A European gamer unknowingly purchased a Razer Blade 18 equipped with the NVIDIA RTX 5090 graphics card, rather than the advertised RTX 5080, due to a pricing error. According to the Redditor "iiT2," they initially ordered the laptop with an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX CPU, 32GB DDR5 RAM, and 1TB of internal storage. However, they received the 18-inch panel laptop featuring the RTX 5090, 64GB DDR5-6400 RAM, and 2TB of PCIe 4.0 storage.
The RTX 5090 GPU configuration is the highest tier available for the Blade 18 series, offering enhanced performance. The laptop also boasts a dual-mode display with a 4K240Hz main resolution and an FHD 440Hz secondary resolution, making it ideal for gaming and multimedia applications. The laptop's specifications include up to 128GB of DDR5-6400 RAM, 2TB of PCIe 4.0 storage, and additional M.2 storage slots for expansion.
The discrepancy in the GPU model likely arose from a labeling mistake during the manufacturing or distribution process, resulting in a significant discount for the lucky purchaser.
