It’s been a while coming, but Acer’s new line of PCs for gamers is finally being introduced to the Saudi market through Jarir Bookstore. The Acer Aspire Predator made its international debut back in September. Two words that define the Acer Aspire Predator are “immediacy” and “performance.” The Predator is ready to play the most demanding games straight out of the box. The series began with the G7200, then there was the G7700 and now the company has launched the G7710.

The newest addition to the Aspire Predator line, the G7710, harnesses top of the line processor, graphics and memory technologies — the Intel Core i7 processor Extreme Edition, up to 12 GB of DDR3 1066 MHz memory and a choice of 2-way ATI CrossFireX graphics for an intense gaming experience. Additionally, a Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium sound card, second Generation Dolby Home Theater audio enhancement and a Blu-ray Disc optical drive generate an immersive digital surround sound environment.

Customizable processor and graphics overclocking in the Predator via the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility (IXTU) unleashes above-normal performance, making this gaming machine run beyond its limits. The two-part liquid cooling design maintains cool system performance and prevents hardware meltdown.

Four 3.5” easy-swap HDD bays allow storage capacity expansion up to 4 TB with four large Serial ATA hard disks, each up to 1 TB, offering huge storage for content creation; faster system boot speed; and quick multimedia applications loading. Dual LAN technology utilizes teaming to link a pair of Gigabit Ethernet connections for blazing file transfers, higher system performance with lower CPU utilization, and non-stop failover connectivity support.

With five USB 2.0 ports in front, another six in the rear, two rear-mounted eSATA ports and a multi-in-one card reader supporting all the latest media formats, gamers can capitalize on greater expansion opportunities and bring multimedia devices together with ease.

Any Predator, from the G7200 to the G7710, offers more speed and power than most other PCs. This is not a machine designed to handle the mundane digital chores of modern life. It’s the stuff of a boy’s dreams, but it takes a man’s wallet to bring one home.
