    Yes, you can likely charge your Acer laptop with a GaN charger via USB-C. Gallium Nitride chargers are efficient and compact, making them a good choice for charging laptops via USB-C.

    Your laptop, like many other laptops, typically requires a charger with an output of 19V and 3.42A, which translates to 65W. While a 65W charger is a good starting point, you can use a charger with higher wattage (e.g., 100W) as long as it supports the required voltage (19V or 20V).

    If your laptop's original charger is 65W, then a 65W or higher GaN USB-C charger should work fine.

    I hope this helps! If this was useful, please hit 'Yes' or 'Like'! Thanks! 😊
