Lately, the laptops we've been testing have been incredibly powerful and incredibly expensive. For instance, the MSI GT73VR Titan SLI 4K demonstrated laptop gaming prowess we haven't seen before, thanks to its dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 configuration. It will set you back $3600 last we checked. Soon after we wrapped up that review, another behemoth arrived, and it dwarfed every laptop we've seen in size, specs, and price.


This is the Acer Predator 21 X, and it can be yours for a mere $9,000. Let's see what that small fortune gets you.
