    You need to keep the power adapter or USB-C charger plugged in 24/7 to keep the battery fully charged, don't let the battery deplete below 50% as that will trigger Power Plan throttling to preserve battery power and when plugging in the adapter/charger then the adapter/charger will have to work double to fast charge the battery and provide power to the system/games and that will generate a lot of heat, may even shut down the system. Also do not use the 80% battery charge limiting option in Acer Care Center but always charge to 100%.
