The average frame rate was 69 fps, and it stayed within 1 frame on all 10 runs. To test sustained performance, we ran the Metro: Last Light benchmark 10 times, which simulates about half an hour of gaming. The laptop earned a score of 10.7 on the SteamVR performance test, just edging past the category average of 10.6. If you have an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, it should work perfectly well with the Helios. At an average of 99 fps, it also well outpaced the 76 fps category average. On Grand Theft Auto V (1080p, Very High), the AMD-powered Predator again left the Intel/Nvidia model far behind. And that smoothness was aided by the laptop’s FreeSync display, which (like Nvidia’s competing G-Sync tech) keeps screen tearing and stuttering in check. I played 2016’s Doom at Ultra settings and 1080p, and the game ran silky-smooth, varying between 68 and 110 frames per second (fps). The AMD-powered Helios is easily powerful enough to play modern titles at High settings, including VR games. And for the most part, this machine doesn’t disappoint. With a powerful desktop-class CPU (AMD’s Ryzen 7 2700) and GPU (an AMD Radeon Vega 56), this model of Acer’s Predator is poised to impress, going up against similarly priced models which tend to sport mobile Intel CPUs and Nvidia GTX 1070 graphics (like the previous Predator Helios 500 we tested).
