With the gaming industry as profitable as it’s ever been, it’s no surprise wants to cut itself a bigger slice of the multi-billion dollar pie. The company did a complete refresh of its Predator line of gaming hardware this week, including a new computer monitor, a powerful pre-built computer, a gaming-centric tablet, and two new components. All of them boast some impressive hardware and cool designs.

Acer on Wednesday refreshed its Predator line of gaming-grade hardware with a new monitor, desktop system, tablet and two notebooks. Judging by the aggressive aesthetics and respectable build quality, it’s clear that Acer means business with its new components. Let’s have a look. First in line is the Predator X35 gaming monitor, set to arrive during this quarter. This curved, ultra-wide 35-inch IPS display (or 34-inch according to Acer’s press release) features a 21:9 aspect ratio with a 144Hz refresh rate, integrated DTS speakers and Nvidia’s G-Sync technology. Resolution checks in at 3,440 x 1,440 and buyers will get five USB 3.0 ports as well as HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity. The third quarter will see Acer deliver its Predator desktop and tablet. Aside from the visuals provided by Tom’s Guide, there’s not much else to go on as Acer was tight-lipped with regard to hardware specifications.
