THE NEW RAZER SYNAPSE | Faster. Smoother. Smarter.

To all people who’ve been experiencing the default GPU set to ‘Low’ after restart: do you happen to use CCleaner or alternative software? I always run an automatic custom clean upon starting my PC, but in my experience, after having excluded the following folders from cleaning, the issue appears to be resolved: C:\Program Files\Razer\Razer Synapse Beta Setup\ C:\ProgramData\Razer\Razer Synapse Beta\ Now the custom GPU setting at ‘High’ does remain after restarting.   I don’t use CCleaner or any similar programs but I’ve noticed after the latest update my GPU is no longer reverting to low. I haven’t been on my computer for a few days so I don’t know when they released version 4.0.86.38, but I’m assuming that’s what fixed it (if it’s actually fixed and not just messing with me). So far so good.   After a week and many more shutdowns/logins I can confirm it now saves GPU/CPU power settings.

Can’t find the patch notes from today’s Synapse update, but just want to report that Beta 4 V 4.0.76.501 still automatically reverts to “low” GPU setting on Blade 16 w/4090 whenever it is closed.

Haven’t seen this issue yet, but on restart Synapse had been saving the preferred Custom performance/power settings for my 2022 Blade Advanced. I had it set to Turbo CPU/High GPU. In the beta version, it now defaults back to Turbo CPU/Low GPU after every restart.   Not a critical issue, but annoying.  I came here for this. On my Blade 16 I set my CPU to Medium and GPU to High and any time I leave Synapse my GPU setting is automatically switched to Low. So I can only play games with it on Low.  I’m surprised nobody else has reported this. Unless this is due to a recent change, I’d think there would have been more complaints about it in this thread.  Has everyone else figured this out? Can someone chime in?

How to activate Alan Wake 2

As I said above, make a complaint to the BBB. Razer has an A+ rating and wants to keep it. It's the only way I could get them to honor their $200 gift card promo. They ignored me 2 months and contacted me less than a day after my BBB complaint.

Synapse Undervolting Values

:facepalm: After doing all of this I reset the ThrottleStop voltage and made a .5v offset in Synapse and noticed it populated in ThrottleStop as a .4893 offset. So, Razer's values are actually correct (but applied only to the core). So, I just did a final run with the Synapse undervolt set at .130, which populated in ThrottleStop as .1279 and got a Cinebench score of 27,549.

Synapse 3.0 updater 12/8/2023 issues,

I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago. Customer service was useless. Uninstall/reinstall didn't work.  Had to open the Razer Central panel icon on the bottom right of the taskbar and open Synapse through it. For some reason that made it start back working.  It still only recognizes my system and peripherals 10% of the time so I frequently have to exit out of Synapse and start it back, which makes it recognize my devices.

Crazy Question..

Okay, just realized that the slider only works if core isolation is disabled, which (in my case) limits max watts to around 28-32. So that's pointless.  If undervolt protection is enabled in Bios while core isolation is disabled the undervolt slider in Synapse is greyed out. 🤦🏾‍♂️  So Razer is giving us the choice of having undervolting option in Synapse with a 32 watt power limit or having it disabled at full power, and the only way to overclock is to give up undervolting...🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ So back to ThrottleStop, thanks for nada, Razer.

Synapse no longer provides undervolting options. You now have to use another program to undervolt your system.

How to activate Alan Wake 2

I also recently had an issue with the Alan Wake 2 promotion where when I clicked Buy I saw the FREE GAME with PURCHASE. But after I ordered, all that was in my cart was some wrapping paper which I didn’t really need. And now that I’m discussing back and forth with them and they said they are out of digital codes and are trying to get more. 2 days later they lied and said that I purchased outside of the promotional period. This is completely wrong and for them to back peddle after saying they are trying to get me a code or further compensation. What a waste of time!  Make your case on BBB's site. Razer has an A+ rating. They completely ignored me for 7 weeks and then called me less than 24 hours after I posted a BBB complaint. They've since gone out of their way to rectify my complaint.

No, most companies don't sell gift cards for other companies.  You can buy Amazon gift cards from Amazon, though.

How to activate Alan Wake 2

When I bought my  Blade 16 they were giving $200 gift cards for the free gift. I didn't receive mine. I messaged them in September, November 1st, and November 7th, with my receipt and screenshot of the promotion. They still haven't replied to any of my messages.  They lie. Don't hold your breath.

Impressions after the latest Razer Synapse update?

I can no longer overclock the CPU. At least they didn't break undervolting again.

Bring back undervolting!

In Bios there's an option for undervolt protection. You have to click that option directly in the Bios menu.  I use ThrottleStop. I've researched XTU but decided to stir with ThrottleStop since it doesn't have some of the issues I've read about with XTU (settings sporadically reverting to default, no option to load on startup). Intel may have fixed it since I last researched though.

Bring back undervolting!

Hello all. I’m confused (and a complete noob at all of this.) The undervolt slider for core voltage is still gone, even with the recent bios update version I did. Is that normal? Also, if so, is XTU the way to now undervolt rather then synapse? I am concerned my recently purchased Razer 16 is idling atm quite high I feel, at least the fans are constantly blowing. Apologies if this is the wrong place to be posting.    Once downloading the new Bios you have to go into it and enable the undervolting option. That won’t give you the slider back in Synapse but it will allow you to use other programs (XTU/Throttlestop) to make changes.

Razer Blade 16/18 - Forcing Users to Update BIOS by Taking Away Features

Hi all! New BIOS out (2.05), apparently with the option to enable/disable UVP? Can anyone confirm? It's 2.02, and yes, it gives the undervolt protection option in Bios.

On 9/27 Razer released an updated Bios that added undervolting protection option. This replaced the undervolting protection option in synapse. Thank you for the fix Razer. Thanks!

Razer Blade 16/18 - Forcing Users to Update BIOS by Taking Away Features

Hi! So, I know this update has caused a lot of confusion (myself included).   To confirm, does this BIOS update completely eliminate the ability to undervolt using ALL tools, including XTU and/or Throttlestop, or does it just remove the ability to undervolt using Razer Synapse?   I would really hate if Razer removed the ability to undervolt altogether, but the patch notes on the support website make it sound like undervolting will still be allowed, just only via XTU. Can anyone provide any clarification?  I've made adjustments in TS and saved them. But when going back to TS the adjustments are back to their default values. So, oddly, even though it isn't locked Razer resets the undervolt changes. I'm assuming XTU would be the same but I can't verify.

Synapse Overclocking undervolt slider missing - Razer Blade 16 2023

Yeaaa...so, I just confirmed I have 2.01. I went into TS and made the undervolt change, saved it, reopened the FIVR control and my undervolt change was still there.  BUT, when I closed and reopened TS the values were back to default. So, it looks like you're right.

Razerfolk, you can use another program to undervolt. Razer hasn't locked the CPU, only removed the option in Synapse.  I use ThrottleStop to undervolt the CPU core and cache and it works perfectly.  Actually, here's a video where someone did it to a Razer 16. https://youtu.be/azGt-rH_8qc?si=HCkEXkKSqb_m3W2a It does need to run in the background, like Synapse so you'll have to set it up to run on startup (or physically open it whenever you log on).

Synapse Overclocking undervolt slider missing - Razer Blade 16 2023

I just switched from a 14 to 16 and when I first set the computer up I undervolted a bit. After all of the new computer updates were completed I went back into Synapse and noticed the slider was gone. I’m just glad to see this post. I thought I was losing my mind. For clarity, before I download TS, Razer has left it unlocked and only removed the option in Synapse, correct? *Edit* They haven’t locked the CPU. OP, you can use ThrottleStop or similar program to undervolt. Actually, TS is more usable than Synapse’s options anyway.
