Well the Razer Blade is probably the only one you'll find. There's a reason other gaming laptops are so thick, it's called cooling. The Blade is pretty prone to high temperatures due to it's thin design and since it's thin, battery life isn't going to be great either. If you want to blow $2500 on it go ahead, but I don't see the point in basically looking for an Ultrabook that can game.

They all suck. They just suck differently. Sort of like prostitutes.
Heat dispersion is very, very, very, very, very, very important in PCs. If you don't have a good cooling system, parts can fry up and cost you thousands, especially with this pc. Thinness also has drawbacks. It sacrifices 5 frames or so for lean design. It also costs $2,499 which is far overpriced considering the hardware is somewhat low for a computer for that price. I like that switchblade ui, though.

This is all that needs to be said, honestly.
Tablets, ultrabooks, and other "paper thin" electronics simply do not disperse heat well enough to be used for anything other than web browsing, and even then they get far too hot.
If I recall the first Razer Blade was a sad joke, it cost $2,800, came with a TN panel 1080p display, an unresponsive useless touchscreen thing in the keyboard, an i7 (outdated at its time), 16GB of 1333Mhz RAM, claimed to be a true gaming laptop with absolutely no bs features and truly meant for hardcore gamers, and here is the best part, it came with a 550m... Yeah it was a sad piece of garbage...

It's pretty much the same thing now except at $2500 and comes with a 660m. The 660m is at least decent, but it really doesn't matter because a laptop that thin is going to need some sort of specialized cooling system to dissipate the heat properly, which the Razer Blade doesn't have.

I would stay away from it even if it was powerful and had decent cooling because tue cover/top looks ugly, plus it doesnt let you change the led colors, which is why im not buying te new orbweaver or deathadder, they might be more comfy and better than the nostromo and deather 3.5g but they only have green led lights, wont look good with a pc filled with blue leds.
