Razer has let the cat out of the bag at E3 2021, revealing the 14-inch Razer Blade gaming laptop which, for the first time, features AMD hardware to give your gaming a real boost.
Introducing the New Razer Blade 14 Gaming Laptop
OK, so we have seen Razer’s 14 inch laptops before. However, the last time was three years ago, and it certainly didn’t feature any AMD processing power. Well, now laptop gamers and Razer fans can look forward to a laptop that is reportedly one of the fastest in its class.
The laptop comes in black, and you can buy three versions, each with slightly different features and a price tag to match. The Blade 14 starts at $ 1,799.99 for the base model, with the top-tier model retailing for $ 2,799.99.
What Are the Razer Blade 14 Gaming Laptop Specs?
As mentioned, the Razer Blade 14 comes with an AMD processor (a first for any Razer laptop). Here are the main specs for all three models…
Razer Blade 14 – Full HD 144Hz – GeForce RTX 3060 – Black:
- AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX
- Windows 10 Home
- 14″ 144Hz Full HD
- GeForce RTX 3060
- 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD
Razer Blade 14 – QHD 165Hz – GeForce RTX 3070 – Black:
- AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX
- Windows 10 Home
- 14″ 165Hz QHD
- GeForce RTX 3070
- 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD
Razer Blade 14 – QHD 165Hz – GeForce RTX 3080 – Black:
- AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX
- Windows 10 Home
- 14″ 165Hz QHD
- GeForce RTX 3080
- 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD
So, as you can see, the main differences between the models is the screen resolution and refresh rate, and the GPU. Both of these criteria get better the more you pay. The base model is only a 1080p resolution display, while the second and third tier models come in QuadHD resolutions. There is no 4K option at present.
What Other Features Does the Blade 14 Gaming Laptop Have?
As you might expect, the Blade 14 comes with plenty of Razer’s signature bells and whistles. The devices all come complete with per key full Razer Chroma backlighting, THX Spatial Audio, for an improved sound experience, and plenty of ports so you can hook your other devices up easily.
The bezel at the top of the screen carries a 720p webcam, so you can use the device for work and video calls, alongside gaming. Gaming laptops are genuine workhorses, and should be able to tackle most work scenarios before you get down to some serious playtime.
Dimension-wise, you’re looking at a tiny 0.66 x 8.66 x 12.59 inches; superb for portability, and the Blade 14 only weighs in at 3.92 lbs (or 1.78 kg).
Will You Invest in the New Razer Blade 14 Gaming Laptop?
We wouldn’t blame you for being excited about the new Blade 14 gaming rigs. With the power of AMD’s Ryzen processor behind it, this is certainly one gaming laptop to beat.
