2017-01-04
hi this is Sam and this is ace is completely insane predator 21x laptop it is a 21 inch laptop with an ultra wide display and it costs $9,000 it's the only laptop in the world ASA says with a curved display and it's also one of the very few with a mechanical keyboard it has two nvidia gtx 10a GPUs inside Intel kvl expresses 64 gigabytes of RAM because job to power supply's because this thing made a lot of power and there is a warning here that says hot surface warning do not touch the keyboard is pretty unusual among laptops and it's a full mechanical keyboard with Cherry MX switches these are the brown variety which let's click even the Blues but may be better for our gaming performance above the keyboard you have this window into the GPU blower or even more flair you can customize this panel with ASA design graphics or any image you want next to the keyboard you have the trackpad it's kind of tube to the side which is a bit more unusual but the reason for that is you can take it off because it magnetically latches in and you can turn it into a numpad in case you want a full-on keyboard for MMO shortcuts or Excel macros or God knows what people do with these things and then below the curved monitor you have this panel here which is a Toby eye tracking so you can it's not it's not really a full control system but it's been built into a bunch of games like watchdogs 2 Deus Ex mankind divided so it's like a kind of supplementary control scheme where you can move the camera by looking around with your eyes unfortunately the only game installed on this laptop right now is farmville 2 so not quite the ideal software selection to test out the gaming performance but really I don't think you need to test the gaming performance of this thing it is clearly an insane luxury device for people that want the absolute best laptop physical object thing to put on their desk it is not comfortable on a lap I'm sat outside here on this chair and I am worried I'm about to drop this $9,000 laptop probably no one's going to buy this later knows that it's not it's not news to them that we are going to call this an impractical product it being an impractical product is really kind of the point it's a demonstration of what is possible in the laptop if you really go pulls out and throw every feature imaginable into something and charge nine thousand dollars for it I am NOT going to buy one but I would like you to buy me one so please add it to your Christmas list for me and if you're not a gamer this also serves double duty as a macbook carrying case
