    I had one of these 2014-2018. I didn't have the dock or controller as they're quite hard to come by and Razer released extremely limited quantities of the keyboards. If anybody has this: DO NOT download the graphics drivers from Razer, they crashed the system, get them from Nvidia. Update to Windows 8.1 (I tried Win10 and it frequently crashes). You can easily upgrade the RAM, SSD, and even the WiFi chip so you can have 5.0ghz WiFi.

      Fairly sure the Switch is based on this. This thing was designed by Razer in conjunction with Nvidia. And the Switch is also an Nvidia system so... Yeah... Nintendo prides itself on controller revolutions but actually it was the Vectrex that introduced the analog stick and CAD derivative technologies to home consoles seriously the Vectrex was pretty impressive at the time. Even though the Vectrex wasn't a big success Nintendo realised that it had potential and so they borrowed these concepts from the Vectrex to use with the much newer and much more advanced Nintendo 64. That's how it happened...

      Actually, the Switch hardware and firmware were both largely designed by nVidia. If they hadn't made a deal with Nintendo, we'd likely have seen a very similar Shield.

      For comparison, how much tech has improved. This has .29 teraflops of performance at $1500 dollars. While the Steam Deck has 1.6 teraflops of performance at $400. So 5 times the performance at 1/3 the price in 9 years.

    EU isn't the only one with metric either, I assume. But, your point is valid and Metric system becoming universal would save a lot of hassle for a lot of people.
    To me, It doesn't really matter though. You can always google info about conversions and it's easier than ever. Also, to be fair, since Linus didn't know about oz and still gave info in imperial tells me that most of his viewers are from US, which seems like a real solid reason to me.

But despite that I'd have to give Razer a big thumbs up for making still a great product :D

    I have high hopes for this type of device. I see this as a competitor to the nintendo switch. However, I hope that newer models will have usb ports on the device itself as well as the ability to use multiple bluetooth devices at once, so that many controllers can be used for multiplayer couch gaming. I hope tablets become the new desktop pc.

    It is expensive, and it is a niche product, but there's not a whole lot else that can deliver full PC games with that level of portability and if that's what you need this is a good option. I can see a little bit of competition with NVidia's Shield, but it's really pretty different even if they have pretty similar purposes.

    If no one has answered your question yes you can play league of legends on this tablet. However, LoL isn't a very graphically intense game. I bought a laptop for about $500 and I play LoL on maxed out settings with 45-60 FPS. It's a nice and unique gadget but I would recommend something less expensive for what you're looking to do.

    I wished I had one :( I won't use it for big games like NFSMW or AC3 but it's good enough to play MW2 online as I play it everyday. It'll be also very cool to take it to graphic designing classes showing your adobe works rather than taking a normal notebook :3

    Dude this tablet is a BEAST I'm pretty sure you can play anything you want on it haha It's a powerful tablet If you look at the specs it's almost like having a gaming laptop in tablet form. Like he said in the video. "A Gaming laptop in tablet form".

      @AwesomeSauce7176 6 років тому

      Linus liked it. He was defending it, but that doesn't change the fact that it was 1,500 dollars and kind of sucks lol. I think Linus used to be a Razer fanboy back when he made this video.

    The 690 doesn't always scale as well as you'd expect, so the titan will have more reliable performance, and in some titles it will have higher framerates.

    I wish people would get over this hatred for windows 8, it's an awesome OS if you give it a shot, and if you really want to be that stubborn, get one of the many cheap (or sometimes free) 3rd party programs that bring back the old start menu and reap the benefits of windows 8

    oh I'm not interested in it either, but I'm not interested in an iphone and that doesn't stop people from buying the new model every time. Keep in mind though this should NOT be compared to a standard desktop pc setup. This is a MOBIL device. More like a gaming laptop, but without being anywhere near as bulky.

  • @JaconSamsta
    @JaconSamsta 11 років тому

    Yeah, on my laptop I am happy as long as I can play my games at 60FPS and even do go down to 1366x768 which is totally fine for even a 17,3" screen.
    It's a weird what gaming is turning to and the only one profiting from it is AMD/NVidia because they can demand extreme price raises for an increase of a few FPS (e.g. 7950 vs 7970)

  • @ethancedrik

    There is an advanced Windows 8 keyboard that you can enable in the Windows 8 Metro control panel which allows you to do stuff like Shift+Tab and CTRL+ALT+DEL

  • @BLitzRunner77
    @BLitzRunner77 11 років тому

    In all honesty, the price of this machine is pretty dang crazy, but when you look at the specs, I can see why. It literally out specs many of the hyper expensive alienware crap that over heats in a month. It is ultra portable, touchscreen/keyboard enabled, has a 256gb ssd. Its expensive yes, but if you plan on lugging around your 1500 gaming pc on a plane or during a car ride, good luck. Its all preference I guess.

  • @morgo52
    @morgo52 11 років тому

    I think this is a project that razer is trying to explore with, much like the switchblade. The market for gaming devices is pretty stagnant and no one else is really willing to go that extra mile to push "innovation" (and i use that sparingly). Just like the WiiU this probably wont sell to a lot of people, but it's the technology in the generations to come that will, and without this starting point, that tech wouldn't come at all.

  • @robstimrules
    @robstimrules 11 років тому

    I think it's more a hyped product and it is great to see it in this formfactor. But you're right you could buy a laptop with the new 8970m for this price and a lot better specs.

  • @snorkelpig
    @snorkelpig 11 років тому

    think about it spongbob, a high end gaming laptop would be pretty heavy, and quite big, and Linus said that if the tablet's performance was measured by weight, it would be the best tablet out there. Also, $1500 isnt high end for a gaming laptop

  • @ShasXV
    @ShasXV 11 років тому

    The price is high but think about this it is first generation Gaming Tablet think about the R&D that had to go into this product just to make it work right and function there will be revisions and i don't see it staying at that price forever. They have spend 2 years if not more developing and making this this product alone.

  • @Da12q45
