Razer Blade Stealth Review: A Sleek, Sexy, Black Metal Ultrabook

You know what there needs to be more of? Premium looking & feeling Windows laptops. Seriously, have you been to a BestBuy or other electronics store and wandered into the Windows laptop section? The slight glimmer of metal here but mostly, cheap-looking plastic devices that are either clunky or overpriced. Now that’s not to say there isn’t some that have good internal hardware at least, but if you want something with decent power and yet also

Ever catch someone looking at your screen? You know, when you feel someone’s eyeballs looking over your shoulder, turn and catch the last moment of them quickly turning away? It’s interesting to think about, really. I mean, I know I’ve done it myself to others without even meaning to.

How to Use an External Graphics Card with Your Laptop (Video)

While doing the review of the Razer Blade 2016 gaming laptop, I came across the Core: an external graphics card housing made by the same company. What is an eGPU?

Razer Blade 2016 Review: So Much Power in a Small Package (Video)

Laptops are getting ridiculously powerful. With the latest generation of graphics cards that have all come out last year that are smaller, cheaper, and more powerful than the generations before them, it’s no longer hard to find laptops with comparable desktop power without having to go for a professional gaming laptop which are frankly unfairly called laptops. Try putting one of those on the top of your lap and let me know how that goes
