understanding my boot log

I have a gl753vd-ds71, something not found in the Arch forums under Asus, and hard to find info on this specific model at all on Arch. I am trying to understand my boot log to maintain a healthy, and enjoyable experience on Arch linux. These Asus computers are a little extra complicated so to better understand what my system is doing wrong i am trying to understand my boot log, because most of the fixes i find for Asus computers generally do not work with this model. my issues are my RGB keyboard control, cannot reprogram the leds they are stuck how they were when i used windows. another problem is Nvidia vs Nouvea Graphics, what to use, and what will need to be fixed as i have both intel i7 and Nvidia GTX 1050 graphics. another thing is my fan rpm always say 0 unless i am in bios menu... I am booted on EFI they best i can tell following the tutorials here. i originally used unetbootin on usb and then installed it permanently onto my computer.  one thing i am trying to figure out in my boot log is.....

[    0.000000] Scanning 1 areas for low memory corruption 
[    0.000000] Base memory trampoline at [ffff885a00095000] 95000 size 24576

also....

[    0.000000] No NUMA configuration found

i know what numa is but hard to know whether or not i need to enable it on arch linux, it has no wiki here

also it seems i have errors.......

[    0.029288] ACPI Error: [PRT0] Namespace lookup failure, AE_ALREADY_EXISTS (20170303/dswload-378)

further down there is this....

and what's up the 'could not be reserved' ..

some sort of firmware bug???.....

this too....

[    7.259171] (NULL device *): hwmon_device_register() is deprecated. Please convert the driver to use hwmon_device_register_with_info().

is this why my rpm always show 0rpm for my fan unless i am in bios menu then it reads it just fine...

[    8.563049] thermal thermal_zone2: failed to read out thermal zone (-5)

i have a buttload of these.....

Nothing to worry about here. All is well. The latter message is unrelated to the former.

[    0.000000] No NUMA configuration found

You probably don't have a NUMA system. If you don't have two or more physical CPUs on your motherboard, you don't have a NUMA system. (With the exception of the recent AMD Threadripper platform)

Firmware bugs aren't uncommon. The kernel attempts to workaround those bugs where possible. Not sure what the implications of this one in particular is though.

[    7.259171] (NULL device *): hwmon_device_register() is deprecated. Please convert the driver to use hwmon_device_register_with_info().

This looks like a message left by a kernel developer to remind them to clean up their mess.

You may have faulty cooling. These messages indicate the CPU is overheating and is throttling itself to prevent permanent damage to the chip. Is the heatsink firmly attached and the CPU fan working?

Re: understanding my boot log

on numa, i have 8 cpu's  so should i do something?? 

on faulty cooling, my fan works great, but with the gnome shell axtension 'system-monitor' it always says my fan rpm is at 0rpm.... my temp seems fine. if i am in the bios menu it says my fan rpm

No
NUMA = Non-uniform memory access, doesn't apply to cores, it applies to more than one physical socket (like some servers) or as already mentioned a specific (not FX) AMD cpu
