The Razer Bla­de 14 returns as the world’s most powerful 14-inch gam­ing lap­top – powered by the AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX, and run­ning the fas­test 14-inch gam­ing dis­plays, all in the most com­pact 14-inch gam­ing chassis.

IRVINE, CA. – Razer™, the lea­ding glo­bal life­style brand for gamers (Hong Kong Stock Code: 1337), today announ­ced during their E3 key­note the return of a gam­ing legend: The Razer Bla­de 14. After a three-year hia­tus, the Bla­de 14 is back to shake up the sce­ne as the first Razer Bla­de to ever fea­ture an AMD pro­ces­sor, the 8‑core AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX, offe­ring the fas­test gam­ing per­for­mance in its class¹.

The new Razer Bla­de 14 will also fea­ture up to the NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3080 Lap­top GPU, and up to a Quad HD 165Hz dis­play, all packa­ged into the world’s most com­pact 14-inch gam­ing chas­sis. Roun­ding out the 14-inch power­house are the signa­tu­re Razer trap­pings that have estab­lished Razer Bla­de lap­tops as one of a kind, inclu­ding per-key Razer Chro­ma RGB back­light­ing, immersi­ve THX® Spa­ti­al Audio for dyna­mic sound, and an abun­dant offe­ring of ports to make ever­y­day life easier.

 

“When we intro­du­ced the Bla­de 14 in 2013, Razer chal­len­ged the indus­try to think big­ger, yet smal­ler. The ori­gi­nal Bla­de 14 revo­lu­tio­ni­zed the mobi­le gam­ing land­scape, ear­ned lap­top of the deca­de, and brought us to whe­re we are today,” said Brad Wil­des, Seni­or Vice Pre­si­dent & Gene­ral Mana­ger of Razer’s Sys­tems Busi­ness Unit. “The new Bla­de 14 aims to shake up the indus­try once again by com­bi­ning Razer’s deca­de worth of expe­ri­ence in craf­ting ultra-com­pact and high-end gam­ing machi­nes with the power and effi­ci­en­cy of AMD Ryzen Mobi­le Pro­ces­sors. We are thril­led to bring the ulti­ma­te mobi­le gam­ing expe­ri­ence to gamers with the Razer Bla­de 14.”

“As gamers demand ligh­ter and more powerful form fac­tors in gam­ing lap­tops, we have remain­ed com­mit­ted to our goal of deli­ve­ring best-in-class mobi­le pro­ces­sors for pre­mi­um OEM designs,” said Saeid Mosh­kela­ni, Seni­or Vice Pre­si­dent and Gene­ral Mana­ger, Cli­ent Busi­ness Unit, AMD. “We are exci­ted to col­la­bo­ra­te with Razer, for the first time ever, by powe­ring the Razer Bla­de 14 with the best mobi­le pro­ces­sors we have deve­lo­ped for gam­ing, the Ryzen 5000 H‑Series Mobi­le Processors.”

 

Ultra-Powerful

With the revi­val of the Bla­de 14 comes the birth of an enti­re­ly new part­ner­ship bet­ween Razer and AMD, cul­mi­na­ting in the first Razer Bla­de ever to run on an AMD pro­ces­sor. The AMD Ryzen™ 9 5900HX 8‑core, 16-thread pro­ces­sor fea­tures a max boost clock of up to 4.6GHz, enab­ling it to quick­ly dis­patch den­se workloads, redu­ce laten­cy when gam­ing, and chew through deman­ding workloads at breakneck speeds. The new Bla­de 14 with AMD Ryzen™ doesn’t just offer the hig­hest raw com­pu­ta­tio­nal power in its class, but does it with a cool, quiet effi­ci­en­cy, pro­vi­ding users with up to 12 hours of bat­tery life so they can spend less time near an out­let and more time on the move.

The Bla­de 14 fea­tures the latest NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series Lap­top GPUs, up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Lap­top GPU. Built with NVIDIA’s Ampere archi­tec­tu­re, the RTX™ 30 Series offers impro­ved ray tra­cing and advan­ced AI fea­tures to crea­te more visual­ly immersi­ve worlds. In addi­ti­on to the impro­ved gra­phi­cal per­for­mance, the GeForce RTX 30 Series fea­tures a suite of Max‑Q tech­no­lo­gies such as Dyna­mic Boost, Whisper Mode 2.0 and a resizable BAR that allow the Bla­de 14 to remain silent but deadly.

 

Ultra-Fast

Matching power with visu­al fide­li­ty, the Bla­de 14 offers the fas­test 14-inch gam­ing dis­plays in the mar­ket. Ran­ging from Full HD 144Hz up to Quad HD 165Hz, both IPS-gra­de panels offer excel­lent color covera­ge, rea­ching up to 100% SRGB on the Full HD panel and up to 100% DCI-P3 on the Quad HD panel. The high refresh rate of both panels, pai­red with the inte­gra­ted AMD Free­Sync™ Pre­mi­um tech­no­lo­gy², deli­vers a crisp and flu­id visu­al gam­ing expe­ri­ence. To ensu­re a con­sis­tent and vibrant expe­ri­ence for every user, each panel is cus­tom cali­bra­ted at the fac­to­ry for color accuracy.

 

Ultra-Thin

Con­ti­nuing a lega­cy of indus­try-lea­ding com­pact design, the Bla­de 14 fea­tures an all-alu­mi­num chas­sis, pre­cis­i­on mil­led to redu­ce any excess was­te in the frame and anodi­zed with a mat­te black coa­ting to ensu­re a con­sis­tent finish that is uni­que to the touch and resistant to scrat­ches. To make the Bla­de 14 not just thin but over­all com­pact, the chas­sis dimen­si­ons have been trim­med down to a mere 0.66” x 8.66” x 12.59” – making it the world’s smal­lest 14-inch gam­ing lap­top. To achie­ve this tech­ni­cal feat, the Bla­de 14 uti­li­zes Razer’s uni­que vapor cham­ber coo­ling solu­ti­on ins­tead of the bul­ky and inef­fi­ci­ent heat pipe sys­tems that other gam­ing lap­tops rely on.

The vacu­um-sea­led cham­ber within the Bla­de 14 uses vapo­ri­zed liquid to dis­si­pa­te heat away from inte­gral com­pon­ents, while working in tan­dem with two ultra-low-pro­fi­le fans, each of which fea­tures 88 fan blades at a mere .1 mm thin, equi­va­lent to the thin­ness of a human hair, to pull cool air in and push hot air out, ensu­ring both the CPU and GPU can ope­ra­te at maxi­mum capa­ci­ty while remai­ning cool.

 

The Ulti­ma­te Experience

Desi­gned to be a ver­sa­ti­le tool, the Bla­de 14 boasts an abun­dance of user-fri­end­ly fea­tures that go bey­ond gam­ing to impro­ve the day-to-day expe­ri­ence. Lining the top bezel of the dis­play is a sharp 720p web­cam for taking web calls when working away from the office, with an IR sen­sor for a safe and seam­less log­in via Win­dows Hel­lo. The pun­chy key­board is accen­ted with per-key Razer Chro­ma RGB that can be cus­to­mi­zed to match any of the 16.8 mil­li­on colors available within Razer Synapse.

Flan­king the key­board are boo­ming spea­k­ers that can be tun­ed via built-in THX Spa­ti­al Audio tech­no­lo­gy for gam­ing, movies, or music. Lining the sides of the Bla­de 14 is a ple­tho­ra of ports inclu­ding two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type‑C ports with power deli­very for char­ging when in a bind, two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type‑A ports for con­nec­ting lega­cy items, HDMI 2.1 for easi­ly hoo­king into board room media sets, and a 3.5mm jack for lis­tening to immersi­ve 3D audio with THX Spa­ti­al Audio.

Back to revo­lu­tio­ni­ze the gam­ing world again, the Bla­de 14 is the pre­mie­re 14-inch gam­ing lap­top, offe­ring the best-of-the-best in every cate­go­ry from pro­ces­sing power, to visu­als, to mobi­li­ty, to ver­sa­ti­li­ty. It is the Ulti­ma­te AMD Gam­ing Laptop.

Play. Re-Char­ge. Repeat.

Along­side the Razer Bla­de 14, Razer also announ­ced their first Gal­li­um Nitri­de (GaN) char­ging device, the Razer USB‑C GaN char­ger. Uti­li­zing cut­ting-edge GaN tech­no­lo­gy, the new char­ger is per­fect for gamers, pro­sumers, or tho­se on-the-go. Offe­ring up to 130W of com­bi­ned char­ging power bet­ween the two USB‑C ports and two USB‑A ports, it enables cus­to­mers to char­ge their smart­phone, tablet, or lap­top, while being small enough to easi­ly fit in a pocket.

The GaN tech­no­lo­gy fea­tured in the new char­ger is not only more effi­ci­ent in terms of size and power deli­very com­pared to a tra­di­tio­nal sili­con-based char­ging brick, but also in ther­mal per­for­mance, mea­ning a redu­ced risk of over-hea­ting or short cir­cui­ting of con­nec­ted devices. The Razer USB‑C GaN Char­ger ensu­res gamers and pro­sumers can always stay con­nec­ted and powered up on the go.
