The Acer Predator 17 G9-791-75PV (Predator 17 Series) 2TB / 64GB 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 1,599 in the UAE and ₹38,990 in India, it sits firmly in the mid-range 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. Its 16GB DDR4-2133 dual-channel RAM and 2TB HDD provide ample multitasking headroom and storage. The 6000mAh battery lasts 4–5 hours under light use, though gaming drains it in under 90 minutes. This machine targets gamers who need a large screen and desktop-class GPU without a desktop, especially those upgrading from older rigs. Its weight of 4.1kg and thick 40mm profile make it a travel burden. The HDD is a bottleneck—load times lag behind SSDs, and the GTX 970M struggles with modern AAA titles at high settings. In UAE at AED 1599, it’s good value because you’re paying for a usable gaming rig, not a premium brand. In India at ₹38990, it’s overpriced—newer Ryzen 5 or Intel i5 laptops with SSDs and RTX 3050 offer better performance and speed for similar cost.
