Razer unveils new Blade Stealth ultrabook at CES 2016

With an optional external graphics system

During CES 2016 show in Las Vegas, Razer has unveiled its newest Razer Blade Stealth notebook, a 12.5-inch ultrabook packed in an aluminum chassis that gets its additional power from an optional external graphics system, called the Razer Core, which connects to the notebook via Thunderbolt 3 port.

The Razer Blade Stealth notebook itself is quite a decent system on its own as it is based on a 12.5-inch IPS touchscreen with either 2560x1440 or 3840x2160 resolution, depending on your choice, Intel's Core i7-6500U CPU, 8GB of RAM and a PCI-Express SSD. What it lacks is a decent graphics card and that is where the Razer Core comes in.

The Razer Core is an external graphics card system that connects to the Razer Blade Stealth via Thunderbolt 3 interface. It has its own 500W PSU and can support a dual-slot PCI-Express graphics card drawing up to 375W of power. It also comes with four USB 3.0 ports and an Ethernet port.

The Razer Blade Stealth notebook starts at US $999 with a 1440p screen and a 128GB SSD while the 2160p option with 512GB SSD goes up to US $1,599.

Unfortunately, Razer did not reveal any details regarding the price of the Razer Core external graphics card system but hopefully we will hear more about it soon.
