My acer nitro 5 is making a rattling noise and with that the performance comes down. I think that something is stuck in the fan like dust or something . However I want to make sure that if I remove the fan an expose the thermal paste I do not have to replace the thermal paste. Please reply

@aryaanyy6494 if you lift the cooler, you have to replace the thermal paste on the GPU and CPU. If the paste is fresh, theoretically you can lift the cooler and than put it back, but I don't recommend it.

Thanks for this! I just bought an Acer Nitro 5 from a local second hand shop (Cash Converters in the UK). Got home and ran Heaven Benchmark on it - temps on the 1050 were hitting 95 degrees! Opened it up - caked in dust! Used a blower to get most out, then took apart the fans - just as clogged as the ones in your video. Clean them out, changed the thermal paste (MX-4), put it back together and ran Heaven Benchmark again. Temps had dropped to 63 degrees. Thanks again for the vid! 🙂

I wasn’t sure how to take the fans apart, this video showed me exactly how. I also found the same amount of dust collected around the edges of the fans. Removing those dropped my by temps by 10-15 degrees Celsius in game and idling. Thank you so much.

Had a busted GPU fan on my Nitro 5. It kept making a whirring and rattling noise so I finally decided to replace it myself. This video is an absolute gift it helped with the replacement everything worked like a charm. No more noise now and temps easily dropped by 5-10 degrees Celsius. Thank you so much man absolute legend!

Thank you. Just what I was looking for. My GPU fan was screaming bloody murder. Followed your tutorial, removed the dust build-up, put some WD-40 on the GPU fan pin, clean up excess liquid with a Q-Tip, and put it back together. Works like new now. Cheers.

haven't been able to find a video for a 54 model, thanks!

this is so useful it makes everything more simple I'm used to clean my own laptops and tear them down but still, I was a bit scared in this one but your video made everything better thank you :)

Finally got around to doing this and my laptop is immediatelly so much better! It used to start overheating after like 5 minutes of having a browser and Discord open and now it's so quiet I almost thought I didn't reconnect the fans properly 😂 temps according to the NitroSense used to be above 80°c and now they're in the 40's! Thank you for this step-by-step, it was genuinely very helpful!

My son's computer just froze and I suspected overheating. Just want to say that you saved the day at my house by helping me fix my son's computer. Instead of spending a lot of money on repairs I just bought cooling paste and did it myself. Really easy video to follow for anyone with the right screwdriver. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Super duper video! Thank you so much!! Has fixed the problem of a rattling fan and abnormal fan noise. We have Acer Nitro 5 of different model, where fans can't be unscrewed. But the idea is clear - big lumps of dust are present - you just need to get access to them. In our model I carefully pulled the fans off a frame, and scraped out dust clumps with flat screwdriver from around the perimeter of each fan, and brushed off the blades carefully. Ordered thermo paste. Will apply it when it comes. Super happy!

This video saved my Nitro 5 with RTX 2060 and i7 9750h. Significant improvement in thermals

Very helpful video. Thank you for taking the time to do this!

Not only you helped me clean my laptop, you saved it. Heck the temps before where at 95c and i was just getting sick of it. After this tutorial, the temps (while gaming) are literally 70c. It's insane how much I can now feel the air coming out the vents! Thank you so much!!

Thank you. My daughter's Nitro 5 fans have become really loud. I may have to replace them but first I'm going to try cleaning them. Your video will be my guide.

❄This was exceptionally done. Thank you!! ❄

Really helpful video. The problem with models like this (I have the AN515-43) is that you have to take off the whole heat sink even if you just want to properly dust off the fans and vents. I'd cleaned and repasted mine just four/five months ago but then it started overheating again due to I assume dust accumulation. So just to clean out the fans and vents I had to take the whole heat sink off and repaste it again. Unless I'm missing something, this seems like a very annoying design flaw.

Thank you for the tutorial! I followed all steps and the GPU temperatures dropped from 70°C to like 40°C in the same conditions. CPU temperatures dropped too.

Extremely useful and worked for my Acer Nitro 7 (2019) Model. It's working well afterwards, saw an idle temp drop from 70° to 45 and on load temp from 95° to the 60-70s immediately after the process. I'm expecting it to average to about 80, 85° possibly on extreme load, which is still far better than my previous temps

Also the black and yellow tape/tabs have hardly any stick to them. What are they and is it possible to replace them? I don't want them to come loose and it stop working. This laptop is all I have and was very expensive which I only got through very lucky circumstances and I would never be able to get another one for years if something happened to it.
