Prometheus Means Business
Internal code name “Project Prometheus”. An initiative to bring high performance without the typically required THICC and bulkiness.
Inside Look
Many only look at the outside appearance when considering a laptop, but enthusiasts like ourselves like to see the beauty of the inside!
Proper Cooling
This 17.3″ laptop weighs less than six pounds, has a 1″ z-height and packs the punch of laptops far larger and heavier thanks to the impressive fans and thermal design.
Inspiring Design
The Prometheus product line received inspiration direct from it’s heart, the heatsink design. Can you see it now?
Discrete RGB Light Bar
This customizable RGB light bar is ready to add flair to your day. Power it off and you’re ready to acclimate in a professional environment with a product that doesn’t scream child’s play toy!
Power At Your Fingertips
The power mode button (on the left) features Office, Balanced and Beast Mode. Choose your mode based on your performance or fan acoustic needs. If you want to skip the power modes altogether, you can also set the mode button to become the Maximum Fans button at any time!
The power button is held in for a few seconds to power the system on, similar to a cell phone to prevent accidental power-ups.
Large Glass Precision Touchpad
A first of it’s kind. The trackpad gives you so much real estate there are actually two zones! Double tap the top right hand corner to disable the right section. This assists if you lay your hands flat on the touchpad and will be doing a lot of typing but still need to use the trackpad.
Tap the top left of the trackpad twice to disable the entire trackpad if you’re planning on using an external mouse.
Double tap either respective corner to turn them back on.
MUX Controller
If you haven’t heard of a MUX controller yet, be thankful you have now! The XVII features a MUX controller that allows you to disable the internal graphics card and run completely off of the dedicated NVIDIA RTX graphics card for optimal performance.
Power Out The Rear
A USB Type-C Port with DisplayPort connectivity and one HDMI 2.1 port which are both connected directly to the dedicated graphics card. A 2,500MB/s ethernet jack and AC power connectivity in the back keeps cables out of your way.

2 USB 3.1 (Gen 1) ports and an SD Card Reader
