    I have the exact same laptop, it can play fortnite and warzone very smooth, I get like 120fps in fortnite and 50fps in warzone. I added a 8gb ram stick and 1TB HDD.

      @@altzerz Ram is the memory, the more ram you have the more tasks you can have open at once, it gives you speed and efficency, the more ram the better. For the HDD, There are 2 types of storages in now a days comupters Hard Disk Drive (HDD) and Solid State Drive (SSD). SSD is way faster than HDD meaning SSD can open and load programs way faster than the hard disk. So if you want to upgrade ask someone who knows about comupters for help or search on the interent, you can look up what storage and ram is compatible with your laptop and the max upgradable size the computer can handle. Hope I answered your quesstion>
      BTW I think the max ram upgrade is 20gb or 16gb ram and 4gb comes with the laptop (you can"t remove that 4gb ram it is soldered on the motherboard). I recommend that you get a 8GB DDR4 Ram stick and fill that extra slot and for the storage you could get a 2.5" Sata SSD storage either 128gb 256gb or if you alot you can go for 1 TB.

    Does it hurt to keep the laptop plugged in 24/7? Using like a PC desktop. Meaning keeping on the computer desk like the PC .

    • @DigitalDavid
      @DigitalDavid  ปีที่แล้ว

      There's no danger of overcharging a battery if you leave it plugged in all the time, even 24/7. As soon as it hits 100 percent, it will cease charging and won't start again until the voltage falls below a certain level. Fully discharging a battery will damage it.

    Hi, I have a Acer a515-46-r3ub that needs the screen replaced. I'm helping a family member fix it but I don't know where to get the replacement screen or the model needed to do it. Do you know what monitor model I need to order?

    • @DigitalDavid
      @DigitalDavid  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Michael! Based on the model number you provided (Acer a515-46-r3ub), I believe the laptop you're referring to is the Acer Aspire 5 A515-46. To replace the screen, you'll need to find a compatible replacement LCD panel that matches the specifications of the original screen.
      To do this, you can follow these steps:
      Locate the original screen part number: You can do this by checking the part number on the back of the existing screen or by looking up the specifications for the laptop model online. The part number for the screen may also be listed in the device's documentation.
      Search for a compatible replacement screen: You can search for the part number of the original screen to find a compatible replacement screen. You can also search for the model number of the laptop to find screens that are compatible with that specific model.
      Order the replacement screen: Once you've found a compatible replacement screen, you can order it from a reputable supplier or retailer.
      Replace the screen: After you've received the replacement screen, you'll need to carefully remove the broken screen from the laptop and install the new one. There are many online guides and tutorials that can help you with this process.
      I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions. cnl

      Great questions! Really comes down to price or performance and what you want! Very similar but I would give the edge to the i5 but it will cost more $$ here is some helpful info for you: nanoreview.net/en/cpu-compare/intel-core-i5-1235u-vs-amd-ryzen-5-5500u
