Acer is the maker of the best selling Chromebooks available on the market. Today it hopes to push that lead even further ahead with the introduction of the Acer Chromebook 13. This new Chromebook is notable as the first to be powered by an Nvidia Tegra K1 processor. It's available in three configurations ranging from US$279 to $379.

While both Acer and Nvidia blew a fanfare to introduce the Acer Chromebook 13 as you can imagine Nvidia focussed the most upon the capabilities, strengths and qualities of the Tegra K1 processor;

its quad core processor offers faster general computer processing than many competitive processors
its graphics processing capabilities are also ahead of the pack which can help with graphically rich WebGL apps, utilising Unreal Engine 4 and Unity 5 for instance
its power efficiency means that you can achieve great battery life, up to 13 hours in the case of this new Acer Chromebook 13
