If you are a gamer, this is the laptop to look out for. Announced at the global Acer event, the Acer Predator 17 X is an update to their Predator 17 model, with better and more powerful hardware installed.

With the new Predator 17 X, users have the option to fit it with the Intel Core i7-6820HK processor – a very overclocking friendly processor. It also can be equipped with a desktop-grade graphics chip, the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 GPU with 8GB of VRAM to drive the 17.3 inch Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 pixel) IPS display.

It is not a lightweight machine, weighing in at 4.55KG. However, it compensates by having a wealth of connectivity options such as HDMI, USB 3.1, and USB type C. Plus, it has a customizable backlit keyboard with RGB LEDs, so you can party while you game.

The Predator 17 X is expected to be on store shelves by May, first in China, and followed by other markets. It will start from USD 2799 (~RM 10971).
