16-inch 180Hz WUXGA gaming laptop

The Acer Nitro 16S pairs a 16.0 inch 1920 x 1200 display running at 180Hz with an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 8-core processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU carrying 8GB of GDDR7 memory. It ships with 16GB of DDR5 4800 system memory and a 1TB PCIe SSD, running Windows 11 Home for immediate gaming and creative work.

Thermals and power in daily use

The chassis measures 14.05 x 0.83 x 10.85 inches and weighs 4.8 pounds, giving a compact footprint for a 16-inch machine. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth, a 3.5mm combo audio jack, HDMI 2.1 FRL, three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C with DisplayPort and power delivery, an RJ45 LAN port, and a Thunderbolt 4 port supporting DisplayPort, power delivery and G-SYNC at up to 40Gbps.

Behaviour under sustained load

The 8-core processor reaches a 5 GHz turbo frequency, feeding the RTX 5060 8GB GDDR7 graphics subsystem during extended sessions. The high-refresh 180Hz panel keeps motion sharp while the port array maintains external display and peripheral bandwidth through Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 FRL without throttling the internal PCIe storage or DDR5 memory subsystem.

Questions about this item

Will the 16GB of DDR5 4800 memory be enough for modern games, or do I need to upgrade it?

The laptop ships with 16GB of DDR5 4800 memory, which meets the recommended spec for most current titles at 1920 x 1200.

Can I connect an external monitor at high refresh rate over the USB-C or HDMI ports?

Yes, the HDMI 2.1 FRL port and the Thunderbolt 4 port both support external displays with high refresh rates at the panel's native 1920 x 1200 resolution.

Does the 1TB PCIe SSD leave a free slot for a second drive, or is it the only storage?

The specification lists a single 1TB PCIe SSD; the supplier opens the chassis for upgrades, so a second drive can be added if a compatible slot is available.
