Razer launches Blade 14 gaming laptop – the first of its lineup to feature the 8-core AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX, offering the fastest gaming performance in its class

After a three-year hiatus, Razer finally announces the return of its gaming legend lineup during their E3 keynote – The Razer Blade 14. With the revival of the Blade 14 comes the birth of an entirely new partnership between Razer and AMD, culminating in the first Razer Blade ever to run on an AMD processor.

The AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX 8-core, 16-thread processor features a max boost clock of up to 4.6GHz, enabling it to quickly dispatch dense workloads, reduce latency when gaming, and chew through demanding workloads at breakneck speeds.

It also features the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series Laptop GPUs, up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU. Built with NVIDIA’s Ampere architecture, the RTX 30 Series offers improved ray tracing and advanced AI features to create more visually immersive worlds.

In addition to the improved graphical performance, the GeForce RTX 30 Series features a suite of Max-Q technologies such as Dynamic Boost, Whisper Mode 2.0 and a resizable BAR that allow the Blade 14 to remain silent but deadly.

Display

The Blade 14 offers the fastest 14-inch gaming displays in the market. Ranging from Full HD 144Hz up to Quad HD 165Hz, both IPS-grade panels offer excellent color coverage, reaching up to 100% SRGB on the Full HD panel and up to 100% DCI-P3 on the Quad HD panel.

The high refresh rate of both panels, paired with the integrated AMD FreeSync Premium technology, delivers a crisp and fluid visual gaming experience.

Other Features

Lining the top bezel of the display is a sharp 720p webcam for taking web calls when working away from the office, with an IR sensor for a safe and seamless login via Windows Hello.

The punchy keyboard is accented with per-key Razer Chroma RGB that can be customized to match any of the 16.8 million colors available within Razer Synapse.

Flanking the keyboard are booming speakers that can be tuned via built-in THX Spatial Audio technology for gaming, movies, or music.

Lining the sides of the Blade 14 is a plethora of ports including:

  • two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C ports with power delivery for charging when in a bind
  • two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports for connecting legacy items
  • HDMI 2.1 for easily hooking into board room media sets
  • 3.5mm jack for listening to immersive 3D audio with THX Spatial Audio

Gallium Nitride (GaN)

Alongside the Razer Blade 14, Razer also announced their first Gallium Nitride (GaN) charging device, the Razer USB-C GaN charger. Utilizing cutting-edge GaN technology, the new charger is perfect for gamers, prosumers, or those on-the-go.

Offering up to 130W of combined charging power between the two USB-C ports and two USB-A ports, it enables customers to charge their smartphone, tablet, or laptop, while being small enough to easily fit in a pocket.

Price and Availability

The all-new Razer Blade 14 starts at USD $1799.99 / €1,999.99 MSRP and is available now on Razer website, RazerStore retail locations, and with select retail partners.

The Razer USB-C GaN Charger is available now for USD $179.99 / €179.99 MSRP on Razer website and at RazerStore retail locations.
