Insanely bad FPS and performance on Razer Blade Advanced (2018)
Hi All, I have the Razer Blade Advanced (2018) with the Nvidia 1070 Max-Q. I purchased this in November 2018) The only games I play are wow classic and fortnite and I get absolutely terrible performance playing both games. I To put it in perspective I just loaded up fortnite for the first time in a few months and was getting 15-25 fps on absolute lowest settings, wow classic gets higher fps generally between 50-80 on absolute lowest settings but often dipping lower to 20-40 in raids. I tried playing Modern Warfare once and had the same issues, incredibly low FPS to the point of unplayability.
I am playing on 1080x1920 in both games, have verified inside Nvidia control panel that the correct GPU is selected, and have even tried doing a factory reset when I reached out to Razer in April ( support ticket # 200418-001692). My temps creep into the high 90's all the time, seeing 95-99c on my GPU or CPU are not uncommon playing these games on lowest settings.
I paid nearly $3000 dollars for this laptop, yet the only two relatively low spec games I want to play are basically unplayable on this machine with pathetic bottom of the barrel fps. This situation is just not adding up to me, I try to call razer support and I can't get through on the phone. I lookup the warranty and they say there is absolutely nothing that can be done since I'm past the 1 year mark.
Razer you sold me a lemon, straight up. I want this issue fixed, or I want a laptop that works.
