Acer unveiled its new Predator Triton 500 gaming laptop at IFA 2019, a new laptop rocking a 300Hz display -- just like the new ASUS Zephyrus S GX701.

The new Acer Triton 500 has a 15.6-inch 1080p 300Hz display that will be shipping in December for $2800, where inside it is powered by an Intel Core i7-8750H processor, and offer either 16GB or 32GB of DDR4.

It'll be powered by NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 2060 or RTX 2080 with Max-Q, up to 2 x 512GB PCIe 3.0 x4 SSDs in RAID 0 for the speed freaks out there. I would definitely be going with the RTX 2080 Max-Q if it were up to me, because you're going to need as much graphics grunt as you can to hit 300FPS.

Although, if you're playing something like League of Legends, CS:GO, or Overwatch -- then the RTX 2060 should be good to go for 1080p 300FPS if you play on low/medium detail.
