What problem is this solving?
- lttlrck 13y agoLack of modularization?
- mburns 13y agoComputers are extremely modular already. Plus, you don't need to buy a proprietary interconnect and case that only one vendor provides.
- bicknergseng 13y agoModular, but not necessarily modular done right. I'd much rather plug and play than take the time to screw in each component and run wires around and slice my hands on heat sinks made out of razer blades. If that means we have to go with a proprietary mb... someones gotta take the first step. I don't see why this design paradigm couldn't use existing components, like the Level 10 should have been designed.
- dippyskoodlez 13y agoFor quick and dirty modifications they may not be 'done right', but from an engineering standpoint there are MANY limitations preventing exotic designs like this from even being viable, not to mention the cost of proprietary modules.
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoComputers are increasingly unmodular and integrated; e.g. the proliferation and continued advancement of system-on-chip designs. Its only a matter of time until this starts hitting the high end, where we will see fewer and fewer parts that are not put together in a fab.
- egypturnash 13y agoKeeping the design interns busy?
- asd 13y agoMaking "desktop" computers not look like ass.
- Patrick_Devine 13y agoRazer has been trying to focus on making stylish PCs for the gaming community. This seems like a natural extension to their product line. Just look at the Blade laptop; it's an incredibly thin (and cool) gaming PC meant to compete head-to-head against the MacBook Pro. I think it looks great, but my concern would be that of others who have already commented. Modularity is great, however in an increasingly un-modular world I'd be worried about sinking money into the platform only to have Razer release a new, incompatible version in the not-too-distant future.
