Acer is launching a trio of new Windows 11 laptops including the Acer Nitro 5 for gamers.

The company will launch two models of the Nitro 5, including the AN515-57 and AN515-54 to bring the latest tech to gamers along with Microsoft’s latest operating system. The machines are aimed at balancing power, stylish design, and affordable prices. We’ll see if the addition of Windows 11, Microsoft’s Windows 10 debuted in 2015, drives a new upgrade cycle for PCs and gaming rigs.
