Model - PH315-52 
After having issues with the ac adapter (180w) refusing to provide power while the laptop is in high power draw (playing games), I did some digging and found that some people were the same problem and that the power supply just isn't sufficient for the maximum power draw. However, I also found that my laptop didn't come with the 180w adapter that it should have, instead coming with a 135w adapter. I would just buy the 180w adapter and hope that these other people, like me, just got the wrong adapter without realizing, but I would prefer to get an adapter that provides more wattage instead (240w or 330w). 
I managed to find this: https://store.acer.com/en-us/330w-adapter-with-power-cord-black?___store=usa_en 
The image of the input cable is too low quality for me to tell if it's compatible with my laptop. 
TL;DR - Are there any 240w or 330w ac power adapters that will work with my Predator Helios 300?
