Pros and Cons

Acer Predator Helios 700

Strengths

Performance is definitely where it's at here...the Acer Predator Helios 700 comes with the 9th Gen Intel Core i9-9900HK chipset stuffed inside, backed by a maximum of 64 gigs of DDR4 RAM and either Nvidia's GeForce RTX 2070 or 2080. This is no choice for alternative options here.
The dual drive storage is super nippy...hit and read speeds of around 3500 megabytes per second and write speeds not far off are definitely one of the best results I've seen in some time
Customizable RGB keyboard with the option to assign a different color to each individual key, so you can turn this thing into a retina-searing light show or give it a moody glow that turns your slack-jawed expression a here's red color as you gunned down endless strangers online.
The sides of the laptop mean you get plenty of space for the keyboard including room for a number pad macro shortcuts and everything else you would need, making it comfortable enough to use for gaming and typing alike.
