Following up on its first monitor since 2019, Razer has revealed a new version of the Razer Raptor 27 in its E3 2021 keynote. The QHD IPS display sits within a 27-inch chassis that Razer has designed to look and feel far more luxurious than its competitors, with a price to match the premium build, too.

The Razer Raptor looks familiar from afar. It retains the sleek black chassis with the squared-off design, mimicking Apple's Pro XDR display or latest iMacs. The display has extremely slim bezels on the side with only a slit chin to fit the company's logo on at the bottom, which means you can easily set three up next to each other with only a slight space in-between them. The IPS panel provides 95% coverage of the DCI-P color space while also offering a 1440p resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, and support for AMD Premium FreeSync (with G-Sync certification too.) Razer also says this is the first THX-certified monitor, but doesn't detail what that means in terms of performance.

Those specs are all on par for a premium gaming monitor today, but Razer's design takes things further. The back is adorned in a soft-touch fabric instead of cold, milled aluminum, and the Raptor retains the incredibly useful cable management system at the back to keep your setup looking tidy. The stand offers tilt and height adjustment, with the rim of the base featuring RBG that can be synchronized with other Razer peripherals using Razer's Chroma software. The monitor is VESA compatible too, but you'll need to spend $100 more on an adapter from Razer if you're looking to mount this on a monitor arm.
