Razer Reveals New Gaming Laptop - The Razer Blade

Razer who has been teasing us for the entire week with the whole PC Gaming Is Not Dead teaser site has unveiled its secrets. It's a brand new gaming laptop. They are calling it the first true gaming laptop, using their unique user interface, which I must assume was something they worked for the Razer Switchblade. The Razer Blade has a Core i7-2640M 2.8Ghz processor, 8GB DDR3 RAM, and an NVIDIA GT555M graphics cards which has a dedicated 2GB GDDR5 RAM. Sounds...pricey. You can check out the tech specs here. Razer is working in partnership with Hewlett Packard on this one and obviously no price point given for this laptop yet. Check out the preview video and press release below...

Razer launches the Razer Blade at PAX Prime featuring
true portability, incredible performance, and a revolutionary user interface

The PC industry today has never looked bleaker.  The world’s largest PC-maker Hewlett-Packard just announced their intention to explore the separation of its PC business. With PC manufacturers increasingly abandoning design and technology in lieu of outsourcing and cost-cutting, the PC industry has seen a severe dearth of innovation in recent years. Gaming consoles have also taken advantage of this innovation slump in the PC industry to garner attention from game developers and gamers alike, to the extent that now PC versions of cross-platform games are often sub-par ports of their console counterparts. 

Razer, the world leader in high performance gaming hardware, introduces the Razer Blade – a full aluminum chassis gaming laptop featuring true portability, incredible performance, and an all-new revolutionary user interface.  With the introduction of the Razer Blade – a feat of modern-day systems engineering and technology, Razer is reinvigorating technological and design innovation for the entire PC industry, and encouraging gamers and developers to return to the PC as the primary gaming platform of choice.
