2018-08-08 15:48:22 UTCWhether you take it as an insult or proud nickname, there’s a reason “PC master race” has become so big in gaming culture. PCs easily outpace consoles in terms of power and have a wider variety of games available. Unfortunately, these tend to be a bit on the pricier side because of everything that comes included, from graphics cards to processors. But if you’re looking to make the jump from console play to the wild world of PCs, Amazon has just the laptop available for some heavy duty gaming.
The Acer Predator Triton 700 PT715-51-71W9 Ultra-Thin Gaming Laptop is on sale for $2299 on Amazon right now. This ends up saving you $400 on the listed price of $2699, which is a welcome discount on a laptop this powerful.
Under the hood, the Triton doesn’t skimp in any department. To start, it has an Intel i7-7700HQ processor to act as the foundation for the rest of the laptop and clues you in to how good the rest of the specs are. Working in tandem with the 32 GB of RAM is a 512 GB solid state drive for storage, making the speeds excellent for anything you want to do, especially gaming.
And on that front, there has to be an excellent graphics card, otherwise everything else is just for show. Thankfully, the GeForce GTX 1080 MAX-Q graphics card is perfect for gaming on the best graphical settings for most games. And considering the demands of games like Battlefield and CyberPunk 2077, having one of the newest and best graphics cards is a definite must.
Across the board, Acer has delivered an excellent companion for the gamer who wants to take their PUBG sessions on the go. High speeds, good storage, and an excellent graphics card is everything you need. If this sounds like the laptop for you, get it from Amazon on sale while you can.
