Acer
Predator G6 and G3
Acer
unveiled the Predator G6 and G3, a truly fearsome pair of rigs decked out with
a chassis intended to evoke battle armor. Beneath that robust exterior, you’ll
find a 6th-gen Intel Core processor, GTX graphics and up to 64 GB of DDR4 system
memory. The G3 is set to be priced at $849 when it releases in December, while
details on the G6 are set to be circulated ahead of its launch next month.
A
system such as that is begging to be paired with a similarly potent display,
and Acer’s own offerings may well turn out to be the perfect partner. The XB1
series is comprised of a 27-inch model that features a ZeroFrame edge-to-edge
design and a 28-inch variant with a speedy gray to gray response time of just
1ms, allowing it to accurately display fast movements without any ghosting.
Both
displays make use of NVIDIA G-Sync technology, and are fitted with a 4K UHD
panel. The 27-inch model will give users the option of swapping out the
standard 3,840x2,160 panel for a 2,560x1,440 IPS alternative. These
monitors will be available in North America from November, with prices starting
from US$ 799.99.
These
displays are accompanied by the jaw-dropping Z35, a 35-inch 21:9 curved display
that once again boasts 4K UHD panels and and G-Sync technology. The monitor
will use NVIDIA Ultra Low Motion Blur to deliver a pixel-perfect picture, and
is decked out with DTS sounds, two 9 watt speakers and Acer TrueHarmony
technology to please audiophiles. The Z35 launches in the US this December at a
price of US$ 1199.99.
