Acer's New Predator Laptops and Desktops Have RTX 5070 GPUs
The Predator Triton 14 AI is a 14.5-inch laptop that weighs only 1.6 kg and is just 17.31 mm thick, with a sleek aluminum body that doesn't easily get fingerprints. Inside, it has an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 288V, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU with DLSS 4, up to 32 GB of DDR5 memory, and up to 2 TB of fast PCIe Gen 4 NVMe storage.
The screen is a Calman Verified OLED WQXGA+ (2880 x 1800) display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and 100% DCI-P3 color coverage, making it great for detailed visual work. The screen also supports touch input. The Triton 14 AI has a large, buttonless haptic touchpad made of Corning Gorilla Glass that works with a stylus. It has 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity and tilt recognition.
Cooling is handled by Acer's 6th Gen AeroBlade 3D metal fans and a vapor chamber, along with a new graphene thermal material on the CPU that improves heat dissipation by 14.5% compared to standard thermal paste. Other features include a per-key RGB keyboard, Intel Killer Wi-Fi 7, Thunderbolt 4, and Human Presence Detection (HPD) with an AI Vision Sensor for better security and convenience.
The Predator Helios Neo 14 AI is another 14.5-inch laptop, but it is more focused on gaming than the Triton 14 AI. While it is similar in size and portability, it has some noticeable differences. The Helios Neo 14 AI can be equipped with up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor 285H and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU with DLSS 4, which matches its sibling in graphics power. It supports up to 32 GB of fast LPDDR5X memory and up to 2 TB of PCIe Gen 4 SSD storage.
For the display, users can choose between a 2.8K OLED WQXGA+ (2880 x 1800) screen with a 0.2ms response time or a 165Hz WQXGA (2560x1600) IPS panel. Cooling is managed by Acer's 5th Gen AeroBlade technology, liquid metal thermal paste on the CPU, a Vector Heat pipe, and the Vortex Flow system. Unlike the Triton, it does not have advanced stylus support but includes a customizable RGB logo and a three-zone RGB keyboard. For connectivity, it has Intel Killer Wi-Fi 6E and Thunderbolt 4.
If you were comparing the two, the Triton 14 AI seems to balance performance and creative features better because it comes with an OLED display, stylus support, and precision input options, making it better for creative work. On the other hand, the Helios Neo 14 AI is more gaming-focused, with a faster display option and features that improve the gaming experience. Both laptops are highly portable, but the Triton 14 AI is slightly thinner and lighter.
Alongside the laptops, Acer is offering the Predator Orion 3000 gaming desktop, which is a 28-liter PC that includes an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor 265F and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. It has up to 32 GB of DDR5 RAM and plenty of storage options, including up to 2 TB of NVMe SSD and 2 TB HDD space. The desktop has an EMI-compliant case with tempered glass side panels and mesh lining for better airflow, supported by 120mm fans at the front and back.

Steam for Chromebooks is reportedly being discontinued
The dream of Chromebooks that double as gaming laptops appears to be on its last legs. 9to5Google reports that Google is ending support for Steam for Chromebooks starting January 1, 2026. Porting the application launcher was part of an extended push from the company to make Chromebooks a place to play games. Companies like ASUS and Acer announced and released gaming Chromebooks, but the idea never seemed to catch on. Google's plan to retire Steam for Chromebooks was discovered when 9to5Google tried to install the launcher on a new laptop. "The Steam for Chromebook Beta program will conclude on January 1st, 2026," a new notice reads when you download Steam. "After this date, games installed as part of the Beta will no longer be available to play on your device. We appreciate your participation in and contribution to learnings from the beta program, which will inform the future of Chromebook gaming." Engadget has contacted Google and Valve for confirmation that Steam for Chromebooks is being discontinued. We'll update this article if we hear back. Reports that Steam would eventually be available on ChromeOS started as far back as 2020. The joint effort to port the launcher to Chromebooks was a surprise announcement at GDC 2022. Google released a Steam alpha that March, which ultimately worked better than expected. A beta version of the app came a few months later in November, adding support for several new Chromebooks. The app has existed in beta since then, without any major updates from Google or Valve. One reason Google could be giving up is that the number of games that can actually run on Chromebooks is limited, thanks to the underpowered CPUs and integrated graphics that most ChromeOS devices use. Valve's Proton compatibility software — which helps Windows games run on the Linux-based Steam Deck — is technically available for Chromebooks, but it can't make up for a lack of processing power. Without Steam, using either NVIDIA GeForce Now or Xbox Cloud Gaming is the best option for running modern console and PC games on your Chromebook. ChromeOS can also runs Android apps, but then you have to be comfortable playing what you can get from the Play Store.

Walmart Is Practically Giving Away This Acer Full-HD Monitor, Stock Is Already Running Low
Upgrading to a good multipurpose monitor for gaming, work, or streaming doesn't have to break your budget, or your back. Check out this 23.6-inch full-HD Acer SA1 series monitor that's just fallen under the $100 mark at Walmart, down from its regular $129 price. This monitor far overperforms its bargain price, it's ultra-thin and easily wall-mountable, and even if you opt to use it with its stand, it weighs less than 6 pounds. For a sub-$100 monitor, the Acer SA1 is packed with features and quality. The 1080p resolution and 16:9 aspect ratio are good for gaming and great for everyday use. The 23.6-inch screen extends virtually across the entirety of the monitor's face for a frameless effect, and if you're taking advantage of this great Walmart deal and buying more than one Acer SA1, they look nearly seamless when placed next to each other in a multi-screen setup. See at Walmart PC and handheld gamers will appreciate some of the built-in features of the Acer SA1, even above the full-HD resolution and 16.7 million colors it reproduces. The Acer SA1 comes with AMD Radeon Freesync technology, which eliminates screen tearing and hesitation during gameplay by dynamically adjusting the monitor's refresh rate to match the frame rate of the graphics card. That refresh rate is a crisp 100Hz, and with a 1 millisecond Visual Response Boost time, even rapid-fire action games come across smoothly without ghosting or smearing. We're not suggesting you play all day, but lengthy sessions are easier on your eyes thanks to the Acer SA1's VisionCare technologies which use blue light shielding and flicker-free viewing to reduce eye strain. The gaming specs are certainly nice to have, especially from a sub-$100 monitor, but the Acer SA1 has the chops to become your everyday monitor for all uses. With the stand attached it's 15.67 inches tall, 21.22 inches wide, but only 7.44 inches deep, making it a perfect size for any desk or setup. And without the stand it's easily wall-mountable, with a slender weight under 6 pounds to ensure you're not stressing your wall anchors. The Acer SA1 monitor comes with an HDMI cable, and also has a VGA port to go with the HDMI hookup. This monitor is easy on your eyes, easy to set up and use, and during this $30 off sale at Walmart, it's easy on your wallet as well. Missing out on this Walmart sale could mean missing out on the best sub-$100 monitor you can find. See at Walmart
