Amazing value laptop
I'll describe the cons about this laptop Cons: - No DLSS 3 or Frame Gen since its a 3070 Ti - No Advanced Optimus, MUX Switch requires a restart - Running Freesync Premium only works in Optimus, if you set it to Discrete GPU only you lose out on Freesync Premium with the display - Power Brick is bigger than competitors Pros: - QHD Display looks great - 165 Hz is very consistent with testing - High TDP GPU with 150w on the 3070 Ti - DDR5 RAM - Better build quality than previous generations of Acer Nitro's - Freesync Premium works but only with Optimus

Would be great if it worked, but it doesn't
I got this laptop on sale for 300 dollars off, which given the components is a steal. It worked fine for about two months, and then the screen started flashing and flickering (see picture), making it unusable. This is without and physical damage or dropping or hitting the laptop. After a decent amount of time updating drivers and fiddling with display settings I plugged it into an external monitor where it works fine. This indicates to me that it is the screen that came with the laptop. Two months after dropping 1K on a laptop is truly unacceptable, and I'm irritated with Acer and best buy's quality control.
