Thinner than a dime. It’s hard to believe how much raw POWER the folks at Razer have stuffed into the Blade. The 14″ tablet sports an Intel i7 at 3.2GHz, a GeForce GTX 765M GPU, a 128GB SSD (with options for more room to grow) and 8GB of 1600 MHz DDR3L memory. Other than memory, this little beast has my MSI GT70 beat, and that’s impressive. We’ve got the full spec sheet and a pretty slick video that shows the system running Crysis 3, TESO, and Metro: Last Light. Given that those three games are some of the most demanding of any on the market, there is no doubt that this beast is built for gaming. Check out the video below and the full spec sheet for the system below:
