16-inch WUXGA 180Hz gaming laptop

The Acer Nitro 16S is a 16-inch Windows 11 Pro gaming laptop built around an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 8-core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 laptop GPU with 8 GB GDDR7 video memory. It ships with 32 GB DDR5 4800 memory and a 1 TB PCIe SSD. The non-touch display runs at 1920 x 1200 resolution with a 180 Hz refresh rate.

Ports and connectivity for peripherals and displays

A Thunderbolt 4 port supports DisplayPort, power delivery and G-SYNC at up to 40 Gbps. Three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port with DisplayPort and power delivery each reach 10 Gbps. An HDMI 2.1 FRL output, a 3.5 mm combo audio jack and an RJ45 LAN port round out the physical I/O. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth handle wireless links.

Sustained load behaviour and thermals

The 8-core processor reaches a 5 GHz turbo frequency while the RTX 5060 GPU and 32 GB DDR5 memory share thermal headroom inside a chassis measuring 14.05 by 10.85 by 0.83 inches and weighing 4.8 pounds. The high-refresh panel and fast PCIe storage keep frame pacing steady during extended sessions. The 180 Hz display and quick storage reduce frame-time variance when the system runs at peak clocks for long periods.

Questions about this item

Will the 180 Hz WUXGA panel and RTX 5060 stay cool during long gaming sessions?

The chassis measures 14.05 x 10.85 x 0.83 inches and weighs 4.8 pounds, leaving limited space for airflow; sustained loads will push fan speeds up to keep the 8-core Ryzen AI 7 350 and RTX 5060 within thermal limits.

What is the total power draw when the CPU hits 5 GHz and the GPU runs full tilt?

The 180 W adapter feeds both the 8-core processor at 5 GHz turbo and the RTX 5060 8 GB GDDR7, so combined draw approaches the brick's rating under heavy gaming.

Which cables and peripherals do I need on day one to use the Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 ports?

Bring a Thunderbolt 4 certified cable for 40 Gbps DisplayPort or power delivery, an HDMI 2.1 FRL cable for high-refresh external displays, and USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A or Type-C devices for the 10 Gbps ports.
