It is a reminder of quite how much the latest laptop graphics cards lag behind the desktop kind, though - there being a roughly 40 per cent performance difference here compared to the desktop-grade 3080.

This is among the most powerful gaming laptops around, duking it out for a percentage point here and there with the best from Alienware and Asus. That may not sound too impressive, but you'll see much better results in the 70+fps range if you disable ray-tracing.

The Predator Helios 500 lets you play it at around 55-60fps at 1080p with ray-tracing set to high, and resolution boosted to 4K using Nvidia DLSS. That game is Control, which is still one of the most punishing titles around. Apparently this laptop should be able to take the RTX 3080 to 165W, but we couldn't get it to do so using the standard modes, even when playing a game so taxing the frame rates were down below 20fps. This takes you from delivering around 120W to the graphics card to around 150W - although we did see very brief peaks above that.

Not infinitely wealthy ones, such as the lucky 300 who bought a limited-edition 8,000 Predator 21 X, but reasonably. A laptop like the Lenovo Legion 7 can get you similar performance for almost half the price, which is kind of mad. The Acer Predator Helios 500 is a gaming laptop designed for extreme gamers.

Its performance is excellent, the keyboard is great, thermal control is top-notch and the screen is about as advanced as laptop displays get, even if you can get far higher refresh rates for less money.
