FAQ & Answers
Monitoring of temperature was made trought Acer Predator Sense 2.01
I was trying to get Acer Nitro Sense software trough official update channels - but it dont work because it is supported only for particular models and your OS instalation have to be OEM.
I found some predator sense software that works, on this forum.
Problem is next- when this model came to market, Nvidia drivers were able to manage fan control connected with this. Also, fan curve and some other things were different in previous version of nvidia software. You can't manage nothing trough your GPU software at this moment.
Also, i tried MSI Afterburner - software that allows you to create your own fan/temperature curve. But that also didn't work.
So, my advice is also to install a version of Predator Sense, or Nitro Sense if you can find version that is able to install. But it is pretty hard.
Here is one more proof after cleaning this.
Notice also - if software solution even worked - it would change nothing - because in my case - air flow was completly blocked. So, you have ensure all airways are clean and unblocked.
Also - don't play games in your bed, puting device on blankets etc. - I didnt but this still hapens.
So, finaly , advice is - clean your laptop first. Second part - if you can't do yourself - go to local store/mainetance and pay someone to do that for you.
I have done all these suggestions in this post with my an515-52, but i still got 99° C (CPU) , 70° C (GPU) when playing GTA V for an hour. Dont know what im going to do next, but i think it's just fine.
And sorry out of topic, i think started since 2017 Acer warranty is not void, if you broke the warranty seal. Try confirming this to Acer tech.
And last, please dont service your laptop in store you bought. Just put in nearest Acer Service Center.
Thx
I think that this is just because you have an Intel model. There is no way to hope that it could be cooled with this inflated TDP and what happens is the system runs it to thermal throttle limit by default all the time. So even if you have better cooling; it will just use more power.
You can also check your fans to make sure they are working. I re-pasted my Ryzen model and the max temp I ever see is 80C with most of the time it staying under 70C or in the 50-60c range.
PLEASE INFORM THE STANDARD TEMPERATURE RANGE OF "CPU" AND "GPU" FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE WORK

The video tutorial is also available,
There are two methods, the first one you might already know but it works. The second one is using the Ryzen controller.
