The display is an IPS panel that pushes a wide-screen 2560×1080 resolution with NVIDIA’s G-Sync technology. Being curved, it promises a more immersive gaming experience and Acer is topping that further with an integrated Tobii eye-tracking technology.

It supports up to 64GB of DDR4 RAM on 4 DIMM (2400MHz) slots and up to 4TB storage with SSD. For audio playback, it gets a SoundPound 4.2+ system which consists of 4 speakers and 2 subwoofers. It keep things cool during intensive gaming, the Predator 21 X has 5 integrated fans for better thermal management.

The numeric keypad on the right can also be flipped over to turn it into a precision touchpad. According to the spec sheet, it weighs a colossal 8kg.
