Acer Aspire 5 (A515-56G) - disassembly and upgrade options

Acer Aspire 5 (A515-56G) review – new design and fresh hardware – this must be worth it
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Here, we are definitely seeing an improvement over last year. The design looks better (subjectively), the laptop is more portable (by being 150 grams lighter), and it has a lot more performance than ever before. Of course, if we’re not considering the AMD options, of course. Thankfully, this laptop uses a 25W version of the MX350, which provides a pretty decent gaming experience. In fact, as we tested, the integrated Xe Graphics G7 also provides high-enough fps in low-demanding games.

Comment

NVIDIA GeForce MX350: Successor of the MX250 and most likely a renamed GeForce GTX 1050 based on the Pascal GP107 chip with 640 shaders and a 64 Bit memory bus for GDDR5.

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

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
