Acer's new Predator 21 X is a monster. Not only have this machine's designers put a curved 21-inch display on a laptop for the first time ever, they've also gone and given it two GeForce GTX 1080 GPUs as well. Add in five cooling fans, a 7th-generation Intel Core K-series processor, and space for as much as four terabytes of SSD storage, and you have a laptop that's beyond obscene.
All I know from my life experiences is that there really is a market for everything. Will surely be a niche but there are Golden plated super sportscars there for people who just want to spend the extra cash lol
This isn't a laptop, this is an All In One with a small screen as there is no way anyone is going to carry this 8KG monstrosity around unless they want a hernia.
The price of this thing will reflect its ridiculous looks and weight.

A lot of people in Japan don't have desktops because of space shortage so there is a market for this, how big is yet to be seen but there will be people who buy it.
I'm pro-laptop and this is dumb. This is just stupid. xD Nothing should be above 17.3" for any reason. I mean... I... I'm floored at this design idea... It's so dumb.
Sorry, that's not that much. I could get 10TB of SSD storage in my Clevo P650 right now, and it's 2.5KG! 2x 1TB M.2 SSD (SATA only, sadly) and 2x 4TB Samsung 850 Evo's... I haven't got that much, because I can't justify or afford £2500(!) on two SSDs, but the potential is there...
Although I will agree that 1080SLI in a laptop is rather crazy/awesome. Shame about the screen; I'd prefer a 4K to a 21:9 (however 21:9 is nice for some stuff...)
this is fancy, but a peasant like me gotta stick to desktop still. let's hope pascal mobile is a step in a good direction though.
damn I'd like to have this so much.
Probably isn't far off that you could build an ITX motherboard with a 6700k, mini 1080 and some crappy coolers. Slap a screen with a hinge on top along with a keyboard and you've got nearly the same thing with desktop performance...
The more I look at this thing the more I laugh and love it.
I'd wager you bludgeon 6-8 full grown men to death with this thing and still function.
I understand this is a niche of a niche but I'm in a niche of a niche category with my massive case and gtx 1080FE.
I hope whoever buys it enjoys it to it's fullest, this SLI curved ultrawide monster.
ohhh you, maybe 3-4 then. That thing is pretty hefty.
