The Acer Predator Triton 17 X features a leading CPU and GPU combo with a level of performance few gaming laptops can attain. However, you'll want to keep the power cable nearby as the battery leaves much to be desired, and it's far from the sleekest chassis you'll find in a portable powerhouse.

It’s always hard to talk about value with a laptop this expensive, but when you look at the spec, the design and that spectacular scene, the Acer Predator Triton 17 X (2023) does add up. If you’re more focused on performance than anything else, there are more affordable options out there. The Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 with an RTX 4080 can be found for well under the three-grand mark. The Medion Erazer X40 Beast will cost you just over three grand the other way and comes with a similar core spec. But if you’re looking for the whole, awesome, mega-screen, ray-tracing, max detail settings at high frame rates package, the Predator Triton 17 X is a little short of astounding, and deserving of a place in the pantheon of PC gaming dream machines.

The Acer Predator Triton 17X is an incredibly capable 17-inch gaming laptop benefiting from the tremendous power of its Intel i9-13900HX CPU and RTX 4090 GPU. But that’s not all… this laptop is also as tough as nails, has an excellent port selection, and an absurdly fine QHD+ mini-LED display with 240Hz refresh rate.

One thing can be said for sure. This notebook is extremely powerful. However, we have to say two very important things. First – its RTX 4090 (175W) doesn’t really run at 175W – more like 140W. And second – it performs more like an RTX 4080 (175W) – the one we saw in the Lenovo Legion Pro 7 (16″, 2023). What is really important in the case of the Predator Triton 17X is its overly complex build. In order to achieve such a thin chassis, Acer has flipped the motherboard upside down, flatted every possible surface, and contacted the College of Winterhold. It is accessed by both the NVIDIA driver and within BIOS. Interestingly, Acer has omitted such a function from the Predator Sense app – similar to the Nitro series, where you could only enable it through BIOS.
