Not sure if it happens when my computer dies or what but almost every day i have to go back into acer quick access and turn coolboost back on so my computer doesn't hit 100c.  It's ridiculous how hot this thing gets even with a cooling pad.  So hot I can't even keep my fingers on the escape/1/2 keys.  SO hot in that corner.  I smell something burning sometimes.

    You try re-installing quick access, which might help. I suggest you to undervolt the CPU with Throttlestop or XTU, which will bring the temperatures down by not little.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 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.
