“The new Blade Pro is the most powerful and versatile Razer laptop ever,
capable of replacing the most powerful desktop computers,” says Razer’s
Co-Founder and CEO Min-Liang Tan. “It is the perfect laptop for gamers
who demand a large display, an insane amount of connectivity options,
and excellent performance with no room for compromise.”
Redesigned and Reinvigorated
Crafted to provide the most performance in the smallest possible
package, the new Razer Blade Pro 17 is up to 25% smaller than other 17”
gaming laptops of its class.
Thermal management has been enhanced by Razer’s vapor chamber cooling
system and a new multi-fan design. This ensures that the Razer Blade Pro
17 will remain cool during the most intense tournaments or video
rendering sessions.
Equipped with the 9th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-9750H CPU with a
base clock speed of 2.6Ghz and boost speed of up to 4.5GHz, the new
Razer Blade Pro 17 can demolish any workload at breakneck speeds. Ideal
for the mobile power user, the new 6-core CPU with Hyperthreading
technology is excellent for streaming in remote locations or rendering a
video on the fly.
Powered by the new NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ GPUs, the new Razer Blade Pro 17
will be available with a choice of RTX 2060, RTX 2070 with Max-Q Design,
or the RTX 2080 with Max-Q Design. Featuring the real-time ray tracing
capabilities of RTX, gamers can experience improved graphical fidelity.
NVIDIA’s Creator Ready Driver ensures that users can enjoy reduced
render times and improved efficiency.
The new Razer Blade Pro 17 will come with 16GB of DDR4-2667MHz
dual-channel memory to handle any work session. For enthusiasts looking
to push the limits, the expandable memory slots now support the
installation of Intel® XMP compatible memory, with speeds up to 3200MHz
for increased bandwidth.
A blazing fast 512GB PCIe SSD is included in every model of the Razer
Blade Pro 17 as well as an additional, unpopulated, m.2 drive slot
compatible with both SATA and PCIe standards. Each drive slot is
upgradable to up to 2TB for users in need of additional storage.
Performance Displayed
Designed for gamers and creators alike, each Razer Blade Pro 17 will
feature a custom-calibrated 17.3” Full-HD (1920x1080p) 144Hz matte panel
providing a beautifully fluid visual experience. Covering 100% of the
sRGB space, the Blade Pro is perfect for getting immersed in content or
creating your own masterpiece.
The ultra-slim bezel design measures in at only 6.0mm thin. A Windows
Hello-capable IR face camera is placed at the top bezel, allowing for
easy and secure access via facial recognition.
Superior Connectivity
The new Razer Blade Pro 17 offers the latest connectivity options
including three USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, one HDMI 2.0b port, a
Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet port, a UHS-III SD card reader, and two USB3.2
Gen 2 Type-C ports (one of which doubles as a Thunderbolt™ 3 port).
Wireless connectivity has also been upgraded with Bluetooth 5.0 and the
new Intel Wireless AX WLAN card capable of achieving up to a throughput
of 2.4Gb/s.
The Razer Advantage
The Razer Blade family represents the convergence between craftsmanship
and performance. Each laptop is CNC-milled from a single block of
aircraft-grade aluminum and anodized with a matte finish to create a
sleek and scratch-resistant exterior. The OS remains bloatware-free
without any unnecessary apps slowing down performance.
The large glass touchpad comes complete with Windows precision drivers
to ensure that every click is perfect, and each key is individually
backlit allowing users to fully customize with any of the 16.8 million
colors offered by Razer Chroma.
