Does current Win 10 update break Razer Core X?
I've got a Razer 15" laptop and a Razer Core X. I've always kept the laptop patched, but from what I've been hearing for the last couple of months, current Win 10 updates since about May break eGPU functionality. What has been the experience of the Razer community in this regard? I've not dared update my Razer laptop if it means losing use of the Core X. That thing costs too much to allow a Win 10 update to functionally brick it!

Yup. 1903 (and 1909) both break my eGPU functionality. Thankfully I've been able to roll back to 1803 and everything is working again. I hope this gets resolved before general availability happens in a month or so.

I’m on 1903 with Blade stealth 2017 and corev2 rtx2080 no issues here. However on Blade 15 2018, i rarely use this with core since 1070 is still powerful enough, I experienced a lot bsod on gpu workload (not on egpu setting, maybe due my tweaks since I saw on other forum same model users are having no issues) so in my case i reverted to 1809 and it’s fine like a champ again, will wait for several versions and accumulative updates and try again.
