Razer is looking to expand its customer base with a new lineup of Blade PCs aimed at creative types.
The Razer Blade Studio Edition laptops, unveiled at Computex, are upgraded versions of the company's Razer Blade 15 and Razer Blade Pro 17 gaming PCs. Both sport 4K displays and run Nvidia's latest Quadro RTX and GeForce RTX graphics processors—also unveiled at the show—32GB of RAM, and 1TB of NVMe storage.
In a bid to "exceed the demands of professional content creators," as Brad Wildes, SVP of Razer's Systems business unit puts it, both laptops include Nvidia's Studio Drivers "optimized for performance with creative applications."
The Razer Blade 15 Studio Edition includes a 4K OLED touch display, Intel Core i7-9750H processor, and Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000 mobile GPU.
The Razer Blade Pro 17 Studio Edition has a new 4K 120Hz display panel, an Intel Core i9-9880H processor, and Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000 mobile GPU, which Razer says are "a series of firsts" for the lineup and make it "rival even the most powerful of desktop workstations."
For those who are concerned that a laptop won't cut it when it comes to truly intensive tasks, Razer says both laptops can connect to the Razer Core X ($370.88 at Amazon) external graphics enclosure. As we noted in our review, the Core X "can juice up nearly any Thunderbolt 3-equipped laptop with a late-model graphics card for a sizeable performance boost. It's a good value if you're willing to forgo the de facto docking ability that other graphics boxes deliver."
Pricing and release dates were not announced, though Razer said they will launch later this year.
