What is the Future of USB Type C for RAZER?

Hi, hope you are doing great I have been wondering for the past years what is the future for Razer and USB C... Its 2019 and a lot of brands are FINALLY moving to USB C and giving it the recognition it deserves. I read recently that Sony’s PS5 and the Next Xbox will move to USB C. The New Xbox Elite controller will also be USB C. Dell already added 2 USB C ports to their XPS laptops and more are coming soon. Apple already stepped way ahead on this so anyone who owns a Macbook Pro like me has already moved on with USB C. To which i must say is soooooo much better in every way. I have been wanting to buy a Razerblade for sometime now and i was just waiting for the Razer Blade 15” Gun Metal color like the Stealth. So you guys decided to go with Silver and white keys..... which is a pass for me. But the second thing i have been waiting for is for Razer to incorporate more USB C ports to their Razer line up. I already have USB C to HDMI and USB C to Micro cables so i really dont care a

Can Min come overseas?

I am sort of maybe speaking on behalf of every RAZER insiders and gamers that do not live in US or Singapore. But as per title states it. Just wondering, what other countries does Min visit for technical or gaming conferences? I would like to meet Min the CEO of RAZER, but not all the way in US or Singapore. Can you come to New Zealand someday? What other countries would you like Min to visit? Come on raise your voices, so that RAZER can hear!!! How to achieve the below without Min's help? Or I need to spend few hundreds on plane tickets and accommodations, which I like to use on upgrading my gaming station.

Got a 4k Razer Laptop and want to game capture at 4K 30 FPS look here

Anyone familiar with my YouTube channel, I create a lot of content for people who like me own a Razer Blade 15 and want to get the best out of it. I'm about to do a bunch of videos on how to set ThrottleStop settings to keep your Blade as cool as possible or maxed out for as long as possible. Problem I have is yes I can use OBS to record the screen or external video camera but that either skewers the results or makes it hard for viewers to see. So an external view capture card is required. Razer do an excellent one from what I see called the Ripsaw HD but as the title suggest it only does 1080p capture. I have the 4K Razer and I want to upload 4K content for YouTube etc so I needed a 4K version. Having looked around I found the AverMedia GC533. See what you think.

Convert Windows 10 pro Hyper-V to VMWare Workstation 15

Microsoft decided to remove RemoteFX support with a hint that there may be GPU-P coming in the future. That may just be for Windows Hyper-V server as lets face it they don't focus on consumers any more. So I thought are others hypervisors dropping GPU support and to my surprise VMWare Workstation 15.x even has direct x 10.1 support. Tried it out and amazing. So I thought, I will convert my Hyper-V to Workstation as I am sure it will be easy but no. Lots of topics for people going from Workstation to Hyper-V but not the other way round. Took a lot of work but I found the solution and created a YouTube video for those interest. Got some more VMWare workstation videos coming up and I would stay tuned for them especially for people who used Razer Laptops.

Escape button macro

Hey guys, quick question, I have a Razer Nostromo (yes a little outdated) but it works great. I am using it for autocad drawing and all the macros that i have set work great except for the escape button. When i set a button to match the "escape" button, it screws up my main keyboard and nothing works and i can't even type anything. So I tried creating a macro for the key up/down escape button and assigning that to the nostromo, and the same thing happens. Any thoughts?

For Pro and Serious Gamers - What do you avoid in your daily rituals

I am sure all you pro and serious gamers; in order to stay above the competition you go through series of life adjustments, rituals or ways to keep yourself focused on that competitive gaming. But then if that life pattern breaks, you see a minor to major slops in your gaming. When was the last time you've been to ski trip? Recently, I just came back from an annual snowboard trip, and my goodness how my entire body feels so crippled. I made a sloppy move on my snowboard maneuver, caused me to land on my right chest with a serious impact. For last few days, every small to major things I do, it just causes too much stress on my chest that even using my mouse is like a hell. Even waking up in the morning creates a great level of stress to my chest, I thought about sleeping vertically. If I was a pro gamer, I would maintain my life pattern rituals to keep myself focused and ski trip is not in my list of things to do to maintain my pro gaming spirit. There is a video about the life of Mi

Are Power Adapters Universal For Razer Blade Pro 2017?

Hello, I'm trying to work out if I can buy a second hand Razer Blade Pro 2017 from the US and use my existing power adapter that I got when I bought my Razer Blade Pro 2017 in Australia. Does anyone know if the power adapters for a Razer Blade Pro 2017 bought in Australia will work (as well) when plugged into a Razer Blade Pro 2017 from the United States? Aka are the power adapters universal? Thanks P.S. When I go on the Australian version of the official website, it shows 165 Watt power adapter. And when I go on the US version of the website, it shows the same 164 Watt power adapter. So this to me suggests I should have no problem just swapping power adapters which is nice. But I would still appreciate some confirmation if possible.

So the Razer Mamba 16000 still isn't compatible with Synapse 3

So the Razer Mamba 16000 still isn't compatible with Synapse 3 although the app clearly recognizes it as you can adjust the Chroma effects through the visualizer and it works. Therefore I think I am upgrading to a newer one, suggestions on what to buy? A sweet lady from Razer support suggested a Mamba Elite. what do you guys think?

chroma studio is acting a bit weird

So, I have a couple of issues with my chroma studios that I can't find a solution to 1) my HDK's led strip seems to forget its rotation and get's reset to left to right 2) Audio responsive effect will work fine on my headphone output, but once I switch to my speakers it turns into some kind of rave 3) When I choose the ambient occulsion effect, I can select the zone on my second monitor, but it will still keep track of the main monitor first seems to be an issue with HDK software in general, considering how weird it works with a built-in visualizer Still, any help or advice would be helpful

Razer Blade 15 + Core X Chroma + GTX 1080ti Performance Issues

I currently have a new mid 2019 Blade 15 with 240hz Display and RTX 2070 and have recently purchased a Razer Core X Chroma for my GTX 1080ti for a graphics boost when I am at home. I am experiencing heavy performance loss with this 1080ti in the Core X enclosure and I am not sure what the issue is other than the TB3 overheads, which I was told were around 10%. Currently this is performing noticeable worse than my built in dGPU 2070. I have tried it on just two games at present. Battlefield V and Control. 2070 dGPU – Control – 60fps BFV – 70fps 1080ti Razer Core X – Control – 40fps BFV – 50fps Both of these were on the exact same settings on an external 1440p monitor wither plugged into the Core X via a display port cable or into the Blade 15 2070 via a mini display port cable. As you can see the 1080ti settings are a lot worse than the built in 2070 dGPU and I want to know if I have missed something or need to change any settings. I have tried multiple things including – Updati

USB hub used for five Razer peripherals

Hi, I am currently running the following peripherals: Razer Naga Chroma, Blackwidow Chroma V2 and an Orbweaver Chroma. Tomorrow I am going to be getting both Razer Nommo Chroma and a Goliathus Chroma. Stupidly, before I purchased them I did not think about the additional USB slots that would be needed so I am currently looking for a USB hub that might be able to run all the peripherals together or at least the majority of them. Would any particular USB hubs be better? Or would they all work for this purpose? I am just a bit concerned about the amount that I would be running from it. Because of this, I have been looking at the more expensive powered hubs. These are the two I was looking at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/SuperSpeed-Transmission-Charging-Powered-Extension/dp/B01FS9Q01K/ref=sr_1_4?qid=1564429317&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_browse-bin%3A1028263031&s=computers&sr=1-4 https://www.amazon.co.uk/ORICO-Powered-12-Port-Charging-Adapter/dp/B00K5TKFH4/ref=sr_1_13?qid=1564429317&r

another mini mouse...

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/razer-viper-gaming-mouse-optical-switch,40073.html Can you do one mouse for people with large hands, even razer death adder, i hold it just with finger tips and i have no grip. And mouse with laser or weight above 100g are useless for competetive games. My hands 19 cm lenght 12 width. Since i grow my hand i don't have any grip at all. I remember when i was kid i would have sick grip and be every game best on the server... I don't believe it there is not single mouse on market for large hands. Even 130mm is not enough on leght i need at least 140 and width at least 80, disgusting to see another small mouse, i am not buying anything your products suck anyways... I am better on office mouse for 3$ than on razer da...

Why razer choose Ice Lake processesors instead of Comet Lake for RS13?

I am planning to buy the new razer blade stealth 13 but I would like to know why Razer decide to install Ice Lake processors into the razer blade instead of the Comet lake, witch has 6 cores and get up to 4.9Ghz of speed! On paper I would choose the Comet Lake processor but maybe I am not taking something into consideration . Anybody has any idea?

Will Core X + Vega 64 help my loud hot and slow 2017 15" mbp drive dual 4k displays?

I do web development on my 2017 15" macbook pro (2.8H Ghz Core i7, 16gb RAM, Radeon Pro 555) using clamshell mode with two 27" 4k monitors often at scaled resolutions in order to get extra real estate, and often run Docker, multiple VS Code windows, multiple web servers, multiple browser windows, outlook, excel, slack -- all the usual stuff you'd suspect. Sometimes VSCode will slow to a crawl and even keyboard presses will take a second or more to register in my editor. Activity monitor will show "kernel_task" as high as 400% in these episodes, which tells me there is serious throttling going on due to high temps. I know there are behaviors I could change that would mitigate against this, but am curious if an eGPU would make a big difference here. Running two external 4k displays with scaling can't be easy for my mbp's graphics card, and outsourcing that to a Razer Core should make a noticeable difference in terms of my mbp temperature, right? Does anyone have experience with this?
