    Hello,

    I recently bought a Predator 17 laptop from Acer. I would like to know if I should keep Predatorsense's "Maximum fan speed" option on even if I am not gaming, because it was already enabled and makes a lot of noise.

    Is it safe to have it turned off and turn on only when I play games?

    That is perfectly fine. Msi has a similar feature with coolerboost, and from my knowledge most people only use it when playing very intense games or overclocking.
