Acer Predator: cool hockey facemask, liquid cooling

Here’s the Acer Aspire Predator that’s presumably coming out sometime soon, although an exact date and price aren’t known yet. The case looks like a futuristic dumpster mixed with a legless AT-ST, and I mean that in a good way. The front of the case is like a goalie’s hockey mask that flips up over the top of the machine (also in a good way). Specs include…

  • Windows Vista Ultimate or Home Premium
  • Intel Core 2 Extreme or Core 2 Quad processor
  • NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI
  • Up to 8GB RAM
  • Serial ATA HD, four drive bays, up to 1TB, RAID
  • Two optical drive bays
  • TV Tuner
  • SoundBlaster X-Fi Platinum and Dolby
  • 8 USB ports, card reader, dual Ethernet ports, two DVI-D ports, TV-out
  • Liquid cooling
  • Overclocking

  • I might be the only one who thinks this, but that is one ugly-ass case. I know it’s all badass and gamer oriented and all, but I’m a PC gamer myself and that’s just not very appealing at all.

    With those specs, though, that thing’ll freaking scream.

  • This thing has come out, but has been recalled, as it got too hot!
