The main frame and the exterior are made of the combination of several materials like magnesium, aluminum, and plastic, fused together thanks to the so-called “Soft touch NIL” by Acer. But still, touching the exterior for the first time will probably make you think this is the usual plastic cover, but that’s not the case. The design of the chassis is actually more than it meets the eye. We sure hope the new generation offers the same quality as last year’s variants with GTX 860M.Ĭheck the current price of Acer Aspire V15 Nitro Black Edition here: Actually, this is almost new model but the good old chassis. We’ll put that new hardware to the test along with the new LCD IPS panel, which differs from last year’s model. With the release of the new GeForce gaming GPUs, Acer has renewed its Aspire Nitro Black Edition lineup not only with the new GTX 960M graphics card, but it also offers slightly more powerful CPU from Intel – Core i7-4720HQ. The Black Edition has a bigger DC charger (since it needs the extra juice given the hardware) and one extra fan for cooling.

That’s because Acer is offering two variants of the machine – one for normal day-to-day use and one especially for gamers. Actually, just by looking at this beauty, it’s hard to say if it’s just a normal notebook or a powerhouse with quad core high voltage Intel CPU and the latest release from NVIDIA – GeForce GTX 960M. Acer Aspire V15 Nitro Black Edition was arguably one of the best-selling gaming laptops and maybe the first serious step for Acer towards gaming-oriented notebooks.
