Hello! I’m looking for advice on choosing a laptop. I’m based in Indonesia, and I’d like to compare the price of this Acer Predator Helios 300 to what it would cost locally. Also, I just checked the current value of my currency against USD.
The Acer Predator Helios 300 (I7-9750H, 6 cores/12 threads, GTX 1660 Ti) is listed at $1129 on Amazon US. If I convert that to Indonesian Rupiah using the latest exchange rate, it comes to around $1396. That’s quite expensive for most people here—some students are saving for months just to buy a phone priced between $160 and $180.
On a side note, how much power does this laptop need to run Assetto Corsa smoothly? I’m planning to use it with my Lenovo Ideapad S340 (Ryzen 5 3500U, 60Hz, 1080p IPS, 512GB SSD, 8GB RAM). It’s estimated at about $470 USD. Comparing it to similar models, the R5 2500U is around $2200 and the R5 3500U is a bit better—though I should confirm these numbers.
I’m also curious if there are other laptops in the $450–$500 range that could match or improve performance for tasks like video editing (Blender, Vegas Pro) and gaming. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks in advance for your help.

It seems the specs are quite high compared to minimum requirements. The suggested options look good, though I’m not sure if you’re ready to explain why yet. If you’re okay with it, I can dive into the details about whether the Acer Predator meets the optimal experience. Once you confirm, I’ll move forward and consider upgrading to Ryzen H-series mobile CPUs with GTX 1650s like the Asus TUF series, along with a solid SSD. Thanks for your response!
The R5 laptop seems capable of handling a high-resolution 1080p video at full quality. Its 512GB SSD is solid, and the IPS display at that price point is impressive. For a comparable model, an 1650 laptop would be a reasonable alternative, with similar specs and pricing options for an M.2 or 2.5" SSD.
It's significantly more affordable than the Predator, yet the GTX1650s still has a modest 4GB VRAM which feels a bit tight for 2020.
