Razer Announces "NEW" Razer Blade!

Firstnecron

Razer has announced an update to its Razer Blade.  I feel like Linus will be quite happy with this, as I remember one of his complaints were the use of the TN panel and I believe also the resolution used at that time.  The new Blade is going to double the resolution (going from 1600 x 900 to 3200 x 1800), and includes an IPS panel, rather than the TN one.  The rest of the hardware is really to be expected.  To me, at least, the screen was the big update and seemed necessary. :)

870M uses the Fermi architecture. I posted an article on the news section about the new annoucement and the only cards that use the new maxwell architecture are the 820M, 830M, 840M, 850M and one variant of the 860M.

 

The 870M and 880M are Fermi rebrands.
