptop will surely give you an edge over others during an online gaming match.

RTX 3060 GPU
Ray-tracing is a revolutionary technology in the field of gaming visuals. It is also the most GPU demanding process. The Acer Nitro 5 comes with a GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card built on the Ampere-NVIDIA’s 2nd generation RTX architecture. Now you will get outstanding visuals with enhanced Ray Tracing Cores and Tensor Cores.
Wi-Fi 6
Wi-Fi 6 is another revolutionary technology that will change the way we play multiplayer games. With minimal communication latency, WI-Fi 6 will begin a new era of multiplayer gaming in which an unimaginable number of players can join a deathmatch simultaneously. The Acer Nitro 5 is the futuristic gaming laptop that comes with WI-Fi 6.
256GB Solid State Drive
With the advancement of video games, hard drives are falling short in providing less loading time. Owing to their mechanical origin, their moving parts are not fast enough to load a heavy game. The Acer Nitro 5 offers 256GB SSD to fetch and feed a huge amount of data from the secondary storage to the RAM.

Price
Setting up a gaming console is not at all cheap when solely an RTX graphics card costs more than a workgroup laptop. At Rs 89,999, the Acer Nitro 5 is offering you what a high-end gaming PC would offer at twice the cost. Moreover, the RGB lit keyboard with 4-zone implementation and a dedicated NitroSense key make this laptop the most-awaited gaming laptop.
According to Vishal Dhupar, Managing Director, NVIDIA South Asia, “This next-gen laptop will increase energy efficiency by up to 2x, accelerate performance dramatically, and introduce third-generation Max-Q technologies for thin and lightweight designs. Along with this, the new series laptop promises to deliver stunning ray-traced gaming experiences in top game titles”.
