Helios 300. To update drivers or not?
I have read a few reviews of the Helios 300, suggesting that the video card drivers should be updated. My 300 is working perfectly, and I'm a big fan of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Is it recommended to update the video drivers for this Laptop? I'm not a techie, so I'm looking for guidance. Thanks.

Usually newer drivers perform better than the previous ones, but in many cases they have some bugs or are not optimised well. Here is a previous thread, stating that the graphics driver, from Acer's website works better than the newest driver:
If the version of your driver is the same as the one on Acer's driver page 'https://www.acer.com/ac/en/GB/content/drivers' leave it like that. If it isn't I suggest you to update it from there.
Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
-Model number
-Part number(not required, but helpful)
-CPU
-GPU-Operating systemHelios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.
