Questionno liq cool?how hot does this thing get?:
Asked 2 years ago by sthom89.
- Answer as long as you remember to put the fans on gaming mode your fine....there is auto-gaming-custom modes...i run auto when not gaming and then gaming when I'm gaming...custom the fans start at 60 % and u can adjust sliders from 60-100 % for each fan... i had a liquid cooled hp omen 40L the new 2022 model and returned it for this acer... it blows the hp away in every aspect...the hp just got way too hot for my liking and it didn't have argb lighting

QuestionI have this pc, and the ad on the website says it has ddr5 ram, which its base speed is usually 4800 MHz but on this pc when I look on task manager it says 4400 MHz, so why is that?
Asked 2 years ago by Mike.
- Answer They locked the bios, under clocking the ram. Lots of manufacturers do this. I think its to make it more "stable" ive tried to add 2 more 8gb sticks, from crucial. That should have worked, but causes crashes in applications and slows all the ram down to 2000mhz. I think im going to just upgrade the mother board to get away from the locked garbage that came pre-installed
