hi! i bought predator helios rtx 3060 laptop, i7 10th gen around may 2021,i was happy to see the latop tpd was constant arround 100w and was able to undervolt with throtlestop to reduce temp ,then i updated the vbios 105w but it never reached 105w it was always arround 100, around july 2021 i was gaming on it with predator sense extreme performence( was playing acv) suddenly the laptop turned off and restarted, after that the battery was not charging and the laptop shut down when playing game even when connected with ac adapter. so i send it for repair to acer hoping i will get it fixed and it will be exactly like before as it came with two years official warrenty, and i had to wait almost three months to get the laptop back and i received it today. after running games,
to my disapointment acer has locked me off from undervolting and now the tdp is locked to 85w even in extreme mood, even the bios is different. what a disapointment a very horrible experience. as all acer predator laptop should have undervolt unlocked and tdp should be 105w. i cannot even update any bios from acer support sites. i hope acer would be able to help me to make the laptop as it was before, can be undervolted and tdp should hit 100w. please help!
