That is a thing that you need to answer by yourself. Overall, yeah it is a great gaming laptop. 2 USB 3.1, external GPUs are out of question. Since the Helios 500 doesn't have a Thunderbolt connection or Gen. All things considered, I think you can play all games in high details for the next few years. ![]() Since it is equipped with high-end components, I won't talk about battery life or anything similar. This laptop, if it is okay to call this a laptop, is 4 kg. You can play all the games in high/ultra resolution, maybe some demanding titles will have a hard time running in 4K, but the rest will be no problem. Well, if there was at least a GTX 1080 GPU, it would have been better, but yeah, this is what we have. Overall, everything about this laptop is at top levels. With the 1070 it is possible to get above 60 fps in 4K, but will it stay that way next year? In most of today's games the CPU is not the bottleneck, it is actually always the GPU. But it is a questionable purchase since a new GPU is coming out, which is especially thought for 4K. It is not because the 1070 GPU is not good. Will you regret your decision when they arrive? Since you won't be able to change your GPU, in just a few months of time you will be missing out lots of opportunities. Do you know why? Because Nvidia's Turing cards are on the horizon. 32 GB RAM, 4K screen, 512 GB PCIe SSD are just nice touches. Is the rest too important? Well, not much. Equipped with i9 8950HK and 1070 8 GB GPU. ![]() In our case, I have one of the newest Predator models. This makes more sense for mobile desktop replacements, but you give up your option for upgrades, mostly for processor and GPU. Well, of course when you need to carry a desktop, then you have to carry a monitor as well. Single Review, online available, Short, Date: Īcer Predator Helios 500 PH517-51-93LSI always question the existence of 17.3 screen gaming laptops. Positive: High performance good price powerful hardware nice display. Test Acer Predator Helios 500: Výkon GTX 1080 za cenu GTX 1070 ![]()
