Predator Triton 500 Thin & Light Gaming Laptop, Intel Core i7-9750H, GeForce RTX 2060 with 6GB, 15.6" Full HD 144Hz 3ms IPS Display, 16GB DDR4, 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD, RGB Keyboard, PT515-51-75BH

Just a perfect gaming laptop. Not without its bugs, it is an Acer, and I had to send mine back into the store second or third week because THE BATTERY CHARGER PORT BROKE!!! But other than that it’s worked fine and preformed EXCELLENTLY when running high quality games at max settings with no need for turbo.

Was undervolted by -0.1V when arrived with Cinebench R20 score of ~2,400. Able to further undervolt to -0.165V for ~10% increase in Cinebench R20 score to ~2,600. Needed to use ThrottleStop to undervolt as Intel XTU's settings would not stick. Didn't see any difference in Cinebench R20 score with Turbo on or off.

I used to be a total Windows/Android fan for many years, and then 3 years ago, I switched to iPhone and Macbook Pro, and totally love them, and I can't go back to using Windows for anything anymore. I have never had a good experiences with the windows machine, partially because, in my opinion, Windows OS sucks so hard and can't do my jobs as smoothly as macBooks can (at least for my line of work). I was skeptical about the Machine because this was the first time I decided to purchase a decent enough Windows machine with good specs. This was my second machine that I purchased within the last week (bought Razer Blade 15 first but there was a loose part in the body and the machine's battery would not charge and therefore lost power after 3 hours of use). After doing some more research, my eye landed on this one. I returned the Razer Blade 15 and then got this one after several hours of research. When I received this machine, I was surprised to know that the machine build was pretty good. Though it feels like a mixture of plastic and steel, it is a solid build nonetheless, in my opinion. Pros: - Boots up very fast, within maybe several seconds - Very fast overall. - Gaming experiences is very smooth, great graphics and control is very sleek (thanks for 144 Hz frequency). - Killer Function that can work seamlessly with both ethernet and wireless at the same time. - Many Ventilations - no fear of overheat - Relatively thin, given its class and the power within - Many ports - this is very important to me. - Fans do get noticeably loud, but I can live with it because the gaming experiences is what I care about the most. Con: - not at this point

scoured the internet for a laptop that would do 3d modelling and game development in unity. This thing is great for blender, and so far everthing else. Was looking at the helios 300, the razer blade, and all the rest. Between reviews, specs and price this thing came out on top. Only immediate downside to this laptop are the gamer aesthetics on the lid, which you cant turn off due to it being the light shining through from your display. But once you peel all of the stickers off and buy some black vinyl and a sticker to cover up the hideous glowing "predator" logo, you can actually be an adult in public with this thing, getting things done. Havnt done anything that could be considered real gaming on it, but for everything thus far I've thrown at it for the past 2 weeks its been great. The battery life is better than average for a gaming laptop, but if you research it at all you'll find it is relatively low in general due to the specs in this or any real gaming laptop. RTX 2060 works great for blender and doesn't slow anything down, and from a 3d modelling standpoint should future proof you for a bit as the ray tracing and other fancy hoo haas get more implementation for non gaming usage in the future. The screen is just fantastic. Could be brighter in high light situations but hasnt bothered me yet. Most of the time I keep it in battery saving mode and for all but the most in demand digital sculpting tasks it flies. As far as fan noise, even when you put this thing in "turbo" (which is awesome they have it linked to a single button press) it is not that loud. In a quiet room, yes you hear it a bit but in everyday usage it is fine. Regular non turbo fan noise is no big deal, on the quiet side even. As I type this it is dead silent. Mind you if you were putting it through playing the highest demand games maybe it would be a bit more brutal on the internals and the fan would kick in like crazy. Hasnt gotten hot to the touch at all, maybe a little warm. All in all very happy with the investment. Will update if anything fails, but for the moment all is great and would highly recommend. I went with the rtx 2060 and 512 gb version, as well as the 144hz screen, and have no regrets.

Amazing laptop for gaming, performs really well and has great cooling. The build is good and sturdy, but it tends to very easily get fingerprints that aren't too easy to Clean. Although it does have a decent amount of flaws as well which I'm not sure how to fix: Acer problems, big to small:possibly all software issues alongside drivers Headphone jack doesn't properly work, turns on the camera with no audio being heard Sometimes the audio will start cracking TURBO light goes on by itself sometimes with turbo not being active, and than you can't turn it off either and the only way to do so is to go to predator sense and manually press auto to fix it Has some backlight bleed on the left topside of the screen which is hardly noticeable, and only affects you if your watching something with a black background. Randomly will say turbo mode is off when turbo was never on and the fans weren't running When you have a video on full-screen and you go away for a bit so the screen goes inactive it'll take a while for the screen to turn back on, but the audio will keep playin Overall I really love this laptop and I believe it greatly outweighs, totally reccomend if you can afford it without any compromise! 4/5
