If you are looking for a powerful and sleek gaming laptop, you might want to check out the new Predator Triton 16 (PT16-51) from Acer, a machine that combines high-performance hardware with a stunning 16-inch display and a slim design.
The Predator Triton 16 is powered by the latest 13th Gen Intel Core processors (up to Core i9, supported by a new hybrid core architecture with a 5.4 GHz max turbo frequency) and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU (along with NVIDIA DLSS 3 and its bundle of Max-Q technology features for optimized ray tracing and performance across the board), delivering smooth gameplay and fast multitasking.
It also features up to 32 GB of DDR5 RAM memory and up to 2TB of PCIe Gen4 SSD storage, ensuring you have enough space for all your games and files.
The laptop’s display is a 16-inch (16:10) WQXGA 2560 x 1600 IPS panel, which offers a wide viewing angle and vivid colors. It also supports a 240Hz refresh rate and has a peak brightness of 500 nits and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and supports NVIDIA Advanced Optimus and NVIDIA G-SYNC — making it ideal for both gaming and content creation.
Bringing a slim and lightweight design, the machine measures only 19.9 mm (0.78 inches) thin and weighs 2.4 kg (5.29 pounds). It has a metal chassis with an anodized finish and a backlit Predator logo on the lid. The laptop also has a four-zone RGB keyboard with per-key lighting and anti-ghosting, as well as a large glass touchpad with integrated buttons.
In order to keep gamers ready for battle, the laptop utilizes advanced thermal features, prominently featuring a dual-fan system equipped with custom-engineered 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D metal fans. Taking it a step further, the Predator Triton 16 incorporates Acer’s innovative Vortex Flow technology, which includes dedicated heat pipes and exhaust vents to effectively cool the internal components.
The application of liquid metal thermal grease on the CPU enhances heat emission, ensuring the laptop operates at its highest performance levels. A cool extra is that Acer’s PredatorSense software allows you to monitor and adjust various settings — such as fan speed, lighting, overclocking, and more.
The Predator Triton 16 has a range of ports and connectivity options, including Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C), HDMI 2.1, USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A (two ports), MicroSD Card reader, audio jack, and a Kensington lock slot. It also has Intel Killer DoubleShot Pro (Ethernet RJ45 E2600 + WiFi 6E 1675i). A fingerprint reader with Windows Hello support is included, which provides added protection and accessibility.
The Predator Triton 16 is expected to be available in North America and EMEA (Europe, Middle-east and Africa) in September 2023 starting at USD $1,799.99 / EUR 2,299.
