    Hello,

    I would like to ask why on my Nitro 7, there is a Predator symbol on the lid? Is it fake?
    The laptop also becomes very hot when playing games compared to other Nitro 7 laptop with the same spec.

    Here is a picture of my Nitro 7. Before, I thought the logo is normal, but turned out there are no logos on other Nitro 7 laptops

    Ok, but Nitro series are officially not somekind subtype of Predators right? 

    Collectors item or not, I suspect they did not good thermal pasting on this one, CPU reaches 90°C and the metal part between the keyboard and screen becomes very hot when playing games (especially Witcher 3 and Total War Three Kingdoms) and it happpens in just under 30 minutes of play.

    GPU temp is lower which is strange because games like Witcher 3 depends on it. 

    Using cooling pad and undervolting are not helping much.

    I regretted buying this laptop. I can not bear the heat on my left fingers and the loud fan noise when playing games.

    Nitros are designed to run up to 90 deg c. There have been some pasting problems so if you are under warranty I would contact the Acer support center for your region and have them repaste it, I think the USA region let's you repaste yourself but you'll have to check with them, if they do use Grizzly Kryonaut. As for the noisy fans, the biggest killer of gaming laptops is an overheated CPU so personally I'd rather have noisy fans and game with my earbuds or headset connected.

    I'm guessing you are from indonesia right ? 
    indonesian model seems like to have a predator logo on their new nitro series, and yes, its not a fake.

    I bought mine awhile ago, and it sometimes can reach 90°C+ even when i already undervolted the CPU with -150mV.
    when i played witcher 3 i got around 84    °C undervolted.
    But, it depend on my room temperature. i rarely play on the day since its easily can reach 90    °C+ when gaming.

    Sorry to hear your experiencing temperatures issues with the Acer Nitro 7 unit, can you please send me a private message with the serial number of your unit so I can also take a look at the Predator logo on the lid question?

    Where did you purchase this unit?  

    Thanks in advance,
    Acer-Manny
