oh ok, i am not aware of that. anyway, just wanted to help.

my unit is sf314-42 r6y1 and it has one 3.2 gen 2 type-c port i found a site with specs of your target unit. https://www.cnet.com/products/acer-swift-3-sf314-42-r7lh-14-ryzen-5-4500u-8-gb-ram-256-gb-ssd-us-international/

i have an acer siwft 3 sf314-42. the settings can be found in the BIOS settings ( i supposed you guys know how to enter bios). in the MAIN tab, you can replace the value of "KEYBOARD BACKLIGHT TIMEOUT" feature to "DISABLED" (default is "ENABLED). Keep safe everyone!

sorry man, but i see no gain in doing what you want.

Up! ......

Update, since i cant stop my curiosity😁, i changed my dedicated vram from 512mb to 1024mb. My FPS changed a bit, about 5-10 fps increase. No system crashes, no overheating for 2 days of testing. I think all is well for now. I'll update this post after a week.

Thank you. Ü

Hi, I saw the tutorial on youtube using the same model that i have. However,im hesitant since i dont know if it can harm my laptop. I followed the steps and saw that i can change the vram dedicated memory from 512mb to 1gb/2gb/3gb up to 16gb (maybe for models with higher RAM installed), I exited the BIOS without saving…

I watched a video recommending to set the limit at 80percent charge and keep it plugged in to extend the battery life of lithium ion batteries (even if it is already at 80%, I have been practicing this method for about 4 days now ang the cycle of charging only added 1 from 51-52. one cycle is charging the battery from 1%…
