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

Can't log in razer central. WHY?

I can't log in razer central. WHY? I know my password, I don't need a template speech. Razer will have a problem not mine.

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?

Upgradeability of the RZR Blade Pro 17" 4K 2017 model

Just got a refurb Razer Blade Pro 2017 17" 4K model. Its the model with a i7 7820HK, 32 GB of RAM, two 256 nvme ssd (512 raid 0 I believe), and a geforce 1080. Clearly a steal at just under 1900 bucks. Just wondering if anybody knows how many slots for ram and ssd the thing has, and whether Id void the warranty by opening it up and upgrading it myself. If you work for Razer, I registered the device with the appropriate numbers and it is connected to my Razer account on synapse as well. That should help. Ideally, Id like to upgrade both the storage and RAM. THANKS.

24x7 Power ON

Just wondering, do many of you leave your battlestation on 24x7? Not just for playing games, or mining but even during idle state as well? As an IT tech/engineer, I utilise my PC as a learning tool about my OS features and how to re-engineer so that it delivers better performance and so on. By leaving it on 24*7 it allows me to have that thorough interaction so that if it crashes, I like to be there to analyse the issue and come up with suggestion for easier fixes and bad&good applications. They say turning the PC ON and OFF too regularly can cause issue to start up source files and drop the lifespan of PSU. Is that true? or is it just some made up story. Share your idea of your PC/Battlestation Power ONs

Why is Synapse and Macro failing so hard?

I have Synapse running and my Razer Mamba Elite registered. It is showing up on the Synapse program. I have created a macro. I assigned the macro to a button on my mouse. As soon as I do that, it shows a red symbol near the button on the diagram and says I need Synapse for this to work. I am literally in Synapse. I have tested it despite the red symbol, no luck. How brain dead is this program to recognize my mouse but not recognize it?

Replacing Keycaps

Recently Razer has released a new line of laptops which finally added backlight for the alternate key functions. I was wondering if it might be possible to replace the keycaps on older models to have the translucent text for alternate functions. My questions: Would it even work? It seems like enough light would leak from the leds just by looking at the sides of my keys that it would improve nighttime visibility a lot. Are the new keycaps compatible for swapping to older model laptops? Is there any source where one could purchase said keycaps? If anyone else is interested in this project or has any experience with it feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Chroma Visualizer Lag

I've update and reinstalled Razer Synapse 3 twice and still get the same results for the Visualizer. It only lags on my Cynosa Keyboard but my mouse and mat work perfectly. All devices work perfectly when I use the Audio Meter. I also tried the old 3rd party visualizer and the results are the same. Everything used to work perfectly before the last two Synapse update. Please check on this

Stuck below 60 FPS on Destiny 2

PC Razer Blade 15” with GTX 1060 with Max-Q design. I recently jumped ship to PC with Destiny 2s Cross Save Function and at first I was limited to 30 FPS and updated my driver and now I’m stuck between 45-55 when playing. I have ensured the frame rate wasn’t capped in game and V-Sync is off but I don’t have my settings even on high and still stuck below 60 FPS. One of the reasons jumping over was to have a higher frame rate and better visuals overall but I’ve reach my limit on troubleshooting to try and figure out how to past this limit. Looking for help so I can thoroughly enjoy playing this on PC.
