By any stretch of the imagination it’s a niche product, and Acer has reflected that in its manufacturing. On Tuesday the company made the laptop available for purchase and revealed that only 300 will hit the shelves.
Acer Predator 21 X Specs
The laptop is clearly targetted at gamers, evident in both branding and its backlit mechanical keyboard. More impressive than its looks, however, is what’s under the hood. It’s one of the most powerful laptops ever created:
Display: 21″ 120 Hz curved IPS display, 2560×1080 CPU: Core i7-7820HK, Quad core, 2.9/3.9 GHz GPU: 2x NVIDIA Geforce 1080 in SLI with G-Sync RAM: 64 GB DDR4 Storage: 2x 512 GB SSD, PCIe 3.0 in RAID 0, 1 TB HDD Battery: Li-ion, 6000 mAh I/O: 4 x USB 3.0 Type-A, USB Type-C Thunderbolt 3, 2x DisplayPort 1.3, HMDI 2.0b, Tobii eye tracking Dimensions: 22.4″ (width) x 12.4″ (depth) x 2.71 – 3.3″ (thickness) Weight: 18.74 lbs
Those are some insane specs, and reviews so far suggest that using it for everyday tasks is equally ridiculous. The laptop weighs a ton and is carried in a special, giant case. It’s hard to deny its excellent gaming performance, however, and it can last a little time away from the power socket.
