QuestionCan I play Skyrim on this laptop?.
Asked 2 years ago by Crusoe.
- Answer Considering the RECOMMENDED requirements are: OS: Windows 7/8.1/10 (64-bit Version) Processor: Intel i5-2400/AMD FX-8320 Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB /AMD R9 290 4GB Storage: 12 GB available space I would say this Nitro 5 Gaming Laptop by Acer should easily run it (with mods included) with it's: Intel i5 12500H (10 generations of cpu higher) 16 GB of RAM (Double the Recommended) and an Nvidia RTX 1050TI 4 GB which is more than the listed GTX 780 3GB and on par (but faster) than the AMD video card. Should run buttery smooth imho.

QuestionCould I always upgrade storage later on if needed?
Asked 2 years ago by Cassidy.
- Answer Yes, once you unscrew the screws on the bottom and pop off the bottom frame, you'll discover the 2 NVME slots (1 will be populated with your storage drive) so you can either upgrade the main one with a larger and faster drive or just simply add an additional drive to the empty slot. It is very simple to do and there are YouTube videos showing the breakdown for anyone nervous about it.

- Answer Download Windows PowerToys from the Microsoft Store. Open the keyboard manager and go into the remapping section. Remap the "N" key to disable. This will only stay active when PowerToys is active in the system tray.
