There’s been much speculation about which chips will power the next Razer Blade 14, one of very few premium options in the portable 14-inch gaming space. This morning, those chips were finally revealed. The processor will be AMD’s Ryzen 9 7940HS with eight cores, 16 threads, 24MB cache, and 35-54W TDP. The GPUs will be Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 4060 and RTX 4070.

Pricing is… well, it’s high. The RTX 4060 model will be $2,399, while the base RTX 4070 model will be $2,699.99. Both will have 16GB of DDR5 RAM. There will also be a fancy mercury (white) model for $2,799.99, which will include 32GB of DDR5 RAM as well as the 4070. All three of the models mentioned will have 1TB of PCIe Gen 4 storage.

Razer and AMD have provided some performance estimates, and those include surprisingly little about power consumption — they basically just mentioned that the Blade would get up to 10 hours of video playback to a charge, which is not a massive jump from previous years. That’s interesting because power consumption, rather than raw frame rates, has historically been the big advantage that AMD has over Intel.

Nevertheless, Razer and AMD shared a number of performance benchmarks comparing a 14-inch Blade system to a Zephyrus M16 with a Core i9-13900H. It claims that the Ryzen system will deliver better performance on a number of games, including Borderlands 3, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and Final Fantasy XIV, including a 12 percent increase in World of Tanks Encore and a 13 percent increase in Borderlands 3 performance. (It does also admit that the Blade was two percent slower in Cyberpunk 2077.)

AMD also claims faster performance in various applications, including small increases in Blender and Cinebench R23 performance, and a whopping 11 percent increase on Passmark CPUMark.

Now, that comparison to the M16 is all well and good, but I think we all know what the elephant in the room is: another Asus laptop called the Zephyrus G14, which is powered by this exact same AMD processor. Not only does that device come with an RTX 4070, but it can also come with an RTX 4080 and even an RTX 4090 — and that 4090 model is the same price as the 4060 Blade listed here. So, you know, there’s that to keep in mind.
