Q: QuestionAm I able to replace the screen to 120hz or 144hz?

Asked 5 years ago by Term.

• A:Answer Acer does not offer a means to replace the LCD screen with one that supports a higher refresh rate. Other factors apply as well, such as mainboard and GPU. If you need a 144hz laptop, we recommend purchasing one that supports this refresh rate out of the box, for the best experience.

Asked 5 years ago by Paul.

Q: QuestionCan the keyboard backlight be turned off? Also, since I am not a gamer but like the specs on this computer, why are there 4 keys illuminated much brighter than the others?

Asked 6 years ago by FreddyF.

• A:Answer Those four keyboard keys are used to interact with video games in lieu of arrow keys or a video game controller. Pressing FN+F9 and FN+F10 decreases/increases the backlight on the keyboard.

Q: QuestionI bought this laptop with 256gb a month ago. Can I add extra 2.5 Internal HDD or SDD in it?

Asked 6 years ago by Robey.

• A:Answer You certainly can. It's got expansion for another M.2 drive as well as a standard 2.5" Mechanical or SSD drive. If you want to expand the SSD storage I'd recommend looking at the Corsair MP510 series. They're cheap, fast, have a 5yr warranty and will probably outlive you lol. They have the highest endurance of any drives currently on the market, enterprise sector aside.
