 All the plebs are getting hands-on time with the Triton 700, a new Predator laptop from Acer. What we're gonna be doing is too hot for TV. We are not only gonna be taking you guys on a tour of the outside of an utterly groundbreaking gaming laptop, we are gonna be cracking the casing open for the first time. We're opening up a new merch store. You can check out some of our new gear today at the link in the video description. That is a weird layout. Yes, we'll get to that, but first the display. It's 1920 by 1080, 60 Hertz. They are not talking about whether or not it's G-Sync, which presumably means that it will be, because if it wasn't, there would be no Nvidia breathing down their neck. Don't talk about how it's gonna be G-Sync. So that that would be my assumption there, but I could be incorrect about that. On the back you're gonna find actually fairly complete I.O. We've got power in, HDMI 2.0 as well as display port, whichever standard that is. They aren't talking about that at the moment. We've got our power button, Thunderbolt, nice addition. We've got USB 3 and look at that, an ethernet port. Wow! On this side we've got two more USB 3's, audio, and this is a really smart idea. A little recessed USB port so your wireless mouse dongle doesn't get caught on stuff when you're sliding it in and out of your bag. So the trackpad uses Gorilla Glass. It's got a very unconventional, trapezoid-shaped kind of outline here on a glossy surface that I'm gonna go ahead. I'm gonna have to be totally honest with you guys. Not a fan. It's a weird shape. It's a different aspect ratio than the display and when there's no tactile feedback when I'm going off the trackpad, I just end up confused because I'm really not that smart. Okay, then we've got the keyboard. Even as, even as a person who legitimately carries around a mouse pad and a mouse at all times, even as one of those freaks, I'm still not a huge fan of the weird trackpad positioning. It's better than I've seen in the past. So they're calling it like a mechanical type keyboard. I'd say it's a little stiffer than what's on the blade as it is, but this, whether intentionally or unintentionally, is where it gets to be actually somewhat usable because the laptop is so thin that you can actually rest your wrists on the table next to it instead of having to rely on also carting around a wrist rest with you. We interrupt this program to bring you breaking news that we've learned later after this is a mouse. The keyboard is RGB. The software is not working yet, but individual key backlight. Woo! Now, let's get to the part you guys have all been waiting for. I never show up at one of these events without my trusty toolkit. Whoa, hold on a minute here. Oh, we've got the ribbon connector for the keyboard. Let's try not to break their prototype unit here. Oh, it's turned on. Okay, one second. Let's go ahead and... Power button's over here. Yeah. Holy crap, is that six heat pipes in here? And these are connected to a whopping four heat sinks, two near the back on the side, and then two more of them at the back. And then the whole thing is cooled by these are, so these are pretty special. These are what they're calling their twin arrow blade fans. These are a second generation of the design that uses like these, these razor-thin blades on it, or maybe I should... Okay, I think I just crossed a line here. I mean very thin pieces of metal on the fan in order to achieve what they're claiming is 35% improved airflow over more conventional fans. But of course, when you see a lot of cooling, it's like where there's smoke, there's fire, right? Where there's a lot of cooling, there must be a lot of performance. So you've got two SODIMM slots allowing you to install up to 32 gigs. Let's see what's in here. So this is, yeah, so they've got 32 gigs of DDR4 SODIMM memory in here. They've got... What else is going on? This is a really cool battery. I'm sure like very few other people are gonna geek out over this battery, but holy crap, is that ever thin? They've got, oh, I love this, copper cooling for the up to dual M.2 slots right here. So you can run RAID 0, NVMe SSDs for boot, up to 512 gigs, killer wireless. And then of course here, you've got the main story. The high-end model, the first one coming is gonna be $2999. This is a $3,000 laptop. So, under these heat pipes here, what we know is that we're getting a Core i7-7700HQ. And I would speculate that that's right there next to the memory. What we don't know is the 10th generation graphics that Acer is going to be equipping it with. What we do know is that it's 10th gen. What we also know is that Acer had a slide showing it was gonna be over 40% faster than a late 2016 Blade. And what we also know is that... Hey, we had it turned on. For the time being, that's a GTX 1080 in there. Acer says this notebook will be overclockable. Whoa. I have to repair this electronic device! What will I do? Wait, hold on. I think I got something. Ah, yes. Never more than an arm's reach away is my iFixit Pro-Tech Toolkit. Or one of the dozen or so that I have, because these things are flippin'. Awesome! You probably know iFixit from the thousands upon thousands of free guides. Over on their website, ifixit.com. But what not everyone knows is that they also have all the tools, spare parts, and accessories that you need to complete your latest electronics repair. And the best part is you can get a whole Pro-Tech Toolkit for usually less than what it would cost to have someone else fix your device once. And you can use it many, many times. Prying tools, screwing tools, suction tools. You pretty much freaking name it. And the best part is you can use offer code Linus at the checkout to save $5 on a purchase of $10 or more. And it comes with a lifetime warranty. Thank you guys for watching this video. If you disliked it, you can go ahead and hit that dislike button.
