Razer’s new Blade 14 laptop is now available for order. The gaming laptop is one of the first to run on an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU. That chip is paired with up to NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti graphics, though you can opt for a less powerful GPU to save some cash. Based on its specs, the Blade 14 should compete with the best gaming laptops.
The 2021 Razer Blade 14 was the company’s first AMD gaming laptop. Razer improved on that model with a refresh to the latest CPU and GPUs, DDR5 memory, and a MUX switch for enhanced performance. A MUX switch lets you disable a device’s integrated graphics, allowing the system to rely on a dedicated GPU. Doing so delivers a performance boost at the cost of battery life.
Five configurations of the Blade 14 are currently listed on Razer’s website. The device starts at $2,000 for a model with an AMD Ryzen 6900HX, an NVIDIA RTX 3060, and a 144Hz FHD display. The highest-end model comes with a Ryzen 9 6900HX, an NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti, and a 165Hz QHD display.
