I finally upgraded my old but capable Lenovo Y500 gaming laptop with the 2020/2021 model Acer Nitro 5 AN515055 gaming laptop.
After adding an 8GB DDR4 3200Mhz RAM and a 1TB NVMe PCIe SSD drive, I am looking to use this bad boy for years to come. Here's a quick review and impression video of the laptop.
