My aunt payed 300$ for a Chromebook, and the lady pulled out a acer. When I opened it I thought: "hey this is a heavy Chromebook" pulled it out and uncovered it to see a whole acer nitro 5 with a rtx 3050 i5 12th gen 512gb of SSD storage and 8 GB of ddr5

cool
“very gaming” rip doge (kabosu)
It’s a shitty kind of gaming laptop, but way better than a Chromebook
A few years ago I did my research before buying an Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop. Despite there being many youtube videos at the time about getting hot and shutting down I still purchased one. Straight out of the box I ran an extensive stress test and sure enough it did what I had previously found out. I will suggest you stress the laptop enough to make sure it will last you in the long run and remember to always clean the fan and heat sink at least a couple of times a year (heat is the major killer of laptops GPU and VRAM). Enjoy your new laptop and congrats on the savings you luckily had.
Nice! Sounds like you owe your aunt a Chromebook.
Me: Auntie, I’ll fix this.
<Buys her a new Chromebook and keeps the Acer> Win-win.
Walmart has scammed lots of people, enjoy.
Ah good old acer nitro… I had 3, one with a 1650 that died without reason, one day I turned it off and the next day didn’t want to turn on, the store changed it for another and like a month after the laptop would shut itself off (no overheating, no nothing, even idle would do it) So they changed it again for a AMD variant and it died again… I was even embarrassed to go again to the store, the manager told me “don’t worry we have had problems with this model, can I change it for another laptop instead?” At the end I walked out with a desktop PC for gaming and a samsung galaxy tab S8 ultra to take it to school and work. No more “gaming laptops” for me, they are underpower, expensive as compared to a desktop equivalent and not that upgradable.. I learned my lesson…
But if I had a new one technically for free I would still be happy hahahahaha
