Predator Triton 500
Powered by the latest 10th Gen Intel Core processors for high-performance notebooks and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER with Max-Q Design, the Predator Triton 500 is capable of taking on the toughest challenges. Its industry-leading 300 Hz IPS panel with a 1 ms overdrive response time displays all the action in smooth and vivid detail.
The Predator Triton 500 comes with a Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650i wireless controller, which ensures speed-critical applications get bandwidth priority, perfect for gamers’ grueling online gaming sessions. Packed into a thin 17.9 mm (0.7 in) and lightweight 2.1 kg all-metal chassis, which features narrow bezels and an LED-lit Predator emblazoned cover, making the Predator Triton 500 an ultraportable, premium looking gaming notebook. Impressively, it also increases productivity with up to 8 hours of battery life.
The Predator Triton 500 features Acer’s Vortex Flow technology, which is made of three custom-engineered fans, working in tandem to increase additional airflow, while also reducing noise. This is further enhanced by CoolBoost technology, which increases fan speed for improved performance. Gamers can monitor the device’s temperature and adjust the fan speed through the PredatorSense UI, as well as control and overclock their machine to avoid distracting pop ups during the battles.
The notebook’s innovative cooling system also features an industry-leading all-metal 4th Gen AeroBlade 3D fan that’s been specially designed to maximize airflow and reduce noise. Serrated edges, winglets, and a curved fin allow for up to 45% increase in airflow. Adding five heat pipes to the mix, the 2020 Predator Triton 500 ultimately gets 33% better thermal performance than its 2019 counterpart.
Acer Nitro 5
The Acer Nitro 5 also comes with a 10th Gen Intel Core i7 processor, delivering 5 GHz and graphics options of latest GeForce GTX 1650 or 1660Ti GPUs. It comes with up to 1 TB SSD for storage, and up to 32 GB RAM. Available with a 15.6-inch and 17.3” FHD IPS display, models with up to 144 Hz and a 3 ms response times allow for blur-free gameplay that comes to life on the device’s 72% NTSC, 300-nit panel2.
The notebook features a dual-fan cooling system that takes advantage of strategically placed intake/exhaust ports and four heat vents to achieve an overall 25% improvement in thermal performance over the 2019 model.
This is further optimized by CoolBoost technology capable of increasing fan speed by 10% and CPU/GPU cooling by 9%. New to this year’s model, Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 (802.11ax) and Killer Ethernet E2600 increase network stability and performance, enabling gamers to take full advantage of these thermal improvements.
The price for Predator Triton 500 gaming notebook will be starting at AED 15,999, while the Acer Nitro 5 gaming notebooks price will start from AED 4,899.
