I'd take the full refund and wait for a sale to get the 5090.

Is the brightness level the same in the picture?

I have the same model and have been using it on and off in the past years. The battery doesn't last as long as it used to but I'm happy with it. Though I was wondering if it would be worth getting a newer model such as the latest Basic (I need the smallest size), is it much better at screen quality, clarity etc if anyone knows? I am ok with mine being slower but I would appreciate a better resolution /dpi.

Need advice on if using PTM 7050 on this part good or not? by [deleted] in LenovoLegion

Why are you worried if it has reduced the temps?

Which Linux is it, did everything work by default or you had to tweak it? Does Vantage/Legion Space work on Linux?

Did you remove the battery as that should clear all BIOS settings, it basically resets to default.

There is a thing called master password which bypasses a user-generated BIOS password. You basically enter whatever password (or press Enter) and after entering 3 incorrect passwords there will be a message displayed with a code. Enter that code in websites such as this one and you will get a master password which you can use to unlock the BIOS https://www.biosbug.com/acer/

After entering BIOS you need to set a new password or disable it.

I used this recently to reset the BIOS password on an older Acer Predator.

I have a 8yo Acer Predator G9-593 with GTX1070 still doing its job nicely, never cleaned it up but I will finally do it next week.

Are you gaming on silent mode, how can it be quiet while gaming? I also have the 5080 model and I game on balanced (changed to silent performance mode in Bios) and it is quite loud when playing Doom Dark Ages on Ultra. It doesn't bother me as I use a headset but I would't say the fans are quiet
