This is a good start. Hope to see more competitive prices like their Razer blade stealth, and G-sync as well.
Well... the only thing this Monitor has that other monitors don't have is Chroma...
I'd rather trade that for VESA mounting holes, G-Sync or the choice of multiple screen sizes :wink_:

Impressive! Looks like a few industry firsts as far as I know, thinnest bezels, 1ms IPS, and ULMB was only on Gsync monitors before. The tilting will be convinient also. 27" 1440 high refresh is the perfect combo right now too. Curious to see if it passes Nvidia's new tests to be Gsync compatible.
Also really like the flat back of the monitor so its easy to stick on the HDK kit.

No Vesa No GSync No HDR10, but hey RGB and a Nice Stand?


HDR400 is essentially a watered down version of HDR. No where near bright enough for true HDR. Highly disappointed and surprised at the lack of G-sync, especially when every blade is powered by nvidia. Otherwise I think they did well with the design and other specs.

The fact that it is called the "Raptor 27" is a pretty strong hint that a larger, hopefully wider and curved, monitor is coming. Just an educated guess.

Fingers crossed for Raptor 49.

A display that truly enraptures. Set your eyes on Razer Raptor, our first 27” gaming monitor: http://rzr.to/Raptor



Flanked by thin bezels for a more immersive experience, the Razer Raptor features a WQHD IPS display supporting HDR400. The premium display also boasts 95% DCI-P3 color gamut—wider than sRGB for cinematic, life-like hues whether you’re playing games or watching movies.

With a 144Hz refresh rate, get more than double the frame rates of the industry standard for stunning clarity and seamless gameplay. Ultra Low Motion Blur technology keeps response rates at 1ms, so each individual frame stays sharper for blistering fast, precise reactions.

Forged out of a single piece of aluminium, the monitor’s base is also designed with height, tilt and swivel adjustments. Complete with its own cable management system, the Razer Raptor is a perfect fit for any setup.

Love how Razer puts it's on twist of style on their products. Amazing. I of course do which it came at a slightly lower price point but I imagine that style doesn't come cheap. I prefer quality manufsimanufa any day and I know that's what you get with a Razer branded item
What a beauty, I was looking for a monitor and with this I think that my choose is clearly decided!
I’ve got a lot to say about this product since I am very much in the market for pretty much this exact kind of monitor and have been thinking about getting an Asus MG279q or a similar model (but given this being announced I am reconsidering these Asus panels). For starters I’m going to put the claim to rest that no Gsync means this monitor is dead in the water because that’s not true, plain and simple: freesync is the better standard and I am glad that Razer chose to support it (it isn’t proprietary and also doesn’t force Razer to unnecessarily raise the price for us consumers while still supporting variable refresh rate). To continue, this monitor is sick; the color gamut, very slim bezels and great cable management means that this is going to be a very useful and downright beautiful daily driver for practically everyone that buys one. Moving on to the panel specs, HDR and frame rates- they’re fine: 144hz is a great experience and the user base will undoubtedly love it and HDR support -although not fully fledged- will be a definite bonus. Lastly, it’s Razer we’re talking about here: some of the best customer service in the business, and who can forget the Chroma lighting as well as their signature brushed aluminum finish which is practically a trademark of theirs by now.

Now to move on to some of the gripes I have with the keynote so far, for starters, I’d love for it to be higher refresh rate. If it is overclockable up to 165hz, this is pretty much an instant purchase from me -even if Razer chooses to sell 165hz models at a higher price I’d still do it because that’s really the target I’m looking to hit: 2K 165. Next, it’d be an easier pill to swallow if it supported HDR10, VESA mounting -for those of us that want a truly bezelless experience with multiple seamlessly connected monitors,- and/or HDMI 2.1 (with an on-board memory chip for a firmware update whenever the spec for it becomes fully fleshed out) because with such said functionality it would be a dead simple no-brainer for those looking for a 2K monitor with the most functionality. Hell I’d even pay $900 for it with those specs since it would straightforwardly just be better than the competition -which is pretty stalwartly Asus at the minute.

TL;DR- this monitor is sick but if Razer wants to meet the market they’re selling it to (enthusiast users with a mighty need for high refresh rate 2K monitors) then it will likely need a bit more functionality since it is a bit lacking at the minute -especially for the hefty price tag on it.

Also high refresh rate IPS FTW
it should also be available for 20 gazillion razer silver, for the quantum computer gamers who mine silver like the flash
I still feel Razer is arriving with a product that is not anymore what gamers want on their desk this coming year.
Entering the market and not going Ultra-wide for a monitor lunched in 2019 feel to me a bit like shooting your own foot before running a Marathon...

That will leave room for the major brands to propose same gaming experience and refresh rate at a fraction of the price

LMAO 🙂 @Pentalobe you are a sniper
Yes. Just yes. :smile_:
Disappointing, I will stick with my S2716DG 27 which is very similar spec, but includes G-Sync. If they had made a 32-35" inc G-sync for around £800-1k would of gone with the upgrade.
ill be buying this!
Look great!

It looks nice and all, but 2 things worries me:

  • No G-Sync
  • No VESA mount
That stand is thiccccc. I do not mean that as a compliment.

Beautiful otherwise.

Will you have to give Razer credit for a super clean and nicely designed monitor. . .Alienware is spanking them in a enticing gaming monitor. o_O



The only gotcha is that his won't be out for a while (Linus guessed at least 6 months).
I've been hoping for something like this, since last year's BFGD announcement...
Dropping from 65 to 55 is OK, if it's OLED. (-;
