The Acer Predator Helios 500 is a massive gaming notebook that’s easy to overclock and upgrade, but its display could be a little brighter.

There’s no doubt about it, the Predator Helios 500 is a full-on desktop replacement. It’s a chunky beast, but at least it’s an attractive one. Gone are the blacks and reds of last year’s Helios; this model has a dark blue aesthetic. The dark blue plastic top case has two subtle stripes around the Predator logo in silver with a teal outline. On the back, two vents jut out with massive grilles and blue fans.
