Hello, I bough Acer Nitro 5 AN515-52 some months ago, and I am getting more and more worried about its temperatures because they are around 90 degrees celsius while gaming. So I want to ask if is normal and how I could reduce it, thanks.

    90 degrees is pushing the limit and I suspect bad thermal paste which has been an ongoing problem. Repaste with Grizzly Kryonaut which is fairly simple and the video below shows you how step by step. You can also try undervolting using Intel XTU or a similar program, reduce it to -0.180v, -0.175v in steps, -0.150 is usually about right and has been shown to drop temps to around 80 deg

    Turn on cool boost from nitro sense software.

     Normal in nitro and predator this normal both system have cool boost to solve

    Hello, with my new (purchased 5 days ago) Nitro 5 An515-54 (9750h and Gtx 1660Ti) i reach easily 96 degrees celsius after 1 hour of gaming (Guild Wars 2). I'll try undervolting but if I change thermal paste I lose my warranty?
