the ultimate solution to acer nitro 5 heating problem - AN515-45

Buhidma

first of all let me show you my temperatures using these steps. the ultimate solution to acer nitro 5 heating problem (no undervolting or decreasing performance)

idle at 30c / gaming 60c.

Model:

AN515-45

step 1: update windows and drivers.
step 2: repaste cpu/gpu. i used grizzly thermal kryonaut.
step 3: installed four vacuum coolers one at each vent.
step 4: installed eight 8cm 12v dc fans right underneath the intake in rectangular shape (stacked for more pressure penetrations).
step 5: use the ac to cool down the ambient temperature.
note: the vacuum coolers and the dc fans are not connected to the laptop. i used external power supply (12v 5A).

i know its not the most convenient solution but at least like this i can play while im sure my laptop is not burning up inside.
it could be better..for example you can use better vacuum coolers, better dc fans, use Peltier module system under the dc fans.

hope this was helpful to somebody out there

Hi @Buhidma

If it is heating then you can try to do the reset to check if that makes any difference.

Check the above link to do the reset. 

NOTE: Make sure to backup all the data from the laptop before the reset.

Hope it will help you in some way.
