Acer Nitro V 16S gaming laptop Ryzen 7 260 RTX 5060 16GB 512GB 16" 180Hz

16-inch WUXGA 180Hz gaming laptop

The Acer Nitro V 16S pairs an 8-core Ryzen 7 260 processor with an RTX 5060 8GB GDDR7 graphics card. A 16.0" 1920 x 1200 IPS panel running at 180Hz handles fast motion cleanly. The system ships with 16GB DDR5 4800 memory and a 512GB PCIe SSD. Windows 11 Home is pre-installed. The black chassis measures 14.08 x 10.39 x 0.79 inches and weighs 4.6 pounds.

Ports and connectivity check

The laptop is ready to use out of the box with no internal assembly required. The seal is opened by engineers only for any configured upgrades before dispatch. Connectivity includes 3 x USB-A 3.2, 1 x USB-C 3.2, HDMI, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, and a MicroSD card reader. Wireless uses Killer AX1650i Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth. A 4-zone RGB backlit keyboard and webcam are built in. There is no fingerprint reader.

Power and display expectations

Verify that the 180Hz refresh rate and WUXGA resolution match the external monitors you plan to drive via HDMI. Confirm the 512GB SSD capacity suits your game library before ordering, as the unit ships with this size. The 16GB DDR5 4800 memory is soldered or limited to one slot in many 16-inch designs, so future expansion may be restricted. The 4.6-pound weight and 0.79-inch profile affect bag choice and desk space.
