Devouring the competition CPU: up to Intel Core i7-9750H | Graphics: up to Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 | RAM: 16GB 32GB | Screen: 15.6" Full HD (1920 x 1080) 16:9 IPS | Storage: up to 1TB SSD Extremely powerful Beautiful display Surprisingly long battery life Kind of expensive Flimsy lid

The Acer Predator Triton 500 isnt exactly inexpensive. However, considering that its one of the best Acer laptops 2020 has on offer not to mention,
among the most powerful gaming machines its certainly worth breaking that piggy bank. Its packed with 8th and 9th generation Intel core chips as well
as Nvidia RTX cards, which gives it enough juice to handle the most processor-intensive and graphics-heavy AAA games. The lid is a bit flimsy,
but that wont have any impact on its overall performance. You just have to be a tad more careful lugging it around.

Even better, it boasts a keyboard thats satisfying to use, a decent selection of ports, a bright, crisp screen and a sleek design youll find in more expensive models. It may be held back by the absence of a touchscreen and a fingerprint reader, but those dont exactly affect its overall performance. And, that amazing budget price tag single-handedly makes up for everything it doesnt do.

A desktop-bashing portable gaming beast CPU: 9th-generation Intel Core i7 i9 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 2080 | RAM: 16GB 32GB | Screen: 17.3" Full HD (1920 x 1080) 16:9 IPS | Storage: 512GB 1TB SSD Epic specification Outrageous cooling hardware Huge performance Ridiculous noise levels The overclocking aint all that Barely a laptop at all

Premium gaming laptops are known to drain your bank account, and the Acer Predator Helios 700 is no exception. However, youll be happy to know that its cheaper than its top rivals with similar specs, saving you a couple of
hundred dollars so you can buy your dream gaming keyboard or mouse. With that price tag, youre also getting a high-end 360 surround sound system, Wifi 6, per-key RBG integration, the PredatorSense Key and a display with 144Hz refresh rate. Perhaps the one feature thats most worthy of a mention,
however, is its thermal performance that involves a sliding keyboard and extreme cooling.

With a mid-range price tag, it's easy not to expect a lot from the Acer Spin 5. But youd be surprised the Acer Spin 5 actually delivers a decent performance, combining it with a nice design and a decent battery life that will last you a while without charging, for the price. It cuts down the price with a subpar display and not-so-good speakers, that those are a small price to pay to get through most computing and productivity tasks without issues
and without paying a hefty sum.

The best Chromebook for professionals right now, the Acer Chromebook 714 boasts a premium, seriously solid chassis that is just the ticket for the business-oriented bunch. Its not especially stylish, sadly, but that decent performance and strong battery life makes up for its lack of fashion sense. And, arent those all the more important if youre meeting with clients, tackling paperwork and balancing the books all day? In fact, the quad-core processor is good enough for light content creation tasks, making it a boon for those starting out in the content creation industry as well.
