Mind to pm me how much you can sell off?

im gonna get this laptop soon. cant decide whether shud get the one with gtx860 or gtx960. does the newer graphic card worth the money?

i think yes.. only extra 300?

hmm...just realised it is only a minor improvement to gtx860 in terms of graphic quality...
im a noob here... gtx 860 or gtx 960 makes no difference to the heat of the laptop right?

To my knowledge, its only a minor improvement, performance wise and so far, makes no difference towards heating. PM me if you are interested in picking up the i7-4720HQ with GTX860M.

Yeah, I know its quite normal and perfectly fine with that. Just the slight warmth under the fight side palm-rest area. Apparently, its where the hard disk resides.

If im not mistaken around 2700. But thats like 4 months ago.

Its really a minor improvement and ive read some review stated 960 runs hotter than 860.

Do you guys use the laptop while charging? I mostly play games while charging but will i damage the battery? I scare it expand lol because without charging, I feel its so laggy

Ya bro, like i said earlier, maybe cuz of the hard drive cuz hard drive temperature in V Nitro quite high apparently. Mine previously around 40'ish Celcius. So i guess thats the reason the palm area gets warm a lil bit. Bad cooling design i suppose.

Nah... Mine is like plugged in all the time. Of course, I did a few battery full charges and depletion to properly calibrate its readings. Once stable, hovering the mouse over the power icon, you'll notice "**% available (plugged in, not charging)".

Silly. Might have to go the SSD route sooner than planned.

Hi guys!!! I would like to ask a few question about acer v15 nitro
1. Isnt using this method (device manager> battery> disable microsoft APCI-Compliant Control Method battery) will increase the battery life?
2. Isnt that dust defender and cooler boost techonolgy is just for acer v17 nitro because i checked acer's official website said that acer v nitro series laptop had this feature.
3. Is that any other ways to extend battery life for built-in battery laptop ?
Hopefully anyone can answer my question and thank you very much if you answer it. Thank you~

i finally got myself a V Nitro. I noticed the screen is rather yellowish/greenish. Is it normal or do I have to do colour calibration? anyone mind sharing your calibration settings?

Hmmm, Mine isn't and so shouldn't be normal. So try to update graphics drivers and system updates and see if it improves.

guys how do check the laptop temperature

try using hwmonitor

Anyone here experience ping shuttering using QCA61x4 wireless adapter when playing dota 2? I got a spare wireless adapter (tp-link) and found out that this problem dont happens

So recently ive started to experience problems with my v nitro

Bought since March,2015, Nowadays when I play Dota it tends to lag/ framerate drop when alot of things happening on screen

Never happen previously before. Any way to find out what's wrong with it

updated all drivers, dun seem to improve.
but after i recalibrated, it is more bearable now.
warranty does cover the monitor? no?

Yup... Definitely falls under warranty as long as you can prove it to them when dropping it off and also, no hardware modifications have been done on the laptop.

Is it sudden framedrop for few second? If yes, then it means that your laptop is overheating and CPU start throttling. Try follow the method to reduce temp at the first post.
