Best Predator RTX 2080 gaming laptop

Fans of demanding games prefer to buy a personal computer rather than a laptop. The reason is simple - the filling of mobile technology is constantly behind the PC. It has always been that way. But manufacturers studied their many years of experience and decided to fill an empty niche. Acer Brand Introduces the World's Best Predator Gaming Laptop

 

 

The filling of the novelty simply pleases the eye of gamers. A powerful processor, a large amount of memory and the top nVidia gaming graphics card. The laptop comes in two versions - 17 inch with 4 display, and 15 inch with FullHD resolution. But first things first.

 

Best Predator Gaming Laptop

 

A laptop and a charger with 180 Watt power supply - that's all. Could already put a gaming mouse - fans of the brand write in reviews. By the way, sellers of shops do just that - they launch the action "buy a laptop - get a mouse as a gift."

 

 

Externally, the gaming device is no different from older versions of Triton laptops. Lack of decoration, slim body, beveled corners on the body. Is that the fins of the radiators painted blue. And they added the Predator logo on the metal cover of the mobile device, which is highlighted by blue LEDs. In general, the laptop turned out to be compact - only 2,1 kg of weight with a thickness of 1,8cm. Rigid construction and excellent operation of the hinges that hold the display in any position.

 

Interfaces and Multimedia

 

The DVD-Rom drive, along with the card reader, has sunk into oblivion. For the gamer, the number of interfaces to which multimedia can be connected is much more important. Gigabit port for network connection, USB 3.1, Type-C, HDMI 2.0 and audio connectors. There was even room for LED indicators that no longer shine in the eye if the laptop is charging.

 

 

The Bluetooth 5.0 module and Wi-Fi 802.11 a / b / g / n / ac add ease of use. There is a built-in webcam. For complete happiness, 4G support is not enough.

 

Input Devices

 

Fans of full-sized keyboards were left without a digital block and additional multimedia buttons. For Action and RPG, the keyboard will work, but for those who like to give commands to buttons through scripts, they will have to hook their favorite device onto USB.

 

 

The keyboard itself is comfortable. Membrane technology, a short but hard course of keys, a rough surface and a small notch under the finger - it is very comfortable to play and to type texts blindly. The arrow block is also full-sized. If you install the proprietary utility Predator Sence, an additional control panel is activated (the far right row of buttons). The manufacturer offers control of the cooling system, overclocking the video card and setting the keyboard backlight.

 

 

The touchpad is large, sensitive and supports multi-touch. There are no complaints about the work, but the appearance is slightly discouraging. There is a place on both sides of the touchpad - you could already add branded "chips" to control the laptop.

 

Best laptop: display

 

For the 15-inch version - FullHD resolution standard. Frosted screen, IPS display - a classic for gaming laptops. But the manufacturer did not stop and “awarded” the 144 Hz device with a screen. To some it seems overkill, but in a dynamic toy with 60 frames per second, the quality will immediately be noticeable. Response time, according to the developers, 3 ms.

 

 

Laptop specifications

 

Top filling - that’s it. A processor with Intel Core i6-7H 8750 cores operating at a frequency of 2,2 GHz and capable of independently accelerating to 4,1 GHz (Turbo Boost). 32 gigabytes of RAM (2 strips of 16 GB). Two WD company SSD screws for 512 GB. And the NVIDIA RTX 2080 Max-Q graphics card. At the beginning of 2019, there is not a single toy that would “load” such a configuration.

 

 

For thrifty shoppers, Acer has released the Predator Lite laptop with Intel Core i5-8300H. Variations of the lite version are presented with 8 and 16 gigabytes of RAM, 256 or 512 GB SSD and RTX 2060 or 2080 graphics cards.

 

Cooling system and autonomy

 

With a blast of heating components, the order is complete, but the laptop is buzzing like a plane on takeoff. For games, it is better to use headphones, otherwise the sound from the stereo speakers cannot be heard. I am glad that the manufacturer worried about users and gave access to the cooling system when cleaning the laptop. After removing the bottom cover of the mobile device, cleaning the best Predator gaming laptop is not a problem. But access to system components is limited. To change the screw or memory, you have to completely disassemble the laptop.

 

 

Given the top filling, the device is very autonomous. At full brightness, but under load, the laptop will last on the battery for up to 3 hours. If you reduce the backlight to 50%, then you can squeeze out another half hour. Four-cell Li-pol 5400 mAh (84 Wh) battery.
