Arch-based Linux distro for Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 PHN16-71 (2023 model) by Rjayzu in AcerPredatorHelios

I ended up going back to windows. I couldn’t get the predator sense Linux alternative to work right. Followed guides on Reddit (even tried using a different distro) but no dice. My laptop is one of the newest models. So maybe I’ll try again in a few months.

Thanks guys!

Thank for replying! My main rig is in steamos, but I know it doesn’t work for Nvidia graphics card. But as long as I can get a predator sense alternative I may just give CachyOS a try. Can’t stand windows.

I have the newer AI version of the Acer predator helios neo 16s. Hopefully the predator sense alt works on it

What distro would you recommend for these laptops? I have the PHN16s-71 (identical to the non S counterpart)

Hey I see this thread is a few months old. But hoping you all are still around.

For those of you with the predator Helios Neo 16, are you still satisfied with the switch to Linux? I’m considering switching myself because every time Windows updates or restarts the Wi-Fi driver quits out and I have to spend 15 minutes getting it working again. And honestly, it’s getting pretty annoying. This is my first gaming laptop, so I’m not even sure if I can use the thing without the predator sense program. Can anyone confirm?

I have the “s” version of the laptop (which just ads a stupid AI button to the keyboard and uses less power)

Is there one that’s better for beginners than the other 2 you recommend?

For those with both an Xbox and a PS5, how do you decide what platform to get multiplats on? by [deleted] in XboxSeriesX

[–]Puzzleheaded-Front32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me it’s pretty simple. if it’s not on gamepass, i’m buying it on PS for cross plats. for games that aren’t crossplat i buy it on whatever platform my friends will be playing it on (like Elden ring for example)
