Acer has introduced the Nitro V 16, a new budget gaming laptop that pairs an Core 5 processor with an RTX 5050 graphics card. This combination targets students and casual gamers who need solid 1080p performance without spending over a thousand dollars. The model carries the specific identifier ANV16-I31-54PT and lists for 1199.99 USD (around $1,200) on Amazon.

Intel Core 5 210H and 165Hz screen target budget gamers

The system relies on Intel's Core 5 210H, an eight-core, 16-thread Raptor Lake-H processor with boost clocks of up to 4.8 GHz and a 45 W base power rating. Nvidia supplies the graphics via the 5050 laptop GPU configured with up to 95 W of graphics power. This CPU configuration allows the machine to handle modern titles while maintaining a manageable thermal profile for a thin chassis.

Specifications

  • CPU: Intel Core 5 210H (8-core, 16-thread, Raptor Lake-H, up to 4.8 GHz boost, 45W)
  • GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 5050 (95W TGP)
  • Display: 16-inch IPS, 1920×1200, 165Hz
  • Memory: 8 GB DDR5
  • Storage: 512 GB PCIe 4.0 SSD

Acer equips the Nitro V 16 with a 16-inch IPS display that offers a 1,920 x 1,200 resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate. The machine includes 8 GB of DDR5 memory and a 512 GB PCIe 4.0 SSD for storage. Power comes from a 76 Wh battery, which provides a baseline for mobile gaming sessions away from the outlet.

Notebookcheck testing indicates that the Core 5 210H outperforms the Ryzen AI 5 330 by roughly 50 percent in benchmarks, though it tends to consume more power. We've been tracking Nitro V 16 closely — see our earlier coverage on Acer Nitro V 16 AI Laptop for context on the broader lineup. The base model sits at the lower end of the Nitro V 16 pricing spectrum compared to higher-tier RTX 5070 variants.

The Nitro V 16 ANV16-I31-54PT is currently listed on Amazon but is marked as temporarily out of stock. Buyers interested in this specific Intel and Nvidia configuration will need to wait for inventory to replenish before they can place an order.
