Acer also described the cooling system on the Nitro 14:
A dual-fan system with Vortex Flow consistently draws in air into the device from both the top and bottom sides of the fans, and thus creates an aerodynamic flow that enhances cooling for the CPU, GPU, and crucial components, while the heat conductivity of liquid metal thermal grease on the CPU keep the Nitro laptop ready for anything.
