Razer has unveiled two innovative laptop accessories that go beyond the usual headset and mouse. The new Razer Thunderbolt 5 Dock and Razer Core X V2 are designed to significantly boost laptop performance, offering enhanced bandwidth and modular adaptability for a wide range of users. The Thunderbolt 5 Dock stands out with blazing-fast transfer speeds of up to 120GB/s—12 times quicker than USB 3.0—along with smooth, plug-and-play functionality. Meanwhile, the Razer Core X V2 brings desktop-level graphics power to Thunderbolt 4, 5, and select USB4-compatible gaming laptops and handheld devices, serving as an easy external GPU upgrade.

Advanced Engineering for Next-Gen Performance

A standout feature of the Razer Thunderbolt 5 Dock is its ability to drive three 4K monitors at 120Hz using just a single cable. It also includes 8TB of built-in SSD storage, and with Thunderbolt Share technology, users can enjoy effortless file sharing and even control multiple PCs via KVM functionality. Beyond display capabilities, the single cable supports 11-in-1 connectivity, enabling seamless integration of gaming peripherals, external drives, and input devices. Backward and forward compatibility ensures it works effortlessly with both the latest and older hardware. The dock comes with a 250-watt power adapter, capable of delivering up to 140 watts to the connected laptop.

In addition to its high-speed data transfer and multi-monitor support, the dock features Gigabit Ethernet, a 3.5mm audio combo jack, a UHS-II SD card slot, multiple USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 ports, a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port, and an M.2 storage slot supporting drives up to 8TB. The M.2 slot is conveniently located on top with an integrated design. The dock also supports 8K output, making it ideal for creative professionals and high-end gaming setups.

“Razer continues to deliver on the promise of Thunderbolt? 5: extreme performance, unmatched flexibility, and a seamless user experience. We’re proud to collaborate with Razer in shaping the future of mobile computing,” said Ben Hacker, General Manager of Client Connectivity Division at Intel.

Unleashing Desktop Graphics on the Go

When integrated laptop GPUs fall short, the Razer Core X V2 steps in by harnessing the full power of desktop-grade graphics cards via Thunderbolt 4, 5, or USB4. The enclosure is compatible with standard ATX power supplies and accommodates full-length PCIe graphics cards from both NVIDIA and AMD. Its ventilated steel chassis and integrated 120mm fan automatically adjust cooling based on system load, ensuring optimal thermal performance. With Razer Synapse, users can customize fan curves for precise temperature control. Connecting the Core X V2 requires only one cable, thanks to Thunderbolt 5’s high-speed capabilities, and it can deliver up to 140W of charging power to compatible laptops. The Razer Core X V2 is now available for $349.99.

“With the Razer Core X V2, we’re extending that experience—delivering a high-performance external graphics boost that brings desktop graphics to laptops. Thanks to the support of the latest NVIDIA and AMD graphic cards, it’s a seamless upgrade that can transform ultra-thin Thunderbolt enabled laptops into creative or gaming workstations,” said Travis Furst, Head of Notebooks and Accessories at Razer.
