Acer Nitro 5 AN515-44 Laptop İnceleme: AMD, Nvidia ile flörtleşiyor
Acer'ın Nitro 5 yenilemesi iki temel konfigürasyonda mevcuttur: Intel Comet Lake işlemci ile donatılmış AN515-55 ve AMD Renoir işlemci içeren AN515-44. Biraz para kazanmak istiyorsanız Ryzen 5'i tercih edebilirsiniz 4600H. AMD'nin hexa çekirdeği, Intel'in Core i7-9750H'sine çok daha pahalı dizüstü bilgisayarların sahip olduğu kolayca takılabilir. Alternatif olarak, AN515-44, Bravo'da kaslarını çok uzun süre önce esneten aynı işlemci olan çok güçlü bir Ryzen 7 4800H ile satın alınabilir. İnceleme birimimiz ayrıca oldukça yeni bir üst orta menzilli GeForce GTX 1650 ile donatılmıştı. Ti GPU, 144 Hz ekran, 512 GB SSD ve 8 GB tek kanallı DDR4 RAM. Daha iyi performans nedenlerinden ötürü, çift kanallı bir konfigürasyon olmasını isterdik. Bu özel yapılandırmayı satın almak için, yazma sırasında yaklaşık 1.000 $ ile ayrılmak zorundaydınız.
Rakipleri, Dell G5 15 5590, HP Omen 15, Lenovo Legion Y540-15 ve Acer Predator Helios 300 gibi 15 inçlik diğer bütçe oyun dizüstü bilgisayarlarıdır. Buna göre, karşılaştırma grubumuz bu dört cihazdan oluşmaktadır.

Durum
Kasanın neredeyse tamamen plastik olmasına rağmen, yeni Nitro 5 oldukça premium görünüyor ve hissediyor. Özellikle kapak gerçek alüminyuma çarpıcı bir şekilde benziyor. Siyah yüzeylerin kırmızı vurgularla (klavye, dokunmatik yüzey, vb.) Kombinasyonu, çeşitli MSI dizüstü bilgisayarlarını hatırlatır ve sıkıcı ve eğlenceli arasında iyi bir denge kurar.Özellikle sağlam olmayan kapak haricinde iyi. Baz ünite ancak önemli miktarda kuvvet uygulandıktan sonra eğildi. Yapı kalitesi, rakipleriyle de eşit düzeyde ve dolayısıyla iyi bir seviyede idi. Çoğu kullanıcı için maksimum 150 derecelik açılma açısı yeterli olmalıdır.
Modern bir dizüstü bilgisayardan beklendiği gibi, Acer bazı rakiplerinde bulunanlardan biraz daha geniş çerçeveler de olsa dar seçti. Bununla birlikte, Nitro'nun 36,3 x 25,5 cm'lik (14,3 x 10 inç) kapladığı alanın, maksimum 2,4 cm'lik maksimum yüksekliği gibi 15 inçlik bir cihaz için oldukça kompakt olduğu ortaya çıktı. 2,2 kg'dan fazla olmayan orta ağırlığı sayesinde belirli bir dereceye kadar taşınabilir.
Bağlantı
PortConnectivity ve özellikle harici portlar, Acer'ın köşeleri kesmek zorunda kaldığı alanlardan biridir. Ne DisplayPort ne de kart okuyucu mevcut değildir ve Thunderbolt 3 de hiçbir yerde görülmemektedir. Sol tarafta bir Kensington kilidi, bir RJ45 bağlantı noktası, iki USB 3.0 Tip-A bağlantı noktası ve 3,5 mm kulaklık girişi bulunuyor. Bunlara tek bir USB 3.0 Tip-C bağlantı noktası, üçüncü bir USB 3.0 Tip-A bağlantı noktası ve harici ekranları sağ tarafa bağlamak için bir HDMI bağlantı noktası eşlik eder. Tüm bağlantı noktalarının bir fare kullanarak her iki tarafta oldukça ortalanmış olduğu göz önüne alındığında, takılan kabloların miktarına bağlı olarak oldukça zor ve zorlu hale gelebilir.
İletişim
Bütçe fiyatına rağmen, Nitro iletişim konusunda herhangi bir uzlaşma gerektirmez. Kablolu bağlantılar bir Killer E2600 Ethernet denetleyicisi tarafından gerçekleştirilirken, hem veri iletirken hem de alırken 1.300 Mb / s'den yüksek hızlı Wi-Fi aktarım hızları sunan Intel'in AX200 Wi-Fi 6 modemi sayesinde kablosuz protokol desteği çoktur. Son zamanlarda geliştirilen test kurulumumuz nedeniyle, bu sayılar eski test sonuçlarıyla karşılaştırılamaz. Kurulumumuzu geleceğe hazırlayabilmek için AC'den AX yönlendiricisine geçtik (Netgear Nighthawk AX12).

Web kamerası
Web kamerası, diğer oyun dizüstü bilgisayarlarındaki web kameraları kadar odak açısından kötü olmasa da, video kalitesi beklentilerinizi düşürmenizi ve çok fazla beklememenizi öneririz.
Aksesuarlar
Kutuda, genel bilgiler içeren birkaç broşür, boş 2,5 inç yuva için bir montaj çerçevesi ve hoş bir hafiflik (yaklaşık 340 g / 0,75 lbs) ve kompakt (yaklaşık 13,5 x 7 x 2,5 cm / 5,3 x) 2,75 x 1 inç) 135 W güç kaynağı.
Bakım
Bakım açıklığının olmaması nedeniyle, toplam 11 Philips vidasının çıkarılmasını gerektiren dahili donanıma erişmek için tüm alt kasanın çıkarılması gerekir. Çıkarıldıktan sonra bataryaya, kablosuz iletişim modülüne, iki DDR4 SO-DIMM yuvasına, iki M.2-2280 yuvasına ve bir 2,5 inç depolama yuvasına erişebilirsiniz. Lehimli CPU ve GPU için soğutma çözümü, çeşitli ısı boruları ile bağlanan iki fandan oluşur ve birbirinden tamamen izole değildir.
Garanti
Varsayılan garanti, satın alındığı ülkeye göre değişir. Örneğin, Alman inceleme birimimiz iki tam yıllık alımla birlikte gelir
Giriş cihazları
Keyboard
Based on the marketing material on Acer’s website some of the more expensive Nitro 5 models feature an RGB-backlit keyboard. However, the AN515-44 has to make do with a red backlight underneath Acer’s well-established gaming keyboard. It offers a well-defined touch and feel as well as a solid overall layout safe for the combined Insert/Delete key. Furthermore, the German keyboard layout fused the left Shift key with <>| as well as the Return key with #, which while uncommon and confusing at first did not cause any issues after some getting used to.
A very useful feature was the availability of brightness and volume control on the cursor keys, particularly for touch typists. You will need both hands to trigger these functions, though. Some users will also benefit from the dedicated numpad.
Dokunmatik
Kırmızı çerçeveli dokunmatik yüzeyin 10,5 x 7,5 cm (4,1 x 3 inç) kapladığı alanı 15 inçlik bir dizüstü bilgisayar için fazlasıyla yeterli. Pürüzsüz yüzeyi mükemmel kayma kabiliyeti sağlar ve hassasiyeti kabul edilebilir bir seviyedeydi. Beklendiği gibi, çeşitli hareketler desteklenir, örneğin zoom ile sıkıştırma veya iki parmakla kaydırma. Düğmeleri tetiklerken çıkardığı ses oldukça yüksek ve yumuşaktır ve özellikle genel klavye tıkanıklığının çok düşük olduğu düşünüldüğünde bazı ek ince ayarlar kullanmış olabilir.
Görüntüle
Geçmişte, 100 Hz'den daha büyük ekranlar çoğunlukla pahalı üst düzey dizüstü bilgisayarlarla sınırlıydı. Günümüzde, giderek daha fazla sayıda bütçe oyuncusu bu yüksek frekanslı panellerle donatılmıştır.

Acer, 15 inç Nitro 5'ini 1920x1080 Hz doğal çözünürlükte çalışan 144 Hz IPS panel ile donatıyor.
Genel görüntü kalitesi oldukça düşük. Loş bir arka ışığa (ortalama 270 nit) ek olarak, renk alanı kapsama alanını (% 61 sRGB) ve tepki sürelerinin eksik olduğunu gördük. Buna karşılık, 0,25 nit'lik siyah seviyesi ve 1,150: 1'lik kontrast oranı yeterliydi.
Pil ömrünü uzatmak ve fiyatı düşürmek için Acer, Nvidia'nın G-Sync'i tercih etti ve bunun yerine değiştirilebilir grafik teknolojisi Optimus'u seçti.

Test Koşulları
Aşağıdaki ekran görüntüsünde görülebileceği gibi, önceden yüklenmiş Nitro Sense aracı çok fazla ayar veya sekme sunmadı. İyi organize edilmiş bir kullanıcı arayüzü fan hızlarını ayarlamanıza, bir güç planı seçmenize ve CPU'nun yanı sıra GPU sıcaklıklarını, yükü ve fan hızlarını izlemenizi sağlar. Testlerimizi çalıştırdığımızda, otomatik fan hızı ayarlaması ve Acer'ın optimize edilmiş Dengeli güç planının seçilmesi ile ilgili tüm ayarları varsayılan olarak bıraktık.
Verim
Özel SKU'muz, hem fiyat hem de performans açısından oyun dizüstü bilgisayarlarının üst orta sınıf segmentinde bulunabilir. CPU'nun GPU'dan çok daha fazla performans boşluğu sunduğunu belirtmek gerekir, bu da zaman zaman daha zorlu oyunların bazılarında öne çıkmıştır. GPU'nun aksine RAM yükseltilebilir ve RAM'i 8 ila 16 GB çift kanallı RAM'den iki katına çıkarmanızı şiddetle öneririz.
İşlemci
İlk önce: AMD'nin Ryzen 5 4600H nefes kesen bir fiyat-performans oranı sunuyor. Altı çekirdekli CPU 7 nm litografi işleminde üretilir ve SMT sayesinde 12'ye kadar eşzamanlı dişi destekler.
Its clock speeds were pretty impressive overall. While it only achieved its maximum boost of 4.0 GHz under ideal conditions, an average of 3.7 GHz with load on all cores is more than respectable. The fact that performance dropped after a few runs is no exception but rather typical for a laptop.
When running our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 4600H practically wipes the floor with its Intel competitors. In CineBench R15 multi-thread it scored around 20% faster than a Core i7-9750H. Compared with the Core i5-9300H, a processor very popular with notebooks in the Nitro’s $1,000 range, it was between 70 and 80% faster thanks to its higher core count. Intel definitely has to take note of this.

System Performance
According to PCMark 10, our review unit scored somewhere between other devices equipped with a GTX 1650 Ti or GTX 1660 Ti, and an i5-9300H or i7-9750H. Subjectively, the 15-inch device felt very fast and snappy at all times, be it application launches, load times, boot times, or file transfers.
DPC Latencies
Unfortunately, the latencies observed were anything but good. According to LatencyMon you should expect potential difficulties with applications such as real-time audio. Fortunately, most users won’t notice any issues.

Storage Devices
In order to present the powerful CPU with a worthy storage device Acer opted for a PCIe SSD. Sequential transfer rates north of 1,000 MB/s in both read and write may not be the cream of the crop but still more than enough for everyday use. Our review unit was equipped with a 512 GB large SK Hynix BC511 SSD. If you need more storage space, you can either add a second M.2 SSD or use the included mounting bracket to add a traditional 2.5-inch hard disk drive.

GPU Performance
Truth be told we are somewhat disappointed by the GTX 1650 Ti despite its overall decent performance. Looking at the benchmark results reveals that the DirectX 12 GPU can only perform slightly better than a “regular” GTX 1650.

In order to determine sustained load capabilities, we ran The Witcher 3 on FHD/Ultra for at least 60 minutes. The resulting frame rate was consistent throughout the entire test, which hints at a properly sized cooler capable of keeping the GTX 1650 Ti in check. GPU clock speeds settled at more than 1,700 MHz, which is impressive considering the GPU’s base clock speed of no more than 1,350 MHz.

The Nitro 5 AN515-44 was developed with price-sensitive gamers in mind that might not necessarily insist on running every single game on the display’s native resolution of 1920x1080 on maximum details. Accordingly, recorded frame rates in less-demanding games such as FIFA 20 get very close to the display’s refresh rate while more-demanding, graphically intense, or poorly optimized games (we are looking at you, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Borderlands 3) tend to skip frames. Things quickly turn ugly when running at even higher resolutions, for example 2560x1440. Generally speaking, a GTX 1650 Ti is not suited for display resolutions higher than QHD.

Emissions
System Noise
Noise-sensitive users might have to look elsewhere. While the fans are either completely off or running at low speeds resulting in a fan noise of 32-34 dB(A) when the device is idle, they quickly rev up to 46-49 dB(A) under load and necessitate the use of a headset. Only the Dell G5 5590 was even louder.

Temperature
Temperatures recorded during our The Witcher 3 test indicate that the fans could easily be running slower than they are. CPU and GPU temperatures of around 60 °C each hint at quite a lot of thermal headroom. In our unrealistic stress test performed by running FurMark and Prime95 simultaneously we recorded temperatures of up to 71 °C for the GeForce GTX 1650 Ti and 85 °C for the Ryzen 5 4600H, both of which are also more than adequate for this load scenario.
The case peaked at 49 °C at the top and 50 °C at the bottom, which is fairly typical for a gaming laptop. Idle temperatures were very low, and the case did not exceed 30 °C.
(-) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 49 °C / 120 F, compared to the average of 40.5 °C / 105 F, ranging from 21.2 to 68.8 °C for the class Gaming.
(-) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 50 °C / 122 F, compared to the average of 43.2 °C / 110 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 25.9 °C / 79 F, compared to the device average of 33.9 °C / 93 F.
(±) Playing The Witcher 3, the average temperature for the upper side is 37.4 °C / 99 F, compared to the device average of 33.9 °C / 93 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are reaching skin temperature as a maximum (35 °C / 95 F) and are therefore not hot.
(-) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.9 °C / 84 F (-6.1 °C / -11 F).

Speakers
Sound was mediocre at best, and sound quality was pretty comparable overall to the Predator Helios 300, both of which showed a distinct lack of base. At least the Nitro 5 gets significantly louder (79 dB(A) vs. 69 dB(A)).

Energy Management
Power Consumption
Acer’s 15-inch Nitro 5 is living proof that modern gaming laptops can be powerful yet very energy efficient at the same time. Despite its hexa-core CPU, the Nitro 5 only consumed between 5 and 13 W when idle. Both of its 9750H-equipped competitors consumed two to three times as much energy. Under load, it required between 69 and 124 W of energy, which was also excellent.

Battery Life
Thanks to its combination of switchable graphics and low power consumption the Nitro 5 offers excellent battery life. Despite its comparatively small 57 Wh battery it managed more than 13 hours of runtime in our idle test at minimum display brightness, and close to 9 hours in our Wi-Fi test at medium brightness. The only device capable of keeping up in our comparison group was the Dell G5 5590.

Verdict
Price-conscious users take note: The Acer Nitro 5 AMD edition with Ryzen 5 4600H and GeForce GTX 1650 Ti is a true price-performance recommendation.
While the first RX 5500M and GTX 1660 Ti laptops start making their way into the $1,000 gaming laptop segment, which could potentially offer even better gaming performance, a comparable CPU performance would cost much more in an Intel-equipped device.
Disregarding some of the corners Acer had to cut, such as the dim display with poor color-space coverage or the device’s poor connectivity, the Nitro 5 AN515-44 is a very attractive and versatile budget device. Thanks to long battery life and a comparatively lightweight and compact case it can even be considered somewhat portable.
