Acer's new gaming laptop: Predator Triton 700

-
Here Acers new predator Triton 700 is all about fresh elegant design and gaming and it is quite affordable.


 The sixth largest PC maker in the world is still selling traditional laptops like the Swift 1 and Swift 3 with more subdued designs, but it's making a bigger push with its Predator-branded gaming laptops.

At its annual global press conference Thursday, Acer global CEO Jason Chen said the company's Predator 21 X behemoth — a laptop with a 21-inch curved screen, mechanical keyboard, eye-tracking sensors, dual Nvidia GTX 1080 GPUs, and more — has been the most talked-about laptop in the last sixth months, despite its unconventional design.

That's not surprising. The Predator 21 X is seriously bonkers, and the fact that it starts at $9,000 and comes in a massive Pelican case only makes it more so.

But not everyone can afford the $9K Predator 21 X. Nor does everyone need a machine that might as well be called Laptop Overkill.

Acer's new Predator Triton 700 is a more affordable option that borrows much of the Predator 21 X's zaniness, without taking things too overboard.

Let's start with the design. It's cut out of aluminum, and it measures 0.75 inches thick — just a hair thicker than the 14-inch Razer Blade. It might not be as thin as the new MacBook Pros (0.61 inch), but it's thin by gaming-laptop standards. Its 5.7-pound weight is also a little on the heavy side if you're used to sub-3-pound Ultrabooks, but this ain't no laptop for weaklings.

The 15.6-inch full HD resolution IPS matte screen is lovely and supports Nvidia G-Sync for connecting to an external gaming monitor.

I can confirm the mechanical keyboard is very clicky and satisfying; gamers definitely love the keyboard, despite its island-style keys. Plus, the cool ice-blue backlighting system is just hot.

The strangest thing about the Triton 700 is the location of its trackpad: above the keyboard. And because it's covered with Gorilla Glass, you can't actually click on the trackpad. It's a very odd thing to not have a place to rest your palms on a gaming laptop, and the weirdly integrated trackpad, while a good conversation starter, might not be very practical for any gaming.

As for performance, the Triton 700 has plenty of it. It's powered by the latest seventh-gen Intel Core processors, Nvidia GeForce 10-Series graphics, two NVMe PCIe SSDs, and up to 32GB of DDR4 2,400MHz RAM. To boost performance and keep the machine from frying itself, Acer's incorporated its AeroBlade 3D fan.

The gaming laptop's also tricked out with all the ports you'd ever need, unlike other laptops. You get two USB 3.0 ports, one USB 2.0 port, one HDMI 2.0 port, one DisplayPort, one Gigabit Ethernet port, and "Killer DoubleShot Pro" networking which intelligently prioritizes the fastest connection (either Wi-Fi or Ethernet) and sends all traffic over the fastest option.

A good gaming laptop leaves a lasting first impression and the Triton 700 absolutely does in every way, from design to performance. It's beautiful a very different kind of way. If a MacBook Pro is a Porsche, then the Triton 700 is a Lambo. Its gamer looks won't be for everyone, but that's OK because Acer doesn't care about winning casual coffee shop hipsters.

Best of all, the Triton 700 costs a fraction of the Predator 21 X: It starts at $2,999 when it comes out in North America in August.

Starting today, if you ask Google Assistant on your phone, Chromebook, or Google Home device “Where’s Waldo?” you’ll actually get an answer.  This is for April Fool’s Day this year, Google has teamed up with Waldo, who will be sharing his location with Maps users all week. To see where he is you’ll need to use the latest version of the Google Maps app on your phone (update that now!), or Google Map’s desktop version. To start your search for Waldo, tap his face when you see him waving from the side of the screen. When you do, you’ll have the opportunity to search for the iconic character place all over the world. Google is also rolling out the desktop version, so it if doesn’t work now, try again in a few hours.

New 2018 Mclaren 720S:Most Beautiful Design

-
Image
The 720S is a beautiful, sleek GT car, possibly the most aerodynamically exciting road car to come from the U.K. since the Jaguar E-type 56 years ago. My main criticism of volume-production McLarens — all of which until now used the same basic 3.8 liter V-8 engines and carbon-fiber monocoques — has been the gaping holes in the body sides required to provide enough cooling for the hot sections within the outer envelope. This new design has a beautifully simplified outer form and a complex internal-airflow management system that permits more power than any modern McLaren has enjoyed up to now. And the company achieved it without blatant air passages seen on the racing-oriented Ford GT or the road version of the Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus SCG003 GT. Most recent high-performance cars have had some kind of aerodynamic covering over their headlamps. The 720S does outline a large lighting area, so cleverly shaped and integrated into the whole that it convinces you there’s a cover. But
