Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Razer Blade 15 to be very good for gaming and AI, while the Eluktronics RP-15 is good.
The Razer Blade 15 outperforms the Eluktronics RP-15 in gaming and 3D tasks due to its superior graphics card, the Nvidia RTX 3070 Ti compared to the Nvidia RTX 4060, and a higher screen refresh rate of 240 Hz versus 165 Hz, which translates to smoother visuals during high-speed gameplay. Despite both laptops having similar screen quality and resolution, the Razer Blade 15's refresh rate advantage makes it particularly attractive for fast-paced gaming and 3D applications where screen fluidity is crucial.

Eber Anthony | October 2020
"To conclude, I’m genuinely impressed with Eluktronics and what they have been able to deliver with the RP-15. You see this is all about maximizing performance, cooling, and giving users the most flexible I/O, and then wrapping it into a chassis that doesn’t feel super cheap. Let’s also not forget the price point, I think they have really nailed it in that department."

Allen Ngo | March 2022
"The 2022 Blade 15 offers roughly 15 to 25 percent faster graphics performance and 20 percent faster CPU performance over last year's Core i7-11800H and RTX 3080 model. Thankfully, the system doesn't need to run noticeably louder or warmer to achieve faster results, but both power consumption and battery life take a hit. The higher consumption in particular appears to be a trend amongst many 12th gen Core laptops including the Schenker Uniwill Technology GM7AG8P or MSI Vector GP66 when compared to their previous generation counterparts. We're also glad to not see below-average CPU performance which was the case for the 10th gen Core i7-10875H model."
