The Triton 700 features a mechanical keyboard, with individually programmable RGB backlit keys. There is a large Gorilla Glass plate above the keyboard which functions as a window into the notebook’s cooling system, showcasing the AeroBlade™ 3D Fan and five heat pipes, and also functions as a touchpad.
The Predator Triton 700 features top of the line connectivity as well. For example Killer DoubleShot Pro networking and Thunderbolt 3. The Killer tech is supposed to smartly detect the fastest available connection (Ethernet or Wireless) and send all high priority gaming traffic over that interface, while standard traffic is routed over the other. Thunderbolt 3 is supposed to provide speeds up to 40 Gbps and dual 4K video output. The Predator Triton 700 also includes two USB 3.0 ports (featuring power-off USB charging), one USB 2.0 port, an HDMI 2.0 port, one DisplayPort connector and a Gigabit Ethernet.
At the launch event in New York today, Jerry Hou, General Manager, Consumer Notebooks, IT Products Business, Acer Inc said, “Building on the highly acclaimed Predator 21 X curved gaming notebook, Acer is proud to announce the new Predator Triton 700, an incredibly thin yet powerful gaming notebook. Our industry leading AeroBlade 3D Fan with metal blades provides ultimate thermal performance, which allows us to pack massive computing power inside this ultrathin form factor without compromise”
