Earning a multitude of editors’ choice awards from LinusTechTips, PC
Magazine, Laptop Mag and more for its performance and portability, the new
Razer Blade is now more powerful than ever by way of a next-generation NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 graphics processor. Designed with the new NVIDIA Pascal™ architecture, the GPU is three times
faster than its predecessor, with a performance increase of more than 40
percent. The result of this enhancement is incredible graphics power that
allows users to game at max settings effortlessly while enjoying realistic
cinematic experiences with technologies like NVIDIA GameWorks™.

The performance of the new Razer Blade is packed into the thinnest design available
in its class. Measuring just 0.7 inches thin and weighing just over four
pounds, the laptop sets a new milestone in terms of power per cubic inch. Built
with a unibody CNC aluminum chassis, the Blade’s svelte exterior is also incredibly durable.

The Razer Blade is optimized for VR
performance with low latency and plug-and-play compatibility. It also supports
the capture of 360-degree images to view in VR in games that support NVIDIA
Ansel™ technology. This makes the Razer
Blade the most portable virtual reality system available today.

“There has never been a better balance
of performance and portability in a PC,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. “Five years ago, the idea of managing
this level of heat in a small chassis was thought to be impossible, but we did
just that with the original Razer Blade. Since then, we’ve continued to listen to our community and improve upon that
design and thermal management. In many ways, this is the perfect laptop that
was designed for gamers by gamers.”
