Acer Nitro 5 with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU now available in India

After launching the Aspire 7 in India, Acer has now launched its mid-range gaming laptop. The new Nitro 5 gets a slight bump from last year by adding the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 graphics card. The company claims that it is the first gaming laptop in India to rock the new GPU from NVIDIA. While that is true, considering it is already selling the product, ASUS recently also announced the TUF Dash F15 featuring the option of an RTX 3060 or RTX 3070, which will be going on sale later this month.
