Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
22 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 10.4 ms rise
↘ 11.6 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 42 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (21.5 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
36 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 18.8 ms rise
↘ 17.2 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 44 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is similar to the average of all tested devices (33.7 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM detected 122000 Hz ≤ 95 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 122000 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 95 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 122000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17924 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Predator Helios 300, recensionsenhet från: Acer Germany
Predator Helios 300, recensionsenhet från: Acer Germany

Läs den fullständiga versionen av den här recensionen på engelska här.

Även om Acer har skärt ner på mycket för att hålla priset nere (långsam SSD, få portar, dålig ljudkvalitet) så är Predator Helios 300 ändå en bra enhet.

Inmatningsenheterna och konstruktionskvaliteten är definitivt inte perfekta. Men med det sagt så får man förvänta sig några brister på en enhet för 10.000 kronor.

Man kommer inte att bli besviken när det kommer till prestandan. Till och med baskonfigurationen med Core i5-8300H och GeForce GTX 1050 Ti kan köra dom flesta moderna titlar i 1080p. Men IPS-skärmen, som har hög ljusstyrka och bra kontrastförhållande, lider av bleeding och dålig färgåtergivning. Värmeutveckling och ljudnivå är ganska oanmärkningsvärda.

Allt som allt är denna 17-tummare ett spännande erbjudande för prismedvetna gamers. Batteritiden talar också till enhetens fördel.
