In Acer's booth at Computex 2025 we've encountered their updated lineup of gaming laptops from the Predator series as well as an extensive range from the newly announced Swift Edge, Swift Go, Swift X and Aspire Copilot+ PCs. The new Predator Triton 14 AI is a lightweight 14.5-inch gaming laptop weighing 1.6 kg with a slim 17.31 mm aluminium chassis. It features an Intel Core Ultra 9 288V processor and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 laptop GPU, cooled by Acer's 6th Gen Dual AeroBlade 3D cooling system and graphene thermal interface materials. It also supports up to 32 GB LPDDR5X RAM and 2 TB PCIe Gen 4 storage. The 14.5-inch display is a Calman Verified OLED WQXGA+ touchscreen panel running at 2880x1800 resolution with 100% DCI-P3 color coverage, 120 Hz refresh rate, and a 1 ms response time. Since Acer is also targeting creative users it includes a haptic Gorilla Glass touchpad with a bundled active stylus. It will be available in Europe this July starting at €2,999.

Right next to this we saw the Predator Helios 18 AI gaming laptop with its 18-inch Mini LED 4K display, not exactly a novelty since it was announced in February. However, it does pack a punch with up to a Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, up to GeForce RTX 5090 laptop GPU, and MagKey 4.0 swappable mechanical switches. Available from April in Europe starting at €3,699, May in North America at $2999.99.



The Acer Swift Edge 14 AI is an ultra-lightweight 14-inch 3K OLED laptop weighing just 0.99 kg, with a magnesium-aluminium alloy chassis measuring 15.9 mm thin. It features up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 288V processor with built-in NPU and Intel Arc GPU, up to 32 GB LPDDR5X RAM, and 1 TB PCIe Gen 4 storage with up to 21 hours of battery life. Available in Europe from June starting at €1,599.



Acer also had on display the two newly announced Swift X 14 creator laptops, targeting graphic designers, video editors, and photographers. The Swift X 14 AI features up to an AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor with Zen 5 cores, while the Swift X 14 uses up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor. Both models pack NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPUs featuring the Blackwell architecture and launch in Europe this July, starting at €1,799 each.



The Acer Swift Go 16 AI and Swift Go 14 AI are productivity focused Copilot+ PCs powered by up to an Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor, with integrated Intel Arc graphics and NPU, supporting up to 32 GB LPDDR5X RAM and 2 TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe storage with up to 16 hours of battery life. The Swift Go 16 AI features a 16-inch WUXGA+ 2K OLED display at 2048x1280 resolution, while the Swift Go 14 AI has a 14-inch WUXGA OLED panel at 1920x1200 resolution. The Swift Go 14 AI launches in Europe this July at €1,199, while the Swift Go 16 AI arrives in Europe this August at €1,299.



Announced on May 16, the Acer Aspire 14 AI and Aspire 16 AI expand the brand's Copilot+ PC lineup. The Aspire 14 AI features up to AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 processors alongside Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and OLED displays certified with VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 500. Meanwhile, the Aspire 16 AI offers a budget-friendly option built on the Snapdragon X platform with a Qualcomm Oryon CPU, Adreno GPU, and Hexagon NPU. It includes a 16-inch WUXGA display, optional touchscreen, USB4 Type-C ports, and Wi-Fi 7. Both models will launch in Europe in July starting at €999.

The guy I was talking with at their booth made a point of it, so I guess Acer are very proud of that achievement.

Hell, I'll bet even the machine is proud of it on which it was made! That is insane! Like Thermalright's 100$ metal fan with 17 blades...
 
Hmmm I'd like to see test done to prove that Graphene TIM claim of an ~14.5% improvement on normal TIMs because from what I've seen other than being reusable Graphene thermal pads are not any better infact they're a bit worse than "ordinary" TIM
