In addition to the latest processors and GPUs this year we've made updates to the Predator Triton 500 and the Acer Nitro 5. In particular, we have implemented a new thermal technology that keeps devices at low temperatures so that gamers can enjoy the performance of the latest silicon technology.
Predator Triton 500
Equipped with the latest 2080th Generation Intel Core processors for high performance notebooks and with GPUs up to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER or 500 SUPER with Max-Q design, the Predator Triton 7,5 is capable of tackling the toughest challenges. Despite the power, productivity is guaranteed up to XNUMX hours of battery life, making this notebook an excellent choice for pro gamers. The 300Hz IPS panel is an industry-leading component, delivering a 3ms overdrive response time and letting you enjoy the action in smooth, brilliant detail, with 100% sRGB color gamut coverage and wide viewing angles. NVIDIA G-SYNC technology eliminates tearing and minimizes lag.
Predator Triton 500 is equipped with a Killer Wi-Fi 6 AX1650i wireless controller, an E3100G Ethernet Controller and Control Center 2.0 to raise the quality of the network connection to new levels, providing critical applications with all the necessary bandwidth. All this power is packed into a slim all-metal chassis that's 17,9mm thick and weighs just 2,1kg, thin-bezel displays and an 81% screen-to-body ratio. The notebook supports up to 32GB of DDR4 memory and up to 2TB of NVMe SSD storage in RAID 0.
Predator Triton 500 comes with the technology Acer Vortex Flow, a new design that features three custom designed fans strategically placed in the chassis, which work in concert to increase airflow and reduce noise. Its action is further enhanced by CoolBoost technology, which increases the speed of the fans to improve performance. Gamers can monitor device temperature and adjust fan speed via the PredatorSense UI.
The innovative cooling system of this notebook is also guaranteed by the all-metal fans AeroBlade 3D 45th generation, specially designed to maximize airflow and reduce noise. Serrated edges and curved fins allow for an increase in airflow of up to 500%. By adding five heat pipes to the setup, the 2020 edition Predator Triton 33 manages to snatch 2019% better thermal performance than its XNUMX predecessor.
Acer Nitro 5
The Acer Nitro 5 is equipped with a 7GHz 5th Generation Intel Core iXNUMX processor and graphics options that include a GeForce RTX 2060 or the latest GeForce GTX 1650Ti or 1650 GPUs. It features up to two M.2 PCle SSDs and a 1TB HDD1 for storage and up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM split across two user-upgradeable DIMM slots . Available with a 15,6-inch FHD IPS display, gamers will especially appreciate the 2020 model's significantly improved graphics. Models with 144Hz or 120Hz1 refresh rate and 3ms response times allow for artifact-free gameplay graphics, which comes alive on the 300 nit panel with 72% NTSC coverage.
Acer Nitro 5 offers several innovative thermal solutions to maximize cooling efficiency even under heavy loads. It features a dual-fan cooling system that takes advantage of strategically placed intake and exhaust ports, and four air intakes. It guarantees an overall improvement in thermal performance of 25% compared to the 2019 model. Efficiency is further optimized by the CoolBoost technology, which increase the fan speed by 10% and CPU / GPU cooling by 9%. New to this year's model is Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 (802.11ax) and Killer Ethernet E2600 connectivity, which increase network stability and performance, allowing gamers to take full advantage of thermal enhancements.
