QUOTE(hydroboy87 @ Oct 21 2011, 05:15 PM) i already ordered this laptop...really hope it performs well for gaming and adobe after effects.... by the way i love its sexy design and color! anyone tried high end softwares and games on this laptop??? High end games run just fine.. just dont expect to run them in 1366x768 ULTRA settings  Witcher 2 plays like crap on it though, mostly due to buggy Nvidia drivers. Anyone got it working correctly yet?

@lee_what2004, what's the maximum temperature threshold of the CPU before it got throttled down to 800Mhz or 1200Mhz?
Thanks.

Thanks bro.. just tested mine, seems that at 88C and 89C the CPU is still holding up..
Gonna further test by playing some FPS games and setting multiplier in Throttlestop to x26

Confirmed:
Without any tweakings = CPU threshold at 82C before being throttled down to 1.2GHZ. This is the limitation of Acer, they've set up the BIOS to do so, and this definitely sux for gaming
By manually setting the multiplier in ThrottleStop to any numbers (e.g X27) = CPU wont throttle down even if it reaches 94C, but of course this would be dangerous for long term usage

I wish there are some ways we could control/adjust the fan speed of the CPU and Nvidia graphic card.. woulda make a lot of difference indeed
