Razer has been busy. After announcing its purchase of THX earlier this week, the company has now updated its largest gaming laptop to be VR-ready.
For the best PC-based VR experience, the 17-inch Blade Pro packs an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics processor with 8GB of GDDR5 VRAM. You'll have absolutely no problems hooking up an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive and running it at full speed.

Under the hood, powering Windows 10, there's a 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ quad-core processor capable of Turbo boosting to 3.5GHz, 32GB of DDR4 2133MHz RAM, and PCie SSD storage options of 512GB (2x 256GB), 1TB (2x 512GB) or 2TB (2x 1TB).

For audio, it's got side-mounted stereo speakers (which seems like an odd position to place them). There's also 2-megapixel web cam on the front.

The keyboard now uses low-profile mechanical keys for faster response times (a must for hardcore gamers) and the trackpad is no longer also an LCD screen; it's been replaced by a larger glass trackpad. The 10 programmable display buttons are also gone, replaced by a scroll wheel.
For a 17-inch laptop, the Blade Pro is quite thin -- 0.88 inches thick. It still weighs a ton at 7.80 pounds, though.
