Transfer
I want to summarize the discussion of the issue, and although I understand that not everyone will like it and will not entirely agree with our decision, we want to bring it to all. Referring to the Acer-Travis post, I can once again confirm that the i5 processor in the W700 is working as intended and within the Intel specifications. With this in mind, Acer will not provide software that allows you to change the functionality of the i5 processor in the W700. The W700 is tuned to achieve optimal performance based on its smooth configuration and design, and the expansion of processor performance is not possible without the risk of overheating, because overheating is unacceptable. We appreciate all the comments on this issue and will use all the feedback we have gathered here to help our future products.
Opinion about the throttling of the user M.E.S.
Let me explain once again about throttling - it is NOT tied to temperature, it can start at 60 and at 90 degrees. It is tied to TDP, and when it becomes more than 17 (figure for acer) watts, throttling begins. Considering the fact that Vidyukha at max frequency requires about 10 watts, and the processor 10-15 watts, and the priority is on the processor, it turns out that vidyuhi gets only 5 watts, and this limits its frequency to 600-700 MHz. Many manufacturers have solved this problem by simply increasing the TDP to 25-30 watts, thereby giving it the vidyuhi it needs 10 watts. Acer refused to solve the problem.

Review on mail.ru
Interesting is not so much the review itself, as the price. And not so much the price as the fact that they are named. Once there is such information, it should be on sale soon. True, on the Russian site Acer is only a description without prices.
If you believe the review, the simplest modification costs 25 thousand without accessories. Docking station + keyboard + case = 3 thousand. The most powerful model will be 35 thousand.
In my opinion, the prices are quite adequate. Truth be told, not even really believe it. In the US, the range of $ 800-1050. Although m. B., This is the cost with accessories.

I also thought about it. Simply, if this is so, then, how do you need this tablet? The only advantage of iWi Bridge in front of Sandi (integrated graphics) is leveled because of the greed or dullness of the designers - marketers. It would be better to make a tablet on AMD 17 cotton prots, they have full order on the part of the GPU, plus they are cheaper, the quality drivers are not that of Intel (some games are wildly buggy), although in terms of the CPU they are lagging behind but not critical.
