Acer's quiet Nitro 17 laptop reviewed: The RTX 4060, perfectly configured

[Redaktion]

The gaming laptop's i7-13700H and the RTX 4060 are perfectly suited to modern games. And, on top of that, the Nitro 17 hardly suffers from any weaknesses. So far, so predictable. The clever power management implementation makes all the difference and ensures Acer's laptop is quiet despite its power.

Given the terrible screen, noise, heat, poor performance and uselessness for games 2022-2023 in 2.5k, this device could not get 88%, maximum 78%. This is it place and overpriced at least 1.5 times.

How can one "play" on this shame, if in the native 2.5k mode there are not even miserable 50fps in modern games?! And a priori, you can't play in 1080p mode on 2.5k panels, because. there is always a muddy picture, because 2.5k>fhd cannot be produced by integer aggregation of pixels. This should be clear even to an idiot, but with a school diploma.

Terrible idiotic keyboard, inconvenient neither in games, nor even more so for work - a completely ruined numpad - again an idiotic Chinese scheme with an arrow to the right in place of insert for the sake of cheap cheap Chinese foolish savings on matches. Although there is plenty of space on the case for a full-fledged numpad with full width buttons, as well as a full-fledged Esc row, F1..F12 in height. A normal keyboard, at least like in Lenovo Legion, costs a penny against the background of the general price.

It's time to stop the practice of scoring "according to the authors" at NB and do everything formally on the absolute scale of the value of each component and the total rating, taking into account the weights in each class of laptops.

Lol, someone is totally unfamiliar with DLSS and FSR/RSR. 1080p to 1440p with FSR 1.0 is between Ultra and Quality presets.

• Here is 1080p RSR vs 1440p native: imgur.com/a/WzUT26L
• Video in depth: "Radeon Super Resolution vs Nvidia Image Scaling - Who Has Better Driver Upscaling?" ( youtu.be/IL3QQmwRsIw )

There is also plenty of examples where DLSS quality have more details than native 4K and native 1440p. Example here and I recommend to watch the vid to anyone who believes that "you can't play in 1080p mode on 2.5k panels, because. there is always a muddy picture, because 2.5k>fhd cannot be produced by integer aggregation of pixels.":
"Is DLSS Really "Better Than Native"? - 24 Game Comparison, DLSS 2 vs FSR 2 vs Native" ( youtu.be/O5B_dqi_Syc )

6:14 in the last vid:

"A lot of the issues we talked about here are also present at 1440p using the quality mode but the biggest difference I spotted compared to testing at 4K is that the native presentation is a lot softer here and less detailed. Both DLSS and FSR are actually capable of producing a sharper and more detailed image at times..."
