Acer has released its ultra-high-end Aspire Predator gaming rigs, revealed earlier this year. Shipping in two editions, the $1,650 G7700-UQ9300A includes a liquid-cooled 2.5Ghz Core 2 Quad processor, a GeForce 9600GT graphics card, 8GB of memory, and two 640GB drives, while the $2,200 G7700-UQ9550A ups the processor to 2.83Ghz, sports the GeForce 9800GTX video card, and gets an extra 640GB hard-drive giving it almost 2TB of storage. Acer also sells a matching 24-inch, 1920 x 1200 resolution gaming monitor, the $400 G24, that includes both DVI and HDMI ports and has a 50,000:1 contrast ratio with a 2 millisecond response time, according to the company.
