Hands-on review: Acer Predator G1

Acer has been pushing hard to get into the PC gamer world with two powerful and feature packed desktops. However, both the Predator G3 and Predator G6 fell flat in our book with underwhelming upgradability and a unfinished interiors unfitting for their premium price.

Now with a year of experience under its belt, Acer has taken all it learnings to develop the Predator G1; new gaming PC squeezes more performance into a tighter package, all while looking even more attractive to boot.

Design

While Acer’s last few desktops resembled bloated mid-towers in the shape of a futuristic tank tread, the G1 is a more reserved take on the alien like design. The case is considerably smaller, measuring it at only 4.49 x 13.70 x 16.46 inches (114 x 348 x 418 mm, W x D x H). It falls in line with Mini-ITX desktops like the Alienware X51, however, it isn’t as small as the incredibly compact as the Asus ROG G20BM.

The Predator G1 inherits much of its design from Acer’s first pair of desktops, however, the chevron have been sharpened and arranged into a spine of spades.
