    Anyway, saw this discussion about the same issue with an515-44 and the solution might be roll back to w10 in case you have w11

    It's been a long time since I moved from Windows 11 to Windows 10. I have similar problem in windows 10, when i install AMD updated drivers i have a crackling sound problem from speaker. The sound driver is definitely not working properly with the new up to date AMD drivers. AMD Radeon Software 22.3.1 later drivers have sound problems.

    In addition, there are problems such as leaving marks on the screen on some websites in the Chrome browser. When you take it to the game profile, there is a problem of leaving a mark on the screen.

    The TPM problem persists even after the motherboard has been replaced, which means that all Nitro 5 AN515-44 devices are said to have this problem.

    AMD made a statement for this TPM problem. Acer should release bios updates to fix it. I have Nitro AN515-45 model and there is also a bad stuttering problem.

    Current BIOS version 1.04 does not support amd_pstate in linux whatsoever. Pipewire support is also not good. Windows 11 has performance issues, flickers, high temps and fps drops. Even on the website, the drivers available for AN515-44 are only for windows 10, not even 11.
    It is really bad to see that the hardware is capable enough but is being sabotaged by its own outdated BIOS.

    We need a new BIOS update with these issues fixed!

    Better not get your hopes up! Acer not only sabotaged but also abandoned (claiming EOL) the Aspire 5 A515-45(G) and Nitro 5 AN515-44 series.

    These models require the AGESA and SMU microcode to be updated. Which Acer and the manufacturer of the motherboards that equip these laptops won't do!
