Razer Launches Raptor 27, the First THX Certified PC Monitor

Media Release:

Razer announced the latest version of its multi-award-winning gaming monitor, the new Razer Raptor 27. With a 165Hz display and 1ms response time, the Raptor 27 meets the demand for image quality and speed needed in today’s high-frame-rate and high-resolution AAA game titles.

The Razer Raptor 27 is the world’s first PC monitor to achieve THX Certification, undergoing more than 400 individual tests to ensure color, tone and images are displayed as their creators intended, for a stunning picture quality and level of detail.

Providing increased fluidity at 165Hz, the wide-angle IPS display in the new Razer Raptor 27 boasts a QHD (2560×1440) resolution with support for both AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-Sync adaptive synchronization technology. With a 95 percent DCI-P3 wide color gamut and HDR400 capability, the Razer Raptor 27 offers deep blacks and vibrant colors that take gaming, productivity, and entertainment to new visual heights.

The new Razer Raptor 27 retains the popular design of its predecessor with an elegant matte-black finish to the forged aluminum base, a high-end textured fabric back, and built-in cable management channels running along the backside. To finish the look, the Raptor 27 features Razer Chroma RGB lighting, for up to 16.8 million colors and a variety of lighting effects, which can be synchronized with other Synapse 3 compatible devices. For an enhanced experience, users can also control the Raptor 27’s settings such as color, contrast, and brightness directly through the Razer Synapse 3 software.

For maximum flexibility, Razer are also releasing the Raptor VESA adapter – sold separately and designed to fit all Raptor models, this ultra-slim mount adds a VESA compatible mounting plate to the rear of the Raptor monitor, replacing the fitted base unit and allowing users to mount the Raptor on a VESA compatible stand or bracket of their choice.
