Acer today announced the availability of its Predator 21 X gaming laptop, the world’s first curved screen notebook as per the company, at CES, Las Vegas, News 18 reports.

The notebook features a curved screen with NVIDIA G-SYNC technology and a 21-inch IPS display (2560 x 1080 resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate).

It also supports eye-tracking technology from Tobii. Eye tracking lets gamers identify enemies, aim and take cover simply by gazing at objects on the screen in over 45 titles like Elite Dangerous, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Watch Dogs 2.

The Predator 21 X features dual NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphic cards in SLI and an overclockable 7th Generation IntelCore i7-7820HK processor running on Windows 10. Supporting all this power is 64GB of DDR4-2400 memory, up to four 512GB state drives in RAID 0 configuration and a 7200 RPM hard drive of 1TB capacity.

In addition, Killer DoubleShot Pro automatically picks the fastest network connection (Ethernet or wireless) and sends all high priority traffic over that interface while standard traffic is sent over the other.

The notebook also features a cooling architecture consisting of 5 system fans (including 3 ultra-thin AeroBlade metal fans) and 9 heat pipes.

The Predator 21 X features a 3-way (tweeter, midrange, woofer) audio design which is powered by 4 speakers (2 tweeters, 2 mid-range) and 2 subwoofers to produce a full spectrum of sound.

The Predator 21 X works with Windows Hello, supporting password-free sign-in by face recognition.

For safe transport and storage, each Predator 21 X ships with a custom hard-shell carrying case.
