Razer Unsheathes the Blade

[Nouw]

If it is a gaming laptop then why did they go for an i7 and not an i5?

i7 is not for gaming.

Really? Why not? I got this laptop solely for the i7.

I would suggest these gaming laptop to instead allow consumers to upgrade and customize it however they want like a desktop. That would be refreshing to the industry rather than getting charge a butt load of cash and stuck with it forever.

Because it's overkill and comes with expensive features that don't really benefit gaming at all.

Aaaah understood. No big loss as the laptop I bought was insanely cheap for the i7 but unfortunately, the graphics card isn't as nearly as good.

Even if that thing DIDN'T cost 3x what I could get a decent gaming desktop for, I wouldn't trust it further than I could throw it underwater. Razer seems to be having some pretty horrible build-quality issues lately. It's bad enough when a $60 controller (Onza TE) shits out after a month, I'll be damned if I'm going to blow three weeks' pay on an underpowered laptop to do the same thing.
