Oh my goodness! This is a gigantic package, as you can probably tell. I mean, it's like
0:07
it is the largest gaming laptop ever inside. I can't believe I haven't checked out this laptop
0:15
sooner. The Acer Predator 21X. It's hard to even call this thing a laptop. It comes in a suitcase
0:21
It retails for 9,000 bucks! What type of LAN parties are you having
0:28
I don't know, I wanna be there. Send me an invite. Is there popcorn at LAN parties? I don't know, but there should be
0:34
Here we go. Oh my goodness. This is the Predator 21X, and as you probably guessed
0:43
Oh, it's heavy! Underneath this, all the accessories. two giant power bricks, two separate power cables, a wrist rest, a track pad which flips over into a number pad, some replaceable keycaps. Ooooooh! UGH
1:01
Yes, it's a laptop, technically you could put it on your lap, but really what it is, is it's like a portable game station
1:07
After all, this thing has two GTX 1080s in it. It's like a mobile gaming PC
1:14
Obviously you're gonna need double the juice and that's what you've got here. Now you can insert these things into this holder here Like that and that is your power setup Now obviously you gonna have a ton of ports on here because it is really a desktop replacement to usb3
1:33
Dolby audio badge over here some giant grills here to get rid of heat from the inside
1:39
HDMI to display ports Thunderbolt 3 wired Ethernet And then of course the two power ports for those power bricks two more USB 3's
1:48
It looks like some gold plated audio connectors for both microphone and headphones
1:53
Here we go. Ooooooh. That's insane! 2560x1080, ultra wide. And yes, it's curved
2:02
There's the curve. This thing has five fans in it. It's got two subwoofers on it, as you can see down here in the corners
2:09
Also, these laptops are numbered. You can see I have number 16 out of 300
2:14
300 out in the world. So it's a pretty exclusive club. exclusive club. That is a crazy place to sit. Oh my goodness. I mentioned this number pad here
2:23
before. On the other side is a trackpad. It just slots in right here. It's magnetic. You can put
2:28
the number pad in like that as well. Now the keyboard. Let's talk about the keyboard. This
2:33
thing is mechanical. Beneath each one of these keycaps is a cherry MX brown switch, which is
2:39
insane for a laptop. Although again, calling this thing a laptop doesn't really do it justice. Now
2:45
But this also has a cool feature called Killer Double Shot Pro Essentially it allows this port right here to work in conjunction with your Wi to prioritize gaming via this port and then all the other web functions over Wi
3:00
What do you say, folks? Should we power it up? That was a pretty quick boot up, as it should be
3:05
You can see the temperature, the CPU, the two GPUs, and of course, the system as well
3:10
Now, I'm going to go ahead and hit the max fan speed. Oh
3:14
Bit of a jet engine. Bit of a jet engine. You have two GTX 1080's so stop complaining okay
3:23
Today I think we've done that. So in a previous video, we showed you a setup with a really special chair
3:29
Oh my goodness! So there's a couple different settings on there through the Dolby menu
3:35
Dynamic, Movie, Music, Game, Voice and then Personalize where you can set the EQ yourself
3:41
For my videos, voice sounds the best I think. You're not allowed to sit here Jack
3:52
For a laptop it sounds good, but it ain't gonna rival like a dedicated setup
3:56
Chances are with a system like this, probably gonna want to use a headset into one of these jacks on the side
4:01
Steam time? We need to find those sinners. Head for the lumber mill
4:08
I'll be waiting. I'm sorry. I thought they got you. Come on Come on There a road out there We gonna to take it We going to head northeast Up ahead Watch it Take a move
4:27
Also has 120 hertz refresh rate. That's going to be really important, obviously, to gamers
4:32
It's got the i7-7820HK processor. The two GTX 1080s are in SLI, so they're working together
4:40
It's got 64GB of DDR4 memory. And then it's got a couple of 512GB SSDs, NVMe SSDs in RAID 0
4:51
And a 1TB 7200RPM hard drive. So yeah, that's Far Cry 5 and Ultra Everything
5:03
Very graphics intensive game, as you can tell from the gameplay. fills out the ultra-wide aspect ratio at 2560 by 1080
5:11
And you can see we still have plenty of VRAM left over. Holy smoke, 7.8 gigabytes
5:16
What I really think this thing aims to do is recreate a desktop experience in something that is sort of portable
5:24
I'm happy that something like this exists. If I walked into somebody's house and they just had this thing set up
5:29
how am I not going to ask some questions? $9,000, dual GTX 1080s, ultra-wide display
5:36
2560 by 1080. i7. Mechanical keyboard. Reversible trackpad. A dragon
