An absolutely intense machine here with one of the best discounts we've seen.
. Price-wise, that puts it in even closer competition with our favorite gaming laptop, the Razer Blade 15. You lose an inch but gain a superbly designed laptop that makes up for its slightly lacking specs.
The Razer Blade 14 should be paired with an Nvidia RTX 3060, as our own Dave James describes in his review, not the RTX 3080 that comes with this deal. It might look like a nice improvement, but given the grip thermal throttling has on laptop graphics cards, the leap in performance isn't as big as it might seem. You lose it all once the laptop starts warming up—and it will warm up.
The 2022 model has an AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX processor, 16GBs of memory, and a 1TB SSD. The 165Hz 1440p display that comes with the RTX 3080 Razer Blade 14 will skew some of its performance compared to our 1080p tests. At 1080p, with games on basically max quality settings, it could hit a strong 60 to 144 fps. At a slightly higher resolution, you will probably have to fiddle with quality settings and listen to its fans as they try to keep up with the increased demand.
That by no means kills the deal though. The Razer Blade's 14-inch screen hits a sweet spot for 1440p. The screen is small enough for the pixel density to look sharp without the performance impact of a 4K screen. And it surely helps maintain its 90-minute battery life, which isn't particularly more impressive than similarly equipped laptops, but it's not abysmal either.
