GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR7; 1737 MHz at 90 W in Turbo mode (75 W + 15 W Dynamic Boost)

The same GPU can run at up to 115 W in thicker laptops, so this thin-chassis version should be expected to perform lower. The GPU is soldered.

ASUS		NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU; 8 GB GDDR7; 100 W sustained TGP, 115 W with Dynamic Boost

The RTX 5070 Laptop is the strongest option in the Blade 14; RTX 5060 Laptop versions are also sold. Dynamic Boost shifts 15 W of the power budget to the GPU when CPU load is low. G-Sync is enabled in the NVIDIA Control Panel.

Razer
Display14-inch 3K (2880 × 1800) 16:10 OLED ROG Nebula Display; 120 Hz, DCI-P3 100%, Pantone Validated, anti-reflection coating

On OLED each pixel makes its own light, so blacks turn fully off. DCI-P3 100% means it covers the whole cinema color space; Pantone validation is a factory color-accuracy check.

ASUS		14-inch 3K (2880 × 1800) OLED, 16:10; 120 Hz; 0.2 ms response time; Calman Verified colour profiles

Ready profiles for Rec. 709, DCI-P3, sRGB and Adobe RGB lock the screen to that colour space for colour-critical work. 120 Hz is lower than the previous 240 Hz IPS, but OLED response is very fast.

Razer
Memory32 GB LPDDR5X-7500 soldered to the board; 32 GB maximum

Memory cannot be upgraded later; the right capacity must be chosen at purchase.

ASUS		LPDDR5X 8000 MHz, up to 64 GB; soldered (cannot be upgraded later)

The Best Buy Canada configuration on this page has 32 GB; memory must be chosen at purchase.
