Desktops and laptops and tablets, oh my!
Acer has big plans for its Predator gaming line. Down the line, you can expect the Predator family to include projectors and smartphones. In the meantime, Acer just introduced a whole bunch of Predator products, including two laptops, two desktops, a tablet, and a monitor.
The new desktop options include the Predator G3 and G6. As with past Predator desktops, the physical design is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. Inside the battle armor, however, are Skylake processor options, up to 64GB of DDR4 RAM, and GeForce GTX graphics cards. The desktops will be available in December starting at $849.
If you need something to pair them with, Acer announced the Predator Z35, a curved 35-inch UltraWide monitor with a 2560x1080 resolution, 144Hz refresh rate (overclockable to 200Hz), and Nvidia G-Sync support.
Acer's two Predator laptop options include the Predator 15 and 17, the former with a 15.6-inch display and the latter with a 17.3-inch panel. Other features include Core i7 Skylake processors, up to a GeForce GTX 980 GPU, up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM, and a FrostCore cooling system that consists of three fans. These will be available next month starting at $1,499.
Finally, there's the Predator 8 tablet. It has an 8-inch display with a 1920x1200 resolution, Intel Atom x7 processor, four front-facing speakers, and offers haptic feedback. It will be available on November 6 starting a $300.
