Razer revamps the Blade Pro 17 with 9th-gen Intel Core and Nvidia RTX in a trimmer package
(PCWorld)

The Razer Blade Pro 17 is one of the first laptops out of the gate with two shiny new parts: Intel´s 9th-gen Core i7 mobile chip, with 6 cores and 12 threads of processing goodness; and Nvidia´s RTX 2080 with Max-Q. Further improvements include a trimmer overall package, narrow bezels, and connectivity to spare. Prices start at $2,499, and product will start shipping in May. The Razer Blade Pro 17 was long overdue for a refresh, and almost everything is new-and more compact. The chassis is 25 percent smaller than the predecessor in overall volume, and about 20 percent lighter at 6 pounds, compared to 7.4 pounds for the prior model. The bezels are 6mm thin and surround the sole display option, a 1080p/144Hz non-GSync panel. To read this article in full, please click here
