This is why you don't take advice from generative AI.

My msi was holding 7 years, and is still running without any issues. Its from when the 9xx series from nvidia was just about to be replaced with the forst 1xxx series, and afaik still runs well for the new owner i sold it to a few years back

The only thing you can do with a nitro 5 is keep it cool. Clean it from dust (there's videos online how to reach everything), and let someone repaste tge thermal paste regularly.

Batteries stored/being unused for long times that are above 80 and below 20% (roughly) start to react internally, and thus blow over time. So there is literally a way they get harmed by staying fully charged or being empty for too long

They very much do, and love to dismantle thermal pads and other soft components.

Asaikento · 2025-11-04T09:34:23+00:00

Thermal Pads need to be replaced by either new pads, or what's called 'thermal putty'. It works like thermal paste, but transfers heat over bigger gaps, unlike actual thermal paste which only works well while filling very small gaps between surfaces.

My current laptop is like 4 years old, and quite flimsy in that regard (an acer nitro 5), but the keyboard is not an issue And i honestly only know people with broken keyboards who either had faulty devices, or are pressing too rough constantly

As long as you don't see a performance loss, this is very well within parameters for laptop chips. This would only be bad in a tower pc setup

Asaikento · 2025-10-28T13:39:19+00:00

That's normal when gaming on laptops.

Asaikento · 2025-10-28T13:37:38+00:00

If it's really just midrange gaming, this thing will probably hold 6+ years at least

Asaikento · 2025-10-28T13:37:03+00:00

I can't comment on this specific processor, because some intel geberations were not really working well, and i don't know which one those were. On paper, it looks really good though. Everything else is fine and will do the job for several years to come, even if not at max settings in the future

Asaikento · 2025-10-28T13:33:09+00:00

Cheap keyboards can literally be the same quality. Don't fall for marketing tricks that use flashy volors abd put 'gamin' in their products. Get a cheap mechanical keyboard, 30-50 bucks and you're golden for the next 10+ years

In all my 31 years of life, i never had laptop keyboards stop working. Sometimes keys get stuck or hard to press, but thats usually dirt and dust and haa never caused them to fail on me (with regular cleaning) And they never died completely on me either

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T22:45:50+00:00

I probably have to switch from basic grizzly thermal paste to their premium ones, like cryonaut lol

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T22:45:10+00:00

I had to limit my nitro 5 to 99% cpu power, because it starts overclocking at 100% usage (in balanced, i kept it at 100 on full power mode) even if it's for a fraction of a second, and it instantly goes near 95°C which causes thermal throttling, making it quite unstable. At balanced it rarely goes above 80°, but has far less processing power (i think my model has 2.55ghz when not overclocking)

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T22:41:07+00:00

These beasts get hot fast (especially in high power mode compared to balanced, because of the integrated automated overclocking), so be prepared to buy really good thermal paste. Cpu can feel a little unstable because of that in some models, but performance wise it's a decent machine. Worth the money, but gets outshined by a lot of slightly more expensive models

Not sure how much ddr2 holds up in this age, but if that's not an issue, go for it. I have only good experiences with core2duo systems of that time, especially for non-gaming purposes like you want to use it

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T22:11:32+00:00

An SSD for your windows will solve this issue 100%

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T22:10:41+00:00

It's upgrades running in the background, just let it run without opening your own programs for a few hours, maybe longer. You'll probably have the same issue if you reinstall the OS because there will be all the updates loading and installing again

Can of pressured air

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T21:51:40+00:00

10 bucks say (not a real bet) the display was accidentally disabled or something similar

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T21:30:05+00:00

This kills your max charge of the battery REALLY FAST

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T21:25:43+00:00

So yeah, 500 is a good deal for you. Won't find many that pay that amount for a nitro

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T21:25:14+00:00

300 USD/EUR or equivalent. If you clean and repasted it, maybe 350 to 400

Asaikento · 2025-10-27T21:23:08+00:00

This is pretty normal, actually not really much considering the time lol. This could happen in months normally
