  2. Intel Core 7th Gen i7 Intel Core 7th Gen i7- -7700HQ 7700HQ Acer’s Predator Helios 300 is supplied with one of thebest processors you can get best processors you can get for the money – the Intel i7 Intel i7- -7700HQ 7700HQ is a must have for every desktop PC gamer, and it’s quite a rarity to see it outfitted on a gaming laptop. Essentially, it boasts a remarkable level of performance, excelling in numerous fields of performance, so let’s see what you can expect. SIMPLY PUT, INTEL CORE I7-7700HQ IS ONE OF THE LATEST LETTERS IN GAMING TECH INDUSTRY. This marvelous processor is extremely powerful extremely powerful, but it certainly isn’t cheap.

  3. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Gamers yearn for good graphics, and most desktop PC gamers (especially those who’re into competitive gaming) rely heavily on a good picture. The situation is drastically different when it comes to gaming laptops, as what players wanted to be “good” now has to be “nearly-perfect” or better. The reason for this is quite simple –“desktop” gamers usually maintain a healthy distance between themselves and their monitors, while “laptop” gamers tend to be a bit closer, leading us to the conclusion that smaller details could be spotted more easily this way. That’s just one of the reasons why Acer went with theGeForce GTX 1060–it’s simply a bit better than similar models within the same price range.  The usual Pascal GPU architecture Pascal GPU architecture is complemented by 1280 Nvidia CUDA Cores (note that 3GB editions come with 1152)  6 gigabytes of GDDR5 frame buffer memory.  The peak memory speed of this amazing graphics card is estimated at 8Gbps, with the actual boost clock being 1708 Mhz and  the relative clock spanning to 1.4 times more. Overall, we’d describe this graphics card as remarkably good, especially on Acer Pro Helios 300 – it works like a charm, providing nothing short of perfectly rendered, lightning-fast frames and imaging, allowing for a complete gaming experience to take place. DDR4 RAM DDR4 RAM Built for comfort and efficiency, the DDR4 RAM is somewhat plain when compared to other features, but don’t let that dissuade you –you don’t need extra power in this sphere.

  4. Some hard-core gamers might not be satisfied with this feature, but you always have the option of upgrading your actual RAM, but be mindful of the fact that this CPU setting can support up to the maximum of 2400 MHz, which means that everything beyond will be automatically clocked to that digit. Backlit Keyboard Backlit Keyboard Again, we’re looking at a plain, yet exceptionally handy feature – the backlit keyboard. The standard “W-A-S-D” keys glow brightly red, greatly helping true gamers who are prone to spending nights conquering dungeons and shooting bad guys. The overall layout of Acer Predator Helios 300 keyboard is every bit as plain as your average keyboard, but with the exception of conveniently mid-sized keys that allow smaller hands to reach certain buttons with greater ease. Long Long- -lasting battery lasting battery As you’ve probably figured, most laptop gamers use their engine in a similar way to the actual method of operation of a standard desktop PC – on a desk, plugged inside a power source, lest the battery fail. Acer Predator Helios 300 provides means to avoid uncomfortable leg or back crunching, as the battery battery may last up to seven straight hours may last up to seven straight hours once fully charged.

Performance Of Helios 300 Performance Of Helios 300 NOWADAYS, LAPTOPS ARE MADE IN SUCH A WAY SO THAT THEY CAN GO TOE TO TOE WITH THEIR DESKTOP COUNTERPARTS, AND ACER PREDATOR HELIOS 300 IS NOT AN EXCEPTION. This model is a powerhouse that can easily match the performance of a high-end PC, all things considered.

Last, but not least, there are a lot of package options at your disposal, allowing for supreme versatility – just a couple of bucks extra will grant you the benefits of the “game drive bundle” and “Mixed reality headset”. Pricing and standard package variations Pricing and standard package variations First of all, the Acer Predator Helios 300 is a “high-end” gaming laptop –it doesn’t come cheap.

  6. In fact, the only “bad” thing is that you’ll have to cash out a large sum of money, but, rest assured, your gaming needs and demands will be met in a glance. The standard “solo-laptop” isn’t a package, and it can be purchased for approximately a grand, but the extra packages cost little in comparison. The “good” and “bad” about Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop The “good” and “bad” about Acer Predator Helios 300 Gaming Laptop There are plenty of benefits Acer’s Predator Helios offers, but there are also a couple of minor drawbacks that you should be aware of. However, as we’ve previously mentioned, the pros greatly outshine the cons, as you can see in the section below: Pros: Pros:  The overall performance of Acer’s Predator Helios 300 is truly remarkable. The features it comes outfitted with provide a great balance between power and speed  “Exquisitely Beautiful” would be the words that would best describe the outward appearance of the Predator Helios  This laptop is pretty versatile, and it can be used for any number of things, ranging from simple editorial tasks, over heavy-duty programming, to latest games  The materials used in the construction process of Acer Predator Helios 300 are highly durable. The body is made of ultra-sturdy aluminum that’s capable of withstanding quite a punishment  Superb-quality thermal design easily ventilates the key points, preventing overheating problems  Highly conventional backlit keyboard features small, relatively bright lights on the crucial keys  Great cooling is complemented by nearly-noiseless method of operation, both when the laptop is operating and when idle Cons: Cons: Page6  The graphics come with a bit outdated drivers, and the process is sketchy, to say the least.

  7. The thermal design provides great ventilation, but you what you see is not what you get. Namely, there are numerous back vents, and only some of them are open  Even though the external components are made of high-quality aluminum, the internal parts are plastic, and they tend to “attract” oil a bit too much for comfort Conclusion Conclusion Finding a good laptop is extremely hard these days, given that the market is extremely huge (and that’s an understatement) and most high-end models come with a relatively similar configuration. On top of that, certain brands offer “premium” packages and discounts to compensate for clearly invisible drawbacks, and we can safely assume that no laptop is “perfect”. However, upon close study of Acer Predator Helios 300, we’ve discovered that it might just be an exception from the aforementioned “rule”. This laptop excels in numerous fields of performance, ranging from plain durability, over supreme versatility, to the exceptional feature outfit. Firstly, its off-the-charts performance is something to marvel at, and secondly, the minor drawbacks concerning the firmware are easily compensated for by the heavily accentuated benefits it offers. We hope that you’ve found this review as helpful, and we wish you all the luck with your Acer Predator Helios 300!
