Reviews for the Acer Aspire 5 A517-58M
Source: Laptop Media
Well, well, the not-so-expensive Acer Aspire 5 (A517-58M) hides some tricks up in its sleeve like the impressively high CPU clocks during load. The optional Core i7-1355U (which is the top chip option for the series) can sustain 3.09 GHz / 2.18 GHz for the P and E cores when the processor is loaded at max for a long time. This is a tremendously good result, and don’t forget the fact that we are talking about a budget device. That’s one of the advantages of a big laptop – there is more free space around the thermal solution which is beneficial for the whole cooling. The air inlet keyboard design and the lifting hinge of the lid also help in this situation. Speaking of which, when the processor is heavily loaded, the keyboard doesn’t become too hot to the touch and the single cooling fan isn’t too noisy.
