There are four lighting zones outside of the keyboard: the logo, the light bars, the power button, and the Slide Module. The speed and direction of several effects can be adjusted as well.
If you hit the $ key while it's illuminated, gold coins flow out like a slot machine.Īnyway, you get the point. The Hedge effect bounces two walls of light back and forth from either end of the keyboard. The Snake effect creates a LED snake which trails its way through the keyboard. The Neon effect keeps the brightness static while cycling through the RGB spectrum. The Afterglow effect illuminates keys when you press them. The Breathing effect slowly pulses the lights on and off. The keyboard has plenty of lighting effects. The Lighting tab grants you comprehensive RGB LED controls for the lighting accents and the mechanical keyboard. Also, the Home tab provides quick shortcuts to switch hotkey, lighting, and overclocking profiles. The Home tab acts as PredatorSense's central hub, and gives you a quick overview of the CPU and GPU clock rates, temperatures, and fan speeds. PredatorSense has six tabs: Home, Lighting, Overclocking, Hotkey, Fan Control, and Monitoring. The Acer Predator 21 X uses a custom version of PredatorSense. Also the curvature imposes additional breadth to the Acer's already thick body. The Acer's 1800R curvature does just that, but we'd argue that 21" isn't wide enough for the curvature to impact your viewing experience significantly, especially if you're already used to a wider, 24" monitor you'll benefit more from curved display technology in a wider, 34" display (we're not suggesting this for a laptop, obviously). The point of a curved screen is to reduce the distance from your eyes to the edges of the screen, which theoretically offers better immersion. You can connect additional displays via the HDMI 2.0 port, two DisplayPort 1.3, and Thunderbolt 3 over Type-C port.
ACER PREDATOR 21X VERGE 1080P
Usually, one GeForce GTX 1080 is more than enough to drive a 1080p display, but two is most definitely overkill, although we are talking a few extra pixels with the wide format. This is the first of its kind to land on our test bench. It's a 21" curved Wide FHD (2160x1080) matte IPS display with G-Sync technology running at a 120Hz refresh rate. One of the Acer Predator 21 X's defining features is the display. If you want to crank up the volume, by all means. Additionally, we’ve only ever seen one subwoofer on a laptop at max, so having two gives the Predator 21 X much more impressive bass than the competition. This applies as well to the upward-facing tweeters you’ll virtually never place your hands here during normal use. We’re pleased to find that this isn’t the case with the Predator 21 X, and we suspect that it’s because the laptop is just so big that your arms will never obstruct the speakers. We've typically found that speakers mounted on the lip in a front-facing position produce less than optimal results.
Finally, the two subwoofers are on the bottom near the edges, although only one of the woofers has a metal plate on top of it. Alternatively, the mid-range speaker grilles have a pentagonal shape with slightly more luster. The surface has a matte, sandblasted texture and gunmetal coloration, but the edges have a reflective, chrome-like quality. The tweeters have elongated metal speaker grilles with the Dolby Audio logo engraved on them. Audio is handled by two upward-facing tweeters, two front-facing mid-range speakers, and two subwoofers on the bottom.
