These upgraded GPU configurations includeThunderbolt 5, a first for a laptop.
The Thunderbolt 5 standard provides single-direction bandwidth up to 120Gbps and 80Gbps of bi-directional bandwidth.
Thunderbolt 5 should be a boon for high-speed data transfer, low-latency display technology, and next-gen peripherals.
Of course, the new Razer Blade 18 has plenty of other features to justify its insane price tag.
The base model also uses a QHD+ (2560x1600) Mini-LED display with a300 Hz refresh rate.
Customers can upgrade to a 4K 200Hz display, assuming that they can tolerate a slightly slower refresh rate.
