    It’s not really competing with desktops though. You can’t just buy a new GPU and add it to this. Just like you can’t buy a 6" cube case and add components to it beyond ram and ssd usually.

    It’s more akin to a laptop or SFF prebuilt pc. The perf per dollar there is not good either. Value for gaming is really bad nowadays.

      Its a form over function fashion statement that is would have been significantly underperforming for the intended price, in absolutely is under performance for the actual price.

      You’re right, its not competing with desktops. Its competing for fashion space on the entertainment stand.

        I think this is absolute garbage, but people will still buy it. https://www.razer.com/gaming-laptops/razer-blade-14/RZ09-05305ES3-R3U1 It’s $2300 for a mobile 8gb 5060.

        People have been spending $3000-5000 for 5090 since release. A thousand bucks is nothing these days for so many (and totally out of reach for even more.) This isn’t intended to be selling millions, they only have tens of thousands of units anyway.

          of course its garbage.

          You can tell its garbage because it has the razer logo on it.

          and yes, people are stupid. mind numbing hordes of people are disturbingly, unsettling stupid.

          Doesnt mean we cant discuss the flaws of a product.
