The Predator Helios 500 (PH517-52) boasts up to an overclockable 11th Gen Intel Core i9 processor, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU and 64 GB of DDR4 3200 MHz memory, giving players more than enough power to take on all of the latest titles, while a pair of PCIe NVMe SSDs in RAID 0 and one SATA HDD means that the notebook has plenty of space for the next generation of games, too.

COOLING PERFECTED

All of this power is supported by a suite of premium cooling technology, including Acer PowerGem, a custom-engineered technology made from a metal-alloy polymer that sits on top of the CPU and serves to distribute the heat it generates throughout the device. Acer’s Vortex Flow technology leverages two fans, including a 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D Fan, to redirect airflow to critical components and boost performance during heavy gaming sessions.

It features a 17.3-inch display with 4K Mini LED 120 Hz powered by AUO AmLED technology that supports Full-array local dimming for the best colour saturation and contrast. The HDR comes alive as the 512 backlight zones make it possible to reach VESA’s DisplayHDR 1000 specification. Games, movies, and whatever’s on-screen – all benefit from OLED-like levels of contrast and brightness.

ALL LIT UP with new WASD

With PredatorSense, users can activate the Predator Pulsar and customize the light cluster to personalize their keyboard through per-key RGB backlighting. In addition, the WASD key assembly can be enhanced with Acer’s patented MagForce keys, both of which feature a MagTek mechanical switch to turn the keypress function into a joystick mechanism. This allows gamers to gradually increase pressure on the key for precise control over the character’s / car’s speed – from the initial (0.8 mm), press all the way to full speed at 100% (3 / 3.1 mm) actuation.
