16-inch 180 Hz gaming laptop

The Acer Nitro V 16S AI ships with a 16.0-inch WQXGA panel running at 1920 x 1200 and a 180 Hz refresh rate. An AMD Ryzen 260 eight-core processor operates at a 3.8 GHz base clock and can boost to 5.1 GHz. The system includes 32 GB of DDR5 5600 memory and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 GPU with GDDR7 video memory. Windows 11 Home is pre-installed.

Connectivity and expansion

Wireless networking uses 802.11ax and Bluetooth 5.3 for peripherals. Physical ports comprise one USB-C, three USB-A and one HDMI 2.1 output for external displays. A bundled 7-in-1 docking station adds a 1 TB SSD, a 32 GB microSD card with adapter, a USB-C data cable, a 3-in-1 charging cable and a suede cleaning cloth. The laptop’s own 1 TB SSD remains available for the operating system and active projects.

Sustained-load behaviour

The eight-core Ryzen 260 maintains its 3.8 GHz base frequency across extended sessions while the RTX 5060’s GDDR7 frame buffer feeds the GPU without throttling. DDR5 5600 system memory keeps data moving to both compute engines during long rendering or gaming workloads. The 180 Hz panel continues to deliver smooth motion without frame-time spikes when the hardware is pushed continuously.

Questions about this item

Does the AMD Ryzen 260 throttle at its 5.1 GHz boost clock during long gaming sessions?

The Ryzen 260 has an 8-core design with a 3.8 GHz base clock and 5.1 GHz max boost. Sustained loads will hit thermal limits before the silicon limit, so expect clocks to settle below the peak boost after several minutes.

How loud are the fans and what is the surface temperature when the RTX 5060 runs at full load for hours?

The RTX 5060 with 8 GB GDDR7 and the Ryzen 260 share a compact 16-inch chassis. Under continuous load the fans spin up audibly and the keyboard deck grows warm, though the 4-zone RGB backlight remains usable.

Which cables and ports do I need on my monitors and peripherals to use the included 7-in-1 dock with its 1 TB SSD?

The dock connects via the laptop's single USB-C port and adds HDMI 2.1, extra USB-A ports and the 1 TB SSD. You need an HDMI 2.1 cable for high-refresh displays and standard USB-A cables for mice or drives.
