Acer’s New Predator Laptops & Desktops Lead The Charge With AI-Enhanced Gaming

Some companies that will be present at Computex 2025 haven’t waited for the event and have made big announcements beforehand. Such is the case of Acer, which showed off its latest lineup of gaming laptops for 2025. We’re talking about Acer’s Predator Triton 14 AI laptop, the Predator Helios Neo 14 AI laptop, and a revamped Predator Orion 3000 gaming desktop. They’re all rocking the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series GPUs, promising a significant leap in gaming and creative performance.

Acer Predator Triton 14 AI, a slim, powerful and versatile laptop for 2025

The star of the show might just be the Predator Triton 14 AI. This sleek 14.5-inch laptop manages to pack some serious heat, but in a good way. It’s powered by up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU. But here’s a tech tidbit that caught our eye: it’s the industry’s first laptop to use graphene thermal interface material on the CPU. This fancy material helps keep things cool under pressure, which is crucial when you’re pushing those high frame rates or rendering complex projects.

But the Triton 14 AI isn’t just about raw power. Acer has also loaded it with premium features aimed at creative pros. We’re talking about a Calman Verified OLED display with touch support for vibrant and accurate visuals. There’s also a Corning Gorilla Glass touchpad that offers haptic feedback and even supports a stylus. As a Copilot+ PC, it also unlocks some cool AI-powered features like live translations and AI image generation within Windows. With up to 32 GB of RAM and 2 TB of speedy storage, this laptop is ready for anything you throw at it.

Predator Helios Neo 14 AI for portable high-level gaming

For gamers who are always on the move, the Predator Helios Neo 14 AI is looking like a fantastic option. This 14.5-inch laptop doesn’t skimp on performance, offering up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and the same powerful NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU. The visuals will be stunning on its 2.8K OLED display with a super-fast 0.2 ms response time.

Acer has also made sure it stays cool during intense gaming sessions with their advanced 5th Gen AeroBlade technology. Plus, there’s a customizable RGB logo on the lid and a three-zone RGB keyboard.

Predator Orion 3000: Desktop gaming gets an upgrade

The Predator Orion 3000 gaming desktop is getting a refresh with a new chassis design and the latest internals. You can configure it with up to an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. The new chassis looks sleek with tempered glass side panels and customizable RGB lighting. It’s also designed for good airflow and easy upgrades down the line.
