1. Remove the bottom plate

All you need to do to access the internals of this notebook is to remove the bottom panel. It is held in place by 7 Phillips-head screws. After that, gently make your way around the edges with a plastic pry tool and you will be able to lift it off the chassis.

2. Battery

Lastly, there is the 52.5Wh battery pack, which should power this notebook, when a charger is not plugged. Keep in mind, it is best to remove the battery plug before you continue.

3. Memory and storage

Memory-wise the laptop features two RAM SODIMM slots that fit up to 32GB of DDR4 memory in total. On the storage side, there is the M.2 PCIe x4 slot and a 2.5″ SATA drive bay.

4. Cooling system

Its cooling is made out of two similarly sized thick heat pipes, which cool down both the CPU and the GPU. Additionally, there are two fans, blowing cool air towards the rather long heat sink. This setup is seen on the Acer Nitro 5, Helios 300 and Triton 300 from 2019.
