The Acer Predator Helios 300 PH317-56-718D (Predator Helios 300 Series) 1TB / 32GB is Acer's 2019 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 27.65 x 399.3 x 295.5 ( = 1.09 x 15.72 x 11.63 in) display, the Intel Core i7-12700H 14c/20t 14 x 1.7 - 4.7 GHz, 115 W PL2 / Short Burst, 115 W PL1 / Sustained, Alder Lake-H chipset. At AED 2,499 in the UAE and ₹59,990 in India, it sits firmly in the mid-range tier.
The Acer Predator Helios 300 PH317-56-718D excels with its Intel Core i7-12700H and NVIDIA RTX 3070 Ti 8GB GPU, delivering sustained 150W performance for 4K gaming and GPU-heavy tasks, backed by 32GB DDR5-4800 RAM for multitasking. The 90Wh battery supports moderate use but lasts only 4–5 hours under load, not idle. This machine targets competitive gamers and 3D renderers needing consistent high-frame-rate output, not portability. Its weight of 2.993kg and bulky 1.034kg power brick hinder travel. Thermals throttle under prolonged 100% loads, despite dual fans. The USB4/Thunderbolt port is rare at this price, and Wi-Fi 6E ensures low-latency connectivity. In UAE at AED 2499, it’s good value because the RTX 3070 Ti and DDR5 RAM are uncommon below AED 3000. In India at ₹59990, it’s overpriced—comparable RTX 4060 models offer better efficiency and newer architecture for similar cost.
