Acer is well-known for its high-end Predator gaming laptops, but it also has an entry-level lineup dubbed Nitro as well. Since IGN typically only reviews expensive, herculean laptops we figured we’d add a bit of variety to our coverage with a review of the $900 Nitro 5 (See it on Amazon). It’s made for gamers on a budget, and features a pretty basic design but with enough gaming-specific features to satisfy most folks. Honestly, it’s mostly about setting your expectations correctly, because for a device that’s priced under $1,000, you can’t expect more than what the Nitro 5 has to offer.
