Predator Helios Neo 16: Powerful Gaming Performance at a More Accessible Price Point

Leading the lineup is the Predator Helios Neo 16 with solid performance and bold gaming aesthetics design for passionate, socially connected gamers. Powered by up to Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU, it delivers smooth, responsive gameplay and streaming. The Predator Helios Neo 16 is also equipped with a 5th Gen AeroBlade 3D fan, helping to keep the system running smoothly during extended gaming sessions.

The display is 16-inch 16:10 IPS, available with up to WQXGA+ resolution, 180Hz refresh rate, 3ms response time and 100% sRGB colour coverage. This makes it suitable for gamers who want smooth visuals, responsive gameplay and sharper details for both competitive and immersive titles.

The laptop is also equipped with Intel Killer DoubleShot Pro, combining Killer Wi-Fi 6E and 2.5G Killer Ethernet for more stable and responsive connectivity. For communication and entertainment, it features DTS:X Ultra Audio, Hi-Res Audio certification by Japan Audio Society (JAS) and Acer PurifiedVoice with AI noise reduction for clearer voice capture during gaming sessions, calls and livestreams.

Predator Orion 5000: A Desktop Command Centre for Serious Gaming

The Predator Orion 5000 combines performance with a bold gaming aesthetic for users who prefer a powerful stationary setup. Housed in a 45L chassis made with 65% PCR plastic, the desktop features an EMI-compliant tempered glass side panel and customisable ARGB lighting, giving users both performance and style in one setup.

Combining an Intel Core Ultra 7 Processor 265F and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 graphics, the Predator Orion 5000 delivers solid performance for demanding games, competitive play and creative workflows. It also features the Predator CycloneX 360 cooling system to optimise airflow and improve heat dissipation to allow key components to operate at their full potential.

The Predator Orion 5000 is equipped with 32GB DDR5 6000 XMP MHz RAM, upgradable up to 128GB, and 1TB SSD storage with additional expansion support for SATA and M.2 SSD. Connectivity is further enhanced with Wi Fi 7, enabling smooth online gaming and fast data transfer.

Predator XB273U X2: Fast and Immersive Visuals for Competitive Play

To complete the gaming experience, Acer Malaysia is also introducing the Predator XB273U X2, a 27-inch QHD gaming monitor designed for gamers who want fast, fluid and detailed visuals.

The Predator XB273U X2 features an overclocked 210Hz refresh rate and a rapid 0.5ms response time, helping reduce motion blur and deliver smoother visuals during fast-paced gameplay. Its QHD resolution provides sharp image quality, making it a strong display choice for competitive players who also want an immersive viewing experience.

Nitro PG241Y P1: Smooth Portable Display for Gaming, Work and Everyday Use

Designed for gamers, creators, and multitaskers on the move, Acer Nitro PG241Y P1 is Malaysia’s first 23.8-inch portable gaming monitor, delivering ultra-smooth 144Hz visuals anytime, anywhere. Its high refresh rate and IPS panel make it a suitable option for users who want smoother visuals, wider viewing angles and added screen space without committing to a full desktop monitor setup.

Through a single USB-C cable, the Nitro PG241Y P1 is a versatile option for dual-screen setups in limited spaces, screen sharing during business meetings or connecting to a favourite console. Equipped with a built-in kickstand, users can easily place it on a desk, adjust viewing angles, or even mount to fit different environments.
