Other specs include a 15.6-inch 4K IPS touch display, 16GB of DDR4-2133 RAM, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD (7,200 RPM), three USB 3.0 ports, a single USB 3.1 Type-C port, HDMI output, GbE LAN, an Alienware Graphics Amplifier port for connecting Alienware’s external graphics card dock, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1, 2.1MP webcam, and Windows 10 Home 64-bit.Microsoft has pegged as its best deal an HP Pavilion x360 Convertible, which is also a Signature Edition PC (basically means there’s no third-party junkware added by the manufacturer). You have to add the system to your virtual cart to see the price, but we took the liberty of doing that for you—spoiler, it’s $479, down from $799. That gets you a 15.6-inch Full HD touchscreen display powered by an Intel Core i5-7200U processor (Kaby Lake), 8GB of RAM, and 1TB hard drive.Lugging around an ultra high-end laptop that’s brimming with power-hungry hardware isn’t a pain just because it’s heavy, but also because some of them require two external power supplies. Folks, the struggle is real, and Eurocom has a solution. It’s a 780W AC/DC adapter built to power any portable system out there.

Our own technology editor Bo Moore learned how much it sucks having to carry multiple power supplies when testing the Eurocom Sky X9E2, a beastly laptop that can be configured with a pair of GeForce GTX 1080 desktop GPUs. It came with two giant 330W power bricks. At over 12 pounds for the laptop alone, the Sky X9E2 already pushes the definition of portable.The new 780W AC/DC adapter eliminates the need to keep track of dual external power supplies for systems like the Sky X9E2 and Sky X7E2, for which it was designed. It can also be used for power a variety of other laptops, and even desktops.This high efficiency AC adapter can be applied to a variety of high performance applications, where high efficiency, highly mobile, rugged power supplies are needed. For workstations, desktops, small form factor PCs and servers it is highly advantageous to have the AC adapter outside of the enclosure to reduce heat and increase performance of the system, Eurocom says.Eurocom’s 780W power brick has a few features not found on most AC/DC adapters, including an LED panel, detachable DC cable with screw locking mechanism, detachable AC cable, power switch, auto switching capability, and an industrial grade chassis with dual high-speed fans.

This power adapter measures 12.8 x 4.3 x 1.5 inches (LxWxH) and weighs 2.9 pounds.The convenience of replacing dual power bricks with a single one doesn’t come cheap—Eurocom has it listed for $475 (€407).Remember when gaming laptops were big, heavy, and prohibitively expensive? Apparently those days are not over. Not for Acer anyway, which will soon make available its previously announced Predator 21 X laptop starting at $8,999 (£9,999).Credit Acer on the price tag because who can afford (or justify) dropping nine grand on a notebook? Close call, but at $8,999 the Predator 21 X is a veritable bargain if you can overlook its size, right?Okay, maybe not. However, it is rocking a drool-worthy foundation, including a 7th generation (Kaby Lake) Intel Core i7-7820HK processor paired with two GeForce GTX 1080 GPUs in SLI. That’s excessive even for this laptop’s native 2560×1080 resolution with 120Hz refresh rate (G-Sync is supported, too), which spans a 21-inch curved IPS panel. But hey, all that power could come in handy down the road if you feel like tethering the Predator 21 X to a 4K display.

The display is at least one corner that Acer seems to have cut here. For nearly $9,000, it seems stingy on Acer’s part to go with anything less than 4K, though perhaps finding one with a curved panel suitable for laptops would have driven the cost up even higher. By going this route, Acer is able to market the Predator 21 X as the world’s first notebook with a curved screen.Buyers will find 64GB of DDR4-2400 memory underneath the hood, a copious amount even by professional standards. Storage consists of up to four 512GB solid state drives in a RAID 0 configuration (including two NVMe PCIe SSDs) and a 1TB HDD. Since Acer does not mention exactly how much storage comes standard here, it suggests to us that not all four SSD slots are filled. And while it may seem like we’re picking on the Predator 21 X at this point, only 1TB of bulk storage in a nine grand configuration feels a little skimpy, too.When flipping the lid users will find a full-sized mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX Brown key switches and per-key backlighting. For those who want to, Acer includes teal WASD keys to swap out with the black ones.

Other features include a three-way audio design (tweeter, midrange, and woofer), a numeric keypad that can be flipped over and used as a precision touchpad, support for Windows Hello, and a metal maintenance panel just above the keyboard on the right that provides easy access to the RAM modules and one of the 2.5-inch drives.Acer expects to sell at least a few hundred of these laptops, as the first 300 will featured a limited edition series number on the panel. Each Predator 21 X also comes with a hard shell carrying case.Eurocom’s latest laptop, a term we use loosely here, blurs the line between what it means to be a notebook versus a desktop. The Sky X7E2, as it’s called, is a 17.3-inch desktop replacement that tips the scales at over 8.5 pounds (3.9kg) with a 1.6-inch waistline. Why would you need something so comparatively big and bulky?The Sky X7E2 is designed for VR gaming in a technically mobile form factor without the performance penalties that sometimes accompany a laptop. To start with, it rocks a socketed desktop LGA1151 Intel Core i7-6700K processor.You can pair the processor with up to 64GB of DDR4-3000 RAM (4x16GB) and your choice of three Pascal-based graphics cards: GeForce GTX 1060, 1070, or 1080 (all MXM 3.0 slot).

The GeForce GTX 1080 is overkill for the base model’s Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) display, though you can upgrade to a 3K resolution TN panel or 4K IPS screen.Beyond that, the Sky X7E2 supports up to 5TB of storage space with four drive bays, which are equally split between SATA 6Gbps and M.2 PCIe Gen4.Other features include a 6-in-1 memory card reader, Killer E2400 GbE LAN, M.2 WLAN/Bluetooth support, Sound Blaster X-Fi MB5, two USB 3.1 Type-C ports, three non-powered and one powered USB 3.0 ports, two mini DisplayPorts (1.3), an HDMI 2.0 port, and a backlit keyboard.Asus introduced its first laptop under its ROG Strix badge earlier this year, the GL502, and now it’s following that up with a second offering that combines both gaming monikers, the GL553VW.Like the GL502, the new GL553VW is a 15.6-inch laptop for gamers, though it has a smaller overall footprint measuring 7cm in width and 11cm in length. It also has a thinner bezel all around, which Asus pitches as a better fit for backpacks even though it’s slightly thicker than its predecessor.

If shopping a GL553VW, pay close attention to the panel type. Asus lists two different options, TN and IPS, the latter of which typically produces better color reproduction and more flexible viewing angles, albeit sometimes at the expense of response time (neither option comes with G-Sync support). Both are Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) and powered by either an Intel Core i5-6300HQ or Core i7-6700HQ processor and up to 32GB of DDR4-2133 RAM.For graphics, Asus is sticking with Maxwell, and specifically the GeForce GTX 960M with 2GB or 4GB of GDDR5 memory (depending on the model). That should suffice for 1080p gaming, though it obviously doesn’t have the legs of Pascal and may struggle to keep up with more demanding titles.Storage consists of up to a 512GB PCIe x4 SSD, though less expensive models will wield up to a 256GB SATA SSD or up to a 2TB HDD. On the connectivity front, the GL553VW sports 802.11ac wi-fi, Bluetooth 4.0, a USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port, two USB 3.0 ports, a single USB 2.0 port, GbE LAN, 2-in-1 card reader, audio combo jack, and HDMI output.Asus outfitted the GL553VW with a gaming keyboard that uses red backlighting and scissor-switch keys with 2.5mm of travel distance. It also has distinctly colored WASD keys, a larger space bar than usual, and isolated arrow keys.

It looks like a solid setup, though it’s hard to get excited about a mid-range Maxwell mobile GPU at this stage. Depending on the price (which Asus hasn’t announced), you may kick yourself for grabbing this a month or two down the line. HP is introducing a unified gaming portfolio under its Omen branding with a range of solutions at different price points. It’s an effort to supercharge the OEM’s involvement in PC gaming and part of the company’s strategy to reinvent personal systems, the company said.Hopefully HP follows through with a long term commitment to PC gaming. That’s been a weakness of HP, which never really capitalized on its acquisition of boutique builder Voodoo PC back in 2006. Years later, the Omen brand was supposed to bring Voodoo PC’s DNA to the forefront of PC design, but even that has kind of faded into the shadows.Perhaps that will change going forward with HP’s renewed interest. The next wave of Omen by HP gaming PCs will feature four devices, including two laptops, a desktop, and a 32-inch Quad HD display.The Omen laptops will come in 15.6-inch and 17.3-inch form factors, both in with Full HD 1080p or 4K IPS displays. They’ll have Omen’s distinct branding on the black mesh laptop lid and the keyboard deck, the latter of which is backlit with a red LED.

HP’s laptops will feature processor options up to a Core i7 Skylake chip and up to Nvidia GeForce GTX 965M graphics. For RAM and storage, HP’s laptop will be available with up to 16GB of RAM and up to a 512GB PCIe SSD or 2TB HDD for a single storage setup, and up to a 4TB HDD and 128GB SSHD for dual storage configurations.The top end graphics option is a bit of a buzzkill for a pair of laptops with 4K display options, especially with mobile Pascal GPUs presumably somewhere around the bend. Nevertheless, it should suffice for 1080p gaming.As for the desktop, HP is rebranding its Phoenix system to join the streamlined Omen family. These are a bit more interesting as select models will feature a Core i7-6700K processor coupled with up to a GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition or AMD Radeon R9 390X graphics card.Desktops will also feature up to 32GB or RAM, along with up to a 512GB SSD and up to 3TB of HDD storage. HP’s pitching this one hard as a VR-ready desktop, noting that it has ample storage options to hold a massive amount of large format VR games and content.
