Razer has unveiled its “most powerful” Blade gaming laptop to date, which packs more power per cubic centimetre than ever before.<\/p>\n

The new Razer Blade, which Razer claims is the thinnest and most powerful 14-inch gaming laptop in the world, comes with an Intel i7 processor, a stack of RAM, and Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 970M.<\/p>\n

What makes this little guy stand out, though, is its 3,200 x 1800 QHD+ display. Besides the high resolution, Razer said the panel also uses the company’s IGZO technology which gives great image clarity, smooth motions, and better colour.<\/p>\n

Oh, and it’s a touchscreen running Windows 8.1.<\/p>\n

The Blade’s basic specifications are listed in the table below.<\/p>\n
