How to open Acer Aspire 15 (A15-41M) - disassembly and upgrade options

Acer Aspire 15 (A15-41M) review – surprisingly good
Source: Laptop Media English
The Acer Aspire 15 (A15-41M) is not only suitable for standard home and office tasks but you can also use it for something more serious like 3D rendering. The modest cooling is doing a fine job even when it has to deal with an 8-core beast like the Zen 4 Ryzen 7 8840HS. The latter can maintain around 3.40 GHz in long stress which is a great result for a not-so-expensive laptop. In this scenario, the fan isn’t too noisy and the keyboard feels just warm which is enough for good comfort even when the CPU is pounded with heavy loads. For optimal processor performance, the memory should operate in dual-channel mode. That’s possible since you get a SODIMM. Sadly, for storage upgrades, there is just one slot for Gen 4 NVMe drives. The Wi-Fi card is also replaceable. Overall, the notebook feels fast during any kind of load.

AMD Radeon 780M: Integrated graphics card in the Ryzen 7040 mobile series APUs based on the RDNA3 architecture with 12 CUs (= 768 shaders) and a clock speed of up to 3 GHz.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

R7 8840HS: A high-end, Hawk Point family processor that was unveiled in Q4 2023. The 8840HS isn't actually a new chip; instead, it's similar to the Ryzen 7 7840U but with a 5 W higher minimum TDP as well as higher clock speeds on the Ryzen AI NPU. The 8840HS has 8 SMT-enabled cores (16 threads) running at 3.3 GHz to 5.1 GHz. Those Zen 4 architecture cores are mated to the Radeon 780M integrated graphics adapter.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
