Acer has updated its Predator Orion 5000 series gaming desktops, which are geared for gamers that demand high performance and the possibility to upgrade in the future. The new Predator Orion 3000 series gaming PCs, an OLED Predator monitor, and an extra pair of IPS monitors with VESA Display HDRTM 1000-level images and high refresh rates were also presented today.
The Predator X32 gaming monitor also won a CES Innovation Award in the “Computer Peripherals & Accessories” category, according to Acer.
The Predator Orion 5000 combines an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 GPU with a 12th Gen Intel® Core i7 processor (on an Intel H670 chipset) to deliver outstanding frame rates and exceptional gaming experiences, even in the most graphically demanding games. ARGB-infused Predator FrostBlade 2.0 fans support the system’s powerful internals, which include Windows 11, 64GB of 4,000 MHz DDR5 RAM, and up to 2 TB of M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSDs. This series of fans uses a static pressure design to maximise airflow while reducing vibration and noise with sealed bearings and a novel arc-shaped design around the fins’ ends.
All of this cutting-edge electronics and ARGB flair are visible through a transparent side panel, which is also EMI-compliant, protecting users and their peripherals from potential electromagnetic interference. DIYers will like the chassis’ tool-free design, which enables for quick access to the computer’s internals—for example, to change the CPU’s air cooler to a 240 mm liquid cooler—as well as its versatile configuration options, which maximise future upgradability.
DTS:X® Ultra allows gamers to turn any set of headphones or speakers into a high-end 360-degree sound system, while Killer E3100G 2.5G Ethernet Controller and Intel Wi-Fi 6E reduce latency for more dependable internet. Four USB ports (3x Type-A and 1x Type-C) and audio jacks are conveniently located on the top of the chassis, while several more on the rear of the tower conceal infrequently-moved cables.
The Predator Orion 3000 series is designed for gamers seeking the best experience that a mid-tower rig can deliver, with up to a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processor (on an Intel B660 chipset) and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 GPU: gamers who want to max settings in their favourite games and dive into streaming or video editing with little to no performance impact. The hardware is topped off with up to 64GB of 3,200MHz DDR4 memory and 2 TB of PCIe NVMe SSD storage, all of which offer lightning-fast gaming activity. If 2 TB of SSD storage isn’t enough, 6 TB of SATA3 HDD storage is included as well.
The Predator Orion 3000 Series has the same appealing design as the Orion 5000, with darker glass, plastic, metal, and mesh wrapped around it, as well as an optional transparent EMI-compliant side screen. Three Predator FrostBladeTM 2.0 fans, each measuring 92x92mm, enhance airflow and keep the insides cool. Additionally, the front and rear fans’ hubs have RGB LEDs integrated right into them, which can be manipulated using the PredatorSense software.
Players can clear away online competition with an Intel Killer E2600 Ethernet controller, Intel Wi-Fi 6E AX211 (Gig+), and Control Center 2.0, while DTS:X Ultra lets them experience their favourite movies, music, and games with real-world spatial sound.
The new Predator X32 and X32FP gaming monitors have been meticulously designed to strike a balance between the performance that gamers want and the visual brilliance that content creators require. Both of these UHD (3,840×2,160) 32-inch monitors have VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certifications, IPS panels with 576-zone mini LED local dimming, Delta E2 colour accuracy, and 99 percent coverage of the AdobeRGB colour gamut. As a result, they produce dazzlingly bright and fluid pictures, which are critical for tracking moving objects across the screen.
The Predator X32 takes advantage of NVIDIA G-SYNC®excellent ULTIMATE’s performance to produce lifelike HDR and ultra-low latency, resulting in a better gaming experience. NVIDIA Reflex is a set of GPU, G-SYNC, and software technologies that assess and reduce system latency (also known as click-to-display delay) in online games, allowing players to collect targets faster, respond faster, and boost aim precision. This display also received a CES Innovation Award.
The Predator X32 FP features an HDMI 2.1 connector, allowing gamers can experience 4K gaming on both PC and consoles. It’s the quickest 4K monitor on the market, with a refresh rate of 165 Hz (overclock) and a reaction time of 1 ms. AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology improves the gaming experience even more by supporting HDR and offering buttery smooth images and reduced latency even in graphically demanding sequences. A USB Type-C port with 90W of power delivery is also available.
The Predator CG48 gaming monitor is large enough to replace a TV and delivers players 48 inches of pure 4K brilliance, even at 138 Hz refresh rates. Players can enjoy a next-level gaming experience even on consoles thanks to HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4, while four USB 3.2 ports and a USB Type-C port provide plenty of capacity for any additional peripherals. Following that, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology and a response time of up to 0.1ms (G-to-G) enable for some of the quickest 4K gaming: Each AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology display is engineered to deliver a fluid, variable refresh rate (VRR) gaming experience with less tearing, stuttering, blemishes, and flicker.
The OLED display on the Predator CG48 has a 135K:1 contrast ratio, HDR10, and 98 percent DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage, making it one of the most spectacular visual experiences currently available. Individual pixels on OLED monitors can be turned off, allowing for true blacks to be duplicated. They also don’t require backlighting, which improves the monitors’ overall efficiency.
