Linus builds an all-Razer gaming setup costing over $8,000, praising the Blade 16 and questioning several expensive peripherals.
Linus sets out to build an all-Razer gaming setup, starting with a $5,000 Blade 16 laptop featuring an RTX 5090 mobile GPU and a 240 Hz OLED display. He tests a laptop cooling pad priced at $170, a 14-port USB 4 dock for about $260, and a Huntsman V3 Pro keyboard with 8,000 Hz polling. The HyperFlux V2 charging system pairs with a 112-gram Basilisk V3 Pro mouse, while $450 Nommo V2 Pro speakers deliver muddy bass and limited clarity. He also checks the Seiren V3 Pro microphone, BlackShark V3 Pro headset, monitor stand, Kiyo V2 webcam, Wolverine controller, handheld dock, and Tartarus Pro keypad. Setup hassles include repeated restarts, crowded USB-C ports, and a monitor dock that limits performance. The final bill exceeds $8,000; Linus says many products feel solid, but Razer’s price premium is hard to miss.
