Posted this on gaming-gaf but I'm sure there are plenty of laptop people here who are looking for the next big thing(macbook pro announcement next week too).

Razer just revealed info about it within the past hour and the specs in this machine is amazing. Clench up, because here it comes: The Blade Pro starts at $3,699, or £3,499 (that converts to around AU$4,815). Obviously VR ready

Key specs
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080
6th-gen Intel quad-core i7 processor
17.3-inch screen, 3840x2160-pixel resolution
Mechanical keyboard
VR-ready
Dual storage 512GB SSD and 1TB HDD
32GB of memory
16.7 by 0.9 by 11 inches (427 by 23 by 281mm)
Aluminium chassis
7.8 pounds (3.5kg)
Ports: USB Type-C, Thunderbolt, 3.5mm jack, 3xUSB



It's super thin

Pascal chipset is amazing huh? Can fit all of that in something that small. For people who are saying "WTF" at the price, come back and compare it to the new macbook pro at Apple's reveal next week

I like the fairly simple straight forward design of this laptop and the specs are indeed beastly but no surprise, the price tag matches. Still I could see potentially picking one of these up down the road once a newer sleeker model comes out a year later and the price on this drops.

That ram speed is a little disappointing but I don't even know if they make like 3000mhz ram for laptops.

 

[BruceCLea]

Dear God. Hold me. I want one. 😍😍😍








I can't afford that.

 

[Levyne]

Wouldn't pay that much for something that I wish I could upgrade in 2.5 years. But it does look very nice.

 

[hateradio]

But how hot does it get?

Yeah, gaming laptops are a particularly expensive niche.

 

[MrToughPants]

Does it have to be in a freezer to run at safe temps?

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Looks amazing. Why not an i7-6820 though? And like others have mentioned, how hot does this puppy get?

 

[SteveO409]

Hopefully not that bad

 

[TAJ]

A mechanical keyboard, too? Sorcery.

 

[PaulKersey]

Pretty nice, but I feel like the 4k is overkill for me. Which is probably increasing the price a good amount.

 

[Valtýr]

Gonna buy this and browse Twitter on it.

 

[Rentahamster]

Those are some beastly specs in a small form factor. How far we've come.

 

[jwhit28]

Are Razer's PC products thought of highly? I only know them from their shoddy fightstick ruining fighting game tournaments to the point that their sponsored players had to use Madcatz products.

 

[mackattk]

I will be ecstatic if amazon accidently sends me this laptop instead of a $10 screen protector.

 

[MartyStu]

Cool. Will try to get my office to buy this for me.

 

[Trouble]

God damn that thing is a beast. I wonder how much more the 2TB version is.

E: Not sure how I feel about the offset keyboard, though. I get it for gaming, but for regular typing that could be really uncomfortable.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Cool. Will try to get my office to buy this for me.

Good luck man.
