The Predator DustDefender is made of light yet durable metal. It works with an AeroBlade fan to propel dust out of this laptop at high speeds. It helps in releasing heat as well. This way, the DustDefender improves this laptop's life. As each AeroBlade of the fan is just 0.1 mm thin, the fan spins swiftly and makes very little noise.

Take the fan speed and cooling power up a notch with CoolBoost's exclusive Turbo Mode. Thanks to this feature, you can manually control the cooling process when the CPU is loaded with tasks.

Combine Gigabit Ethernet and wireless networking with Killer DoubleShot Pro technology. Now, you can give priority to specific apps, like games, and optimize your bandwidth as well.

Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) PCIe SSD technology ensures that you can store files up to four times faster. Add 16 GB of DDR4 RAM to the equation and you have transfer rates of up to 2133 MT/s at 1.2 V. So, you can exchange data between this laptop and an external HDD in no time. DDR4 technology uses 20% lesser power than DDR3 technology, so it makes the Predator more energy efficient too.

Coupled with Thunderbolt 3 technology, the Predator's USB 3.1 type-C ports ensure quicker data transfers and more effective charges when connected to compatible external devices like smartphones. You can also use this feature to connect this laptop to a TV that supports 4K-quality videos for a lifelike cinematic experience.

The NVIDIA Geforce GTX 980M GPU offers 8 GB of memory that's dedicated solely to graphics. Now, games like Bloodborne or CoD: Advanced Warfare will be far more mesmerizing and rich in pictorial detail.

Accompanied by Dolby Audio, the Predator's four speakers, which include two subwoofers, make for an immersive audio experience that'll get you more involved in the games that you play.

Dolby Audio optimizes sounds to give you a blissful audio experience. Not only can you hear music with a heightened richness through the Predator's in-built speakers, the crystal-clear aural details of musical scores will cut through on external speakers or headphones as well. Thanks to a new Dolby Audio UI, you can customize the way this notebook reproduces the sounds of OSTs and music too.

By syncing display refresh rates with this laptop's GPU, NVIDIA G-Sync eliminates screen tearing, reduces display stutter and input lag. So, frames will shift smoothly from one to the other even when you're playing an adrenaline-pumping racing game.

Thanks to IPS technology, you don't have to linearly view this laptop's screen to catch all the on-screen action clearly. This feature also makes colours more vibrant.

If you're into MMORPGs like World of Warcraft or MOBA games like DoTA 2, you can use PredatorSense to set macro profiles. So, when you're battling it out versus another player or ganking someone, you simply have to use a single macro to execute a deadly combination of skills. You can also configure the lighting of the keyboard on the PredatorSense interface.

The Predator ProZone feature offers four customizable backlight zones, many programmable macro profiles and programmable hotkeys. Dedicated macro buttons and a number pad make it easier for you to perform a variety of skills with the press of a button. The ProZone features a customized 'P' icon which you can use as a shortcut key to switch hotkey groups. This feature has a three-level set-up. The backlight changes with each level.

The Predator's RGB-backlit keyboard creates a unique and enchanting gaming environment. This feature also makes it easy for you to see the keys when you're playing with the lights turned off. The keyboard is spacious and comfortable to type on, so you can effortlessly communicate with your teammates while playing a game.

Along with the W, A, S and D keys, the arrow keys are highlighted, so you won't have to give a second thought when you're trying to move in a particular direction.

Now, you can ensure that your stealthy manoeuvring isn't interrupted due to the start menu popping up or your direction being skewed. You can lock the touchpad and Windows key to avoid interruptions due to a slip of the hand.

The Predator gaming mouse offers true 1:1 tracking precision for accurate manoeuvring. The CPI settings range from 50 to 6500, so you can decide on how sensitive you want your cursor movement to be.

This mouse's buttons will last for over 30 million clicks. If you press any of its keys, you'll notice how subtle it sounds when clicked. The keys have excellent tactile responsiveness too.

This mouse features programmable buttons that you can assign specific skills to. Thanks to the angle-snapping function, you can move the mouse's cursor in a straight line. For example, if you're playing an FPS shooting game, minor jumps and shakes won't disrupt the linear movement of the cursor. You can also make it such that specific profiles can be accessed by specific users and their IDs.

Thanks to the right-handed orientation, raised back-end and sleek contours of this mouse, it'll comfortably fit in your palm if you're right handed.

The soft-touch paint on this mouse ensures that your palm doesn't chafe even if you're gaming vigorously. Thanks to the anti-sweat coating, you can maintain a firm grip on this mouse during intense gaming sessions.

This mouse's buttons have been ergonomically positioned and sized so you don't have to strain yourself while playing intently. You can swiftly and naturally use this mouse's button, thanks to this feature.

There are two separate lighting zones on this mouse, each of which is capable of emitting 16.8 million colours. You can set different colour combinations for different profiles, games or applications.

With this new software suite, you can sync your personal settings on to a cloud. It also offers a unified app that you can use to control your gaming gear across various platforms.

There's a nameplate on this mouse on which you can embed 3D prints. This is a great feature if you want other gamers to know your gaming name. You can easily pry this nameplate off too.

You can glide your mouse seamlessly over the durable Predator gaming mousepad. A heavy, non-slip base ensures that this mousepad doesn't slide away from its position when you're playing an intense game. Thanks to heat-bound edging, the edges of this mouse won't wear out even if you've used this mousepad for a long time.

The ultra-lightweight, self-adjusted suspension design and soft cushioning of the Predator gaming headset ensures that your ears feel comfortable even after you've gamed for a long time. Thanks to these features, ambient noise chatter is isolated too, so you can focus on what your next move will be.

This headset comes with a 3.5-mm audio jack, so it is compatible with PCs, consoles, smartphones and tablets.

These headphones deliver crisp, rich and natural-sound audio. They have a retractable microphone that is unidirectional, so it'll pick up your voice mostly in contrast to the noises of your surroundings. Thanks to the mic's slimmer design, you can pull it right out when you need to chat with your teammates or hide it when you need to pack these headphones up. There's also a dedicated mute switch and volume control on the headphones.

Hear everything from in-game footsteps to exciting explosions in crystal-clear detail. These headphones create a refined soundscape for a more immersive gaming experience.

Even though the Predator Gaming Utility Backpack is light, it is very durable. Its 1680D ballistic exterior is water and tear-resistant, so even if you get caught in a slight drizzle, all your equipment will be safe. Water-repellent zippers and military-grade coating on the bottom and top of this bag, don't only defend your stuff from rain but from mud and tears too.
