Hey, there. Few month ago I bought this laptop and it’s awesome, though it has some cons. I’ll describe everything in this thread. Also I’m searching for someone, who will share his time and help me crack its’ bios Acer Predator G9-593 Intel Core i7-6700HQ (2.6Ghz/3.5Ghz) (https://goo.gl/dehk14) Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 (8Gb GDDR5) (https://goo.gl/z2aEFL) 15.6inch 1920x1080 (G-Sync) (IPS) (Matte) 16Gb DDR4-2400 / PC4-19200 (2x ACR24D4S7S8MB-8) 1tb HDD + 128gb SSD Windows 10 x64 Nvidia driver - 378.49 4 USB 3.0, 1 USB-C с Thunderbolt 3, HDMI 2.0, Display Port, SD Card reader, Gigabit Ethernet, Audio/mic Several reviews: http://www.notebookcheck.net/Acer-Predator-15-G9-593…iew.187314.0.html http://gearopen.com/computers/acer-predator-15-g9-59…ond-attack-40868/ http://laptopmedia.com/review/acer-predator-15-g9-59…he-second-attack/ Also this laptop has a bigger brother – Acer Predator G9 793, absolutely same laptop but with 17inch panel, 4k variant and 4 speakers. First of all, good sides: Solid construction, soft touch martial all over the case, no glossy parts. Sound is really loud, even basses exists here, though I can’t say its best of the best. Outstanding performance, take a look at this data https://goo.gl/oyF9dl, almost all games run over 60 fps in 1080 and over 30 fps in 4k. Take a look a several gameplay videos that I’ve captures on this beast, all of them were captured in 4k resolution, on ultra settings with no AA: Rise of Tomb Raider - https://youtu.be/rNRMnytsC2c The Witcher 3 - https://youtu.be/dJicr6we0z0 Quantum Break - https://youtu.be/PNofDssIgS4 (1080 with max AA) Crysis 3 - https://youtu.be/H1ja_BhD0-Q Resident Evil 7 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiF-zhTwNDE Battlefield 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypOEnJ9KbKs Dishonored 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jhtvj4BkiMc Only in Ghost Recon Wildlands I had less then 30 fps https://youtu.be/lbeW9PZvsUo And bad sides: Thought laptop is 15inch, its bulky as hell, thank god it looks okay, not like some previous gaming crap lappys: http://www.notebookcheck.net/uploads/tx_nbc2/toshiba_qosmio_x305_q725_01.jpg Screen has some ghosting, previous static images can stay on screen for some time. Not this laptop, but image illustrates the issue: https://goo.gl/H42OCJ Some laptops has overheating issue on CPU. Though in rarely influence on performance, its still sad thing to have in such big laptop. Issue described in this thread: https://goo.gl/KjNNBN, simple CPU repasting solves the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVEpuZNWLxw Stepback in turms of battery life since g-sync laptops doesn’t support nvidia optimus. Around 4-5 hours of work.
