Razer Reveals the Razer Raptor Gaming Monitor Ahead of CES 2019

Published Mon, 07 Jan 2019 07:40:17 -0600

Before we dive into CES 2019 this week, we're starting to see some new tech come our way. The latest being from Razer with the Razer Raptor. We have the finer specs for you below, but the shorthand is that this will be Razer's first 27" gaming monitor, which will have one HDMI, one USB-C port, and two USB-A ports. You'll also find it comes with a custom calibrated WQHD (2560×1440) IPS Edge-to-Edge panel, and comes equipped with AMD Radeon FreeSync adaptive sync tech. That's a pretty fine monitor regardless of preference. The price on it is going to be $700 when it comes out later this year.
