The Acer Predator 17 G9-791-75PV (Predator 17 Series) 1TB / 32GB is Acer's 2016 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 40 x 423 x 322 ( = 1.57 x 16.65 x 12.68 in) display, the Intel Core i7-6700HQ 4c/8t 4 x 2.6 - 3.5 GHz (Intel Core i7) chipset. At AED 1,099 in the UAE and ₹24,990 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Acer Predator 17 G9-791-75PV excels with its Intel Core i7-6700HQ and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M with 3GB GDDR5 VRAM, delivering strong 1080p gaming performance even today. The 16GB DDR4-2133 dual-channel RAM ensures smooth multitasking, and the 6000mAh battery lasts up to 4 hours under light use. It’s built for gamers who need a desktop-replacement rig with HDMI and DisplayPort outputs for external monitors, plus four USB 3.0 ports for peripherals. Its 4.1kg weight and thick chassis make it a travel burden, and thermals throttle under sustained loads, especially with the GTX 970M’s limited VRAM. Storage is a slow SATA SSD, not NVMe. In UAE at AED 1099, it’s good value because you’re paying for a rare 17-inch gaming chassis with discrete GPU under AED 1200. In India at ₹24990, it’s overpriced—newer Ryzen 5 or Intel i5 laptops with RTX 3050 offer better performance and efficiency for similar cost.
