Other upgrades include a better webcam, plus a fingerprint-resistive coating to keep smudges off that nifty chassis.
Razer has revealed its new Blade 17, equipping the gaming laptop with Intel’s 11th-gen CPUs and beefing things up on the GPU front with Nvidia’s RTX 30 Series graphics cards. The refreshed Blade 17 provides the ability to have Intel’s Core i9-11900H, which Razer notes is the beefiest processor ever to be offered with the machine, an 8-core (16-thread) chip capable of Turbo up to 4.9GHz. Alternatively, the Core i7-11800H can be specified instead. Up to an Nvidia RTX 3080 can be chosen when it comes to the discrete graphics card, and Razer has also made the decision to introduce a fingerprint-resistive coating with the Blade 17.
