Razer has been developing their new high powered gaming tablet for some time after it first unveiled to the public it back in CES 2o012, and ran a Facebook campaign back in October to see if demand was right for a launch.
Now at CES 2013 this week Razer have launched their new gaming tablet as the Razer Edge, dropping the Project Fiona code name. The Razer Edge is powered by a choice of 3rd gen Intel Core processors supported by up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM.

Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder, CEO and creative director explains:
“When we decided to design a tablet from the ground up, we did it to create a phenomenal experience for mobile gamers. By combining the best of PC and console gaming with Windows 8, we’ve created a true gaming tablet,”-“Clearly, the critical acclaim and community support the Razer Edge has enjoyed suggests we hit the mark. Now, we get to celebrate the reality of what was formerly a dream with the audience for which this groundbreaking tablet was made.”
