March 21, 2018 / 14:07 IST

Expanding its gaming desktops portfolio, Acer on Wednesday launched gaming desktop Predator Orion 9000, under its premium Predator gaming series lineup.

Acer Predator Orion 9000 Specifications

The Acer Predator Orion 9000 gaming desktop comes with the Intel Core i9 Extreme Edition processor with up to 18 cores and 36 threads and up to two NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080Ti graphics cards.

The desktop can run with up to 128 GB DDR4 memory to perform intensive tasks with ease without compromising on performance.

The Predator Orion 9000 series features enhanced liquid cooling and IceTunnel 2.0 technology to keep desktop heat in check.

Acer Predator Orion 9000 price and availability

The desktop priced at Rs 3,19,999 and is available at select Croma stores and Acer Exclusive stores beginning March 21.

Other Specifications

One-punch overclocking enables battlers to select turbo performance with a single press of a button. Equipped with the futuristic Intel Optane memory Orion 9000 can be expected to deliver blistering read and write speeds, and offers a 2TB hard disk for storage.

IceTunnel 2.0 is an advanced airflow management solution that cleverly separates the system into several thermal zones, each with an individual airflow tunnel to expel heat. Huge metal mesh panels on the front and top allow more cold air in and the rising hot air of the liquid-cooled CPU out, while up to five 120 mm fans in the front, top, and back channel cool air through the chassis. Part of the airflow is redirected towards the back of the motherboard tray to cool the storage devices. The graphic cards feature blower-style fans to drive the heat out from the back, while the PSU is self-contained to avoid thermal interference.

Acer Predator Orion 9000 Connectivity Options

The desktop includes two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports (one Type-C and one Type-A), eight USB 3.1 ports (one Type-C and seven Type-A) and two USB 2.0 ports (Type-A). The Predator Orion 9000 overall supports three M.2 slots to extend the ability to increase the speed, power and capabilities of the PC, and four PCIe x16 slots provide ample expansion for video cards.
