Acer Unveils Its Liquid-Cooled Laptop

Hardware and electronics corporation, Acer, has just revealed its newest edition to the laptop family — the Switch Alpha 12 2-in-1 notebook that comes equipped with liquid-cooling technology.

The laptop is the first fanless 2-in-1 notebook to use a 6th Generation Intel® Core i7, Core i5 or Core i3 processor.

The liquid-cooling technology, which Acer calls the LiquidLoop Cooling System keeps the Switch Alpha 12 at a stable temperature without fan noise. Since there’s no fan, and therefore no venting required, the laptop is not susceptible to airflow issues and dust accumulation.

Its fanless feature makes it ideal for use in places where quiet operation is appreciated – such as meetings, shared offices, classes and libraries.

“The Switch Alpha 12 is part of Acer’s new generation of mobile 2-in-1 products that focuses on providing exceptional performance, while also remaining cool and quiet,” said Jerry Hou, general manager, Commercial & Detachable Notebooks, IT Products Business, Acer Inc. “This new Switch Alpha line takes the best aspects of our award-winning Switch 2-in-1 product line and adds new features such as a fanless design, an ultra-thin attachable keyboard and the latest in mobile computing performance.”

The laptop comes equipped with some other desired features like its size, weight, display, and eight-hour battery life and will be available in June for $600.
