Reviews for the Acer Predator Triton 500 PT515-52-70N3

Acer Predator Triton 500 laptop review: Superstar | Notebookcheck
Nvidia has recently updated its energy-saving Max-Q chips. The Predator Triton 500 from Acer is one of the first laptops to be equipped with a matching Super GPU. Read our review to find out about the performance offered by this high-end model.
100% Acer Predator Triton 500 review: A gaming laptop of excess in everything but screen
Source: T3 English
If you can afford it, we can see no reason to opt for anything else. Admittedly the screen, though fast, is the infinitesimally disappointing, but what Acer has managed to squeeze into the slimline form of the Predator Triton 500 is nothing short of remarkable.

Acer Predator Triton 500 (PT515-52) review – new hardware and a 300Hz display option in the same sleek outfit
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Apart from that, the laptop is pretty much the same unit as last year, so if you have the top tier unit from back then, it would make no sense upgrading to this device. However, if you are going after the Triton 500, upgrading from an older machine, definitely look for this year’s model, if it’s available in your region. Also, don’t forget to check the Lenovo Legion 7 (15), which has pretty much the same hardware, but offers much better cooling, thanks to its vapor chamber.

The Acer Predator Triton 500 delivers outstanding gaming performance thanks to its fearsome internals and buttery-smooth 300Hz G-Sync screen. Better yet, it pulls it off in an incredibly portable form factor. Just don't leave your charger at home.

Acer Predator Triton 500 review: A truly portable gaming powerhouse with 300Hz G-Sync

The Acer Predator Triton 500 impresses me more than any other laptop I’ve touched. It’s incredibly portable, more powerful than any lightweight rivals, and looks gorgeous. The high-contrast 300Hz G-Sync screen makes any game buttery-smooth. The Core i7-10750H pairs perfectly with Nvidia’s high-performance GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q for gaming. Acer also loaded this notebook with everything you could ask for, including plenty of ports and wireless connectivity.

Still the Triton 500 is a gaming laptop worth owning. You can get similarly priced systems from Razer, MSI and Alienware, which also perform well, but the Triton 500 holds its own, thanks to an ambitious screen and all-around solid specs. If you're looking to spend somewhere between $1,700 and $2,600 for a gaming laptop, the Triton 500 might be the right system, with the right design, at the right price.

85% Acer Predator Triton 500 review (2020 PT515-52 model – Core i7, RTX 2080 Super, 300 Hz screen)
Source: Ultrabook Review English Archive.org version
On a first look, the 2020 Predator Triton 500 is merely a hardware bump of the 2019 model, with 10th gen processor, Nvidia Super graphics, and a 300 Hz screen. But it actually improves on a few other aspects, with a slightly revamped keyboard that now offers per-key RGB control, a cleaner exterior design with fewer branding elements, better-optimized performance profiles, and improved thermals. Some of the best thermals in the class, for that matter. However, Acer still needs to price this competitively in order to make it a viable option in its premium segment and make buyers look past its quirks.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Super Max-Q: High-End laptop graphics card based on the TU104 chip with 3,072 shaders. Runs at reduced clock speeds compared to a laptop RTX 2080 Super to achieve a much lower power consumption. The TGP is specified between 80 and 90 Watts with different clock speeds.

With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


i7-10750H: A high-performance hexa-core processor designed for use in thicker laptops with room for better thermals. The Comet Lake-H processor is manufactured on the third-gen 14 nm Intel process and features a 24 EU UHD Graphics 630 iGPU clocked at 350 MHz to 1,150 MHz. The CPU cores run at 2.6 GHz (base clock speed) Boosting up to 5.0 GHz and the likely all-core Boost frequency is 4.3 GHz. Hyper-Threading is enabled, allowing two threads to run simultaneously on each core.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

Acer: In 1976, the company was founded in Taiwan under the name Multitech and was renamed Acer or Acer Group in 1987. The product range includes, for example, laptops, tablets, smartphones, desktops, monitors, TVs and computer peripherals. Since 2007, the group has merged with Gateway Inc. and Packard Bell, which also market their own laptop product lines.

Acer computers are designed for a variety of purposes, including ultrabooks for mobile use, gaming laptops for gamers, affordable options for everyday tasks, and 2-in-1 convertible laptops for versatility. Acer's product portfolio also includes tablets that offer portable computing and multimedia capabilities.


88%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
