A:AnswerThe supported memory for this Nitro 5 is DDR4 2666 SO-DIMM, up to 32GB using two memory slots. This ships with one 8GB stick and you can match the specs and add a second 8GB stick if you need more memory.
A:AnswerI can run Wow Classic at a graphics quality of 10 at about 60 fps. In retail wow I have to put it on 7 to get about 60fps but it will run both just fine.
A:AnswerThis laptop is will be able to run sims 4 I actually own the laptop but the only bad the about this laptop is it’s small in storage so I’d get a flash drive
A:Answer1. This specific model has 1 USB 2.0 port, 2 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and 1 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port. Aside from USB, it has a HDMI port. You should get about 5 Gbps from the USB ports.
2. It will work, just keep in mind it's aimed at gamers. As a result, there will be highlights on WASD and software targeted at gamers. Of course, you could replace the keycaps and just not use the gaming software, so it doesn't really matter. The low cost makes it a great choice. Keep in mind there is another model with a 1TB hard drive (linked). The CPU is slightly slower, but the laptop is slightly larger and has Acer ComfyView (anti-glare.) If you don't plan to game, the extra storage would be great, just keep in mind a HDD will be noticeably slower, and the 70$ sale does not apply.
tl;dr: Yes, but there is another model to consider.
A:AnswerGot this laptop for my son a few weeks ago and it did include a cable and mounting screws for adding a hard drive. They’re in separate little baggies though, and easily overlooked if you’re not careful when unpacking the laptop. No bracket, but those are easy enough to get, assuming the new drive doesn’t come with one.
A:AnswerThe laptop supports up to 32GB memory. The laptop includes a hdd cable and bracket to install a 2.5" SATA or SSHD. Instructions are on YouTube and you can also post questions on the Acer Community at https://community.acer.com/.
A:AnswerThe M.2 slots support PCIe and SATA3. While we cannot guarantee all M.2 SSD's will work, most that are available today should work fine. If you feel there is a hardware problem with the SATA3 SSD slot, please contact Acer support for assistance at 866-695-2237, which is available 24/7 for in-warranty products.
A:AnswerThe Nitro 5 with the Ryzen 5 4600H actually comes with 8GB DDR4 3200MHz. Make sure to look at the Acer forums for user experiences. Most users report using 3200MHz slots and work just fine while some people report lower speeds as low as 2666MHz. Both slots can be upgraded up to 16GB so no worries if you want to upgrade to 16GB.
A:AnswerAdding a second RAM module could help your experience. Also to ensure your game is running in High Performance, go to your AMD Radeon control center select SYSTEM/SWITCHABLE GRAPHICS/RUNNING APPLICATIONS/INSTALLED PROFILED APPLICATIONS/BROWSE then navigate to your games .exe launch file, select it and it will then show in installed application, then click the application and select high performance.
