ACER PREDATOR 21X INCH SOFTWARE
We’d like to note here that the bunded Acer Predator software is excellent, making it easy not just to overclock your components, but also set up the macro buttons on the keyboard and configure the LED lighting that decorates the Acer Predator 21 X. That’s still not quite a rock-solid 30 fps, though. With GPU overclocking set to ‘Turbo’, the Deus Ex benchmark at 2,560 x 1,080 resolution brought back a marginally better average of 21 fps, with highs of 28 fps. This makes both components work harder – and the software makes turning this feature on safe and easy. To get better results, you can turn on GPU and CPU overclocking using the Acer Predator software. This will be disappointing for anyone who thinks by paying $9,000 for a laptop will allow them to play the latest games at ultra graphical settings, and with high resolutions with framerates to match. In that resolution, the frame rates in the Deus Ex benchmark on ultra drop to 18.9 frames per second – which will be unplayable for many people. Another thing to note is that, while we ran the benchmarks in 1,920 x 1,080 resolution – for a better comparison with other laptops – you’ll actually be running games in 2,560 x 1,080 resolution to take advantage of the Predator 21 X’s ultra-wide screen. While the Acer Predator 21 X comes with two GTX 1080 graphics cards in SLI, the Asus ROG Zephyrus GX501 ‘only’ comes with one. However, it’s important to note that while we say ‘closest competitor’, the Asus ROG Zephyrus GX501 costs $2,699 or AU$3,659 (about £2,105), which is still less than a third of the price of the Acer Predator 21 X. While it doesn’t hit that magical 60 frames per second (fps) on Ultra, it still blows its closest competitor, the Asus ROG Zephyrus GX501 out of the water, as it managed 18 fps in the same tests.
ACER PREDATOR 21X INCH 1080P
At the standard 1080p resolution, it hit 38 frames per second for the incredibly taxing Deus Ex: Mankind Divided benchmark on Ultra settings. So, how does the Acer Predator 21 X perform? As you’d expect (and can see from our benchmark results), the Predator 21 X performs extremely well.
