Four performance levels are available, terminating at \u201cSilent\u201d on the low end. You\u2019d think that would throttle the CPU to the point where the fan wouldn\u2019t run at all, but that\u2019s not the case. Even in Silent mode, the fan runs regularly\u2014albeit at a somewhat slower pace. The Silent machine also took about a 40 percent hit on graphics performance and 25 percent when running general apps.<\/p>\n<p>The Swift X is a power-hungry beast, and while it charges through one of its USB-C ports, you\u2019ll need to use the 100-watt charger included with the device. It\u2019ll trickle-charge with a generic, lower-wattage adapter, but it\u2019ll never reach full capacity, even if it\u2019s powered down.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Side view of a silver laptop with the screen open about 90degrees showing the ports along the side\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/66f5ad681e71648547aef75c\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Acer-Swift-X-14-Laptop-Side-Ports-Reviewer-Photo-SOURCE-Christopher-Null.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd isTgyB fNaHcW caption__credit\">Photograph: Christopher Null<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong, the laptop has plenty of positive qualities. Ports are ample for a machine of this size, including two USB-A and two USB-C ports (again, one is used for charging), a full-size HDMI port, and a microSD card slot.

Overall stability isn\u2019t ideal, as I encountered weird visual hiccups like flickering images during my week with the system. Battery life at just over seven and a half hours isn\u2019t egregious but is worse than many competing laptops. And while performance is good across the board, there are plenty of devices on the market that handily outpace this system, including Acer\u2019s own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/acer-nitro-17-2024-amd\/\">Nitro 17<\/a>. Sure, that\u2019s a considerably bigger laptop, but it\u2019s got 50 percent better graphics performance while also being $450 cheaper.<\/p>\n<p>While the Swift X 14 has some positive aspects, it\u2019s a little difficult to determine who exactly it\u2019s for\u2014presumably the casual gamer or graphic designer who\u2019s always on the go and thus has to pack light. That could be a possibility, but the Swift just doesn\u2019t perform well enough to justify its luxe $1,700 price tag, and the bruisingly loud fan and heat problems do nothing to further that case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acer tries its best to mitigate this problem by giving you its AcerSense app (complete with custom \u201ca\u201d key on the top
