Acer Unveils Impressive Gaming Lineup: Predator X34 V, Helios 3D 15 SpatialLabs Edition, Predator Triton 17 X, and Predator Helios Neo 16
Acer, a leading technology company, has announced its latest gaming lineup featuring four exciting models. The Predator X34 V, a popular line of monitors, is now jumping into the gaming OLED space. This new model is set to hit retail in most parts of the world in the fourth quarter of 2023, with a starting price of $1,300 USD. However, based on the specs, it might just be worth the wait.
The Predator X34 V boasts a 34-inch, 1440p ultrawide curved OLED panel with a fast 175Hz refresh rate. It comes with more than the usual number of connections on a gaming monitor, including HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C, and 65-watt charging for laptops. The screen also features a pair of 5-watt speakers and an internal power supply. The only downside is a 250-nit max brightness, which is typical of larger OLED panels.
Acer also unveiled the Predator Helios 3D 15 SpatialLabs Edition, which combines a stereoscopic display with eye-tracking cameras. The laptop comes with 13th-gen Intel processors and GPUs maxing out at an RTX 4080. It will cost $3,599 for the base model when it launches in June.
The Predator Triton 17 X, on the other hand, is a sleek aluminum chassis that's less than an inch thick. It boasts processors up to a Core i9-13900HX, GPUs up to an RTX 4090, and a maximum of 64GB DDR5 RAM and 4TB of SSD storage. The 16:10 display is a mini-LED panel with 2560×1600 resolution and an impressive 250Hz refresh rate. It launches in May for a starting price of $3,799.
Finally, there's the Predator Helios Neo 16, which is designed for those on a budget. The gaming laptop comes with options for Intel 13th-gen processors and up to an RTX 4070 GPU, 43GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 2TB SSD. It boasts a 16-inch 2560×1600 IPS screen, with a more-than-respectable 165Hz refresh rate and a 3ms response time. The base model, which has to settle for a 1920×1200 screen at the same speed, will be $1,300 when it launches in May.
