Acer Nitro V 16, V 16S, Nitro 70 and 50 unveiled at IFA 2025

At IFA 2025, Acer unveiled four additions to its Nitro family: two laptops and two desktop PCs. The move signals a push to broaden the lineup’s appeal, giving gamers both portable rigs and full-size towers to choose from.

Both models feature the new Intel Core i9-270H processors paired with GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop graphics. The displays support 2560x1600 at 180 Hz. Cooling relies on two fans and four air ducts. The Nitro V 16 adopts a larger body up to 24.5 mm thick, while the Nitro V 16S goes with a metal design and weighs just 2.1 kg, staying under 20 mm. The split feels pragmatic: one favors a sturdier build, the other prioritizes a slimmer profile.

The Nitro 70 stands as the flagship, with support for Ryzen 9 9950X3D and GeForce RTX 5090. It comes with CycloneX 360 liquid cooling and a 1200 W power supply. The Nitro 50 is the more accessible option with a Ryzen 7 8700G and an RTX 5080, plus an 850 W PSU. Both machines use the same chassis and Acer’s CycloneX cooling system, which increases heat dissipation efficiency by 15%. The positioning looks deliberate: one tower chases maximum performance, the other keeps things approachable.

Conclusion

The new Nitro range underscores Acer’s bid to strengthen its position in the mid and high tiers of the gaming market. Nitro V focuses on mobility and balance, while Nitro 70 is aimed at maximum horsepower for the most demanding titles.
