Chassis, connections, screen of the Acer Nitro V 15 ANV15-51-78LA

This angular black laptop with patterns on the shell has a relatively elegant and original look.

The connectivity integrated into this multimedia gaming laptop PC is good, consisting of 1 USB-C Thunderbolt 4, Ethernet and audio ports, Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6 ax wireless modules for communicating and connecting remotely, a practical HDMI video output to easily connect it to a TV or monitor for example or even 3 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) ensuring transfers are carried out up to 5 times faster only USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged into it.

Unusual functionality for a gaming laptop: a fingerprint reader is integrated. You can therefore authenticate biometrically using Windows Hello.

The chiclet keyboard is equipped with a backlighting solution. You can activate it whenever you need to better discern your keys.

Players will be delighted with the frequency of 165Hz, which is higher than the standard 60Hz because it provides much better fluidity in games and more generally in everyday life.
The Full HD screen, which lends itself well to displaying videos due to its 16:9 format, benefits from significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles thanks to its IPS technology, while its colorimetry is more faithful than average.
The screen also has an anti-reflective coating making it more readable than a shiny panel in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors).

Performance, autonomy of the Acer Nitro V 15 ANV15-51-78LA

The Acer Nitro V 15 ANV15-51-78LA may be of interest to those who wish to equip themselves with a versatile 15-inch computer that performs well in gaming and creation.

You can install and store multiple games, software, personal creations and more generally files on the large capacity of 1000 GB provided by the SSD storage.

Remember that an SSD is silent, energy efficient, shock resistant and fast.
Its high velocity has the effect of clearly reinforcing responsiveness and fluidity on a daily basis.
So thanks to the SSD we can quickly access the online game cards and launch games/software, carry out processing and start/stop quickly.

Precisely the heart of this creative gaming laptop PC lends itself well to multimedia processing since it is powered by a Core i7-13620H Intel Raptor Lake processor with 10 hybrid cores supported by 16 GB of RAM.

However, the Core i7-13620H provides much faster processing than a classic Quad/Hexa Core for work that requires CPU (and RAM) resources taking advantage of multi-core, such as video editing, 3D rendering or photo editing.

In any case, these components provide good overall power which will delight creative people in particular.
Especially since it is associated with a dedicated GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card which accelerates multimedia processing under software using GPU computing power, such as the Adobe suite, Vegas or VSDC.

Equipped with the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture, the GeForce RTX 4050 ray tracing is capable of running recent games. It will therefore also be of interest to players who will, however, have to make some concessions under the most 3D resource-intensive titles to obtain good playability.

NVIDIA Optimus technology automatically activates/deactivates the GeForce RTX 4060 in real time depending on the tasks performed, preferring the Iris Xe as much as possible. However, the performance of this graphics solution housed in the Core i7 is much lower. But it offers the advantage of consuming little energy, which promotes autonomy.
This is not the strong point since it is around 4 hours on battery in light use.

Optimus therefore uses the GeForce RTX 4060 when it comes to carrying out graphics work deemed too heavy for the Iris Xe, typically for gaming.

Finally, this versatile multimedia gaming laptop PC heats up and makes itself heard when pushed hard (e.g. games, treatments).
To contain its temperatures, a ventilated support can be added (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
