Reviews for the Acer Aspire 3 A317-51G-569Z

Acer Aspire 3 (A317-51G) review – big and sturdy laptop that’ll do the job

Interestingly enough, the cooling performance of the device is ok considering the fact that there is just a single fan for the CPU and the GPU. The temperatures during load are under control and the upper part of the shell remains cool-enough so that means that you can use the device under heavy stress without sensing a big amount of heat beneath your fingers. The fan produces a moderate amount of noise during gaming and its silent when there is a CPU load only.
