Hi,
about a 2 days ago, i started to notice speed of my gpu fan drop. initially it dropped to 5600 at max with coolboost enabled (it used to be 6200 before). and today it is 3000 with terribly high temperature. the only app i am using is chrome. currently if i disable coolboost, the fan speed increase by about 300. which is absurd cause it is supposed to decrease with coolboost disabled
any idea?

    try turning off the computer, disconnect the power adapter, press the Power button for thirty seconds and leave the laptop off for thirty minutes.

  • Is the laptop under warranty? have you taken apart the laptop and checked the fans?

    Hi, actually my laptop has been replaced 4 times till now. A month since the latest replacement. And no.... I haven't taken it apart
  • Has your laptop been replaced or been to the Acer repair center four times?

    Do you have the possibility to exchange the laptop with acer technical support? I ask you this, because the notebook has already been sent for repair four times.
    i have requested for a replacement or a refund but they aren't responding. they sent a service technician who says its a faulty fan! also the laptop has started to lag a lot again and have again requested for a technician to check it out!. i can tell you now itself that they will say it is a faulty hdd and replace the hdd again, making it 5 hdd replacements 1 aux and 1 fan in a span of 10 months

    I suggest people to stay away from nitro products. no matter what it is.

    and to answer ur question... no i didnt test the fans... they are being replaced 
  • I would try a deal with Acer, since your laptop has been in repair several times.

    well the technical team has found out that the first replacement made(of hdd), was wrong. they supplied the wrong hdd model (the original version had 7200rpm but the version they replaced with has 5600rpm) this caused the hdd probs and the fan prob is a faulty fan.
