New 0.66-inch Razer Blade claims to be "world's thinnest gaming laptop"; indie devs successful on Kickstarter can get Pro model for $999.

Razer today announced the latest in its gaming laptop line, the ultra-thin 14-inch Razer Blade. Described as the "world's thinnest gaming laptop," the Razer Blade measures 0.66-inches and is said to feature "more power-per-cubic-inch than any other laptop in the world."

The laptop will be available for preorder beginning June 3 at $1,800.

The Razer Blade is powered by a 4th gen Intel Core processor, the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX 756M GPU, and is said to feature boot speeds up to four times faster than a traditional 5400-RPM notebook. It sports 8GB of 16000 MhZ DDR3L memory and comes with 128GB of total solid-state storage. Options for a 256GB or 512 GB SSD are also available.

"We've designed and built the thinnest, most powerful 14-inch laptop in the world," Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan said in a statement. "Thinner than a dime and more powerful than other traditional desktop replacements today, we've created an entirely new category of thin and powerful laptops that is generations ahead of other PCs."

The new Razer Blade features an LED-backlit HD display with a native resolution of 1600 x 900. It boasts a custom-made trackpad that features multi-touch support. The laptop's keyboard is full-size and backlit and features full anti-ghosting capabilities and programmable keys.

A 17-inch Razer Blade Pro will also be available at $2,300. It includes a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 765M graphics card and Windows 8 64 bit. Not all will need to pay full price for the system, though, as Tan explained today that independent developers that have successfully funded a game through Kickstarter can buy the laptop for $999.
