RTX 5060 performance. Same slim chassis. The Acer Nitro V 16S (ANV16S-71-72G0) is the entry configuration of the Nitro V 16S slim gaming laptop — sharing the identical 13.9mm / 2.1kg chassis, 16-inch WQXGA 2560×1600 180Hz display, Thunderbolt 4, 76Wh battery, and dual SO-DIMM / dual M.2 upgrade slots as the RTX 5070 variant, with an Intel Core 7-240H and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 providing the GPU and CPU performance at a more accessible price.
Choose this model for Blackwell GPU architecture, DLSS 4, and the Nitro V 16S slim design at the entry price point. Choose the ANV16S-71-99T7 (Core 9-270H + RTX 5070) for more CPU cores and higher GPU performance at 1600p native resolution.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 is the Blackwell-generation mid-range GPU — the RTX 50 Series entry point that still supports DLSS 4 with Multi Frame Generation, fourth-generation RT Cores for ray tracing, and 798 AI TOPS from the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. In LaptopMedia's benchmarks of the RTX 5060 in the Nitro V 16, the GPU achieved 162 FPS in Counter-Strike 2 at 1200p Very High settings — smooth enough to take full advantage of the 180Hz display in competitive titles — and 86 FPS in Black Myth: Wukong at 1200p High settings. Compared to the RTX 4060 from the previous generation, the RTX 5060 delivers DLSS 4 Multi Frame Generation that the RTX 4060 does not support, providing meaningfully higher effective framerates in DLSS 4-enabled games even where raw GPU performance is comparable.
The Intel Core 7-240H is a 10-core (6 Performance + 4 Efficient), 16-thread processor with a 5.2GHz single-core boost on the P-cores and 24MB L3 cache. Notebookcheck confirms it as a Raptor Lake-H Refresh chip with performance comparable to and slightly ahead of the Core i7-13620H in single-core workloads, and with DDR5-5600 support for improved memory bandwidth. Intel Thread Director allocates workloads between P-cores and E-cores in real time for gaming, streaming, and productivity.
The 16-inch WQXGA 2560×1600 display at 180Hz and 16:10 aspect ratio is the shared visual specification across the entire Nitro V 16S range — the same screen as the RTX 5070 model. At native 1600p, the RTX 5060 benefits from DLSS 4 Super Resolution for performance recovery in demanding titles, and delivers native-resolution performance in competitive and less-demanding games without upscaling.
At 13.9mm and 2.1kg, the Nitro V 16S is meaningfully slimmer than the standard Nitro V 16 (16.1mm). The quad-intake cooling architecture that LaptopMedia praised for keeping the RTX 5070 cool in the thicker model carries into the slim chassis for the RTX 5060's lower thermal output. 16GB DDR5 (2 SO-DIMM slots), 1TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD (2 M.2 slots), Wi-Fi 6, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1, USB-A × 2, Ethernet, and an Arabic–English backlit keyboard.
