$3200 laptop.......No mini Displayport out put???

I have a Blade Pro and running 35" 1440p 120hz G-Sync monitor via DP from the TB3 port. I was not able to get it to work properly using more than a 6ft cable though (10' cable used, it said 120hz in properties, but moving windows around the screen was choppy)... so keep that in mind when buying the correct USB-C to DP cable. I just plugged in this one today (thanks Amazon for 1 day shipping) and so far so good... https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074V5MMCH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 FYI... It is showing in the Nvidia properties that G-Sync is running. Also... there is a new version of the Nvidia drivers to take care of some BSODs that people have been experiencing on 431.60. Here is a link to the thread... /latest-nvidia-drivers-v431-65-for-blade-owners.51097/#post-498576 BUT... I'm unable to achieve anything above 60hz on the HDMI output... any thoughts on that??? My second monitor is a 1440p 144hz. I've tried multiple cables... even one rated for 8K

Latest Nvidia Drivers (v431.65) for Blade Owners

I ran into a BSOD after installing this driver on a brand new Blade Pro 17 with a fresh install of Windows. I have Power Options set to 'Do Nothing' when closing the lid. When I closed the lid and re-opened it about 10 minutes later, it was not happy... everything was running slow and eventually the BSOD popped up showing a NVidia file as the cause. I tried to grab my phone to take a pic to get the file name that caused the problem, but it rebooted on me. The Windows System Logs just show it as an unexpected restart and list nothing as the cause. Let me know if you need anything to help troubleshoot.

2019 Blade Pro 17 - Backlight Bleed

Case #(*Removed for security purpose) Was on hold on and off for 25 minutes yesterday waiting for Escalation Team. Was then told they would call me back... never happened!! On phone again now. Last day before return for refund and start negative review campaign to warn others that this model has issues and support fails to address within a month.

2019 Blade Pro 17 - Backlight Bleed

I am working with support on replacement I think with what they sent me and tested themselves (White Glove Treatment), we are on laptop #6... I was asking the forum if I'm unique or if there is more of a widespread problem with this model.

Latest Nvidia Drivers (v431.65) for Blade Owners

SylvanasMageNice to see support kicking in. Yea... if only the conversation continued. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting and supplying information then... nothing. So far, the only thing that has worked well for me is a fresh install (not system restore) and a specific order reinstalling all the drivers. There appears to be issues with both Nvidia drivers and Synapse 3 on this model and I would be happy to supply whatever is needed to correct the issues. Low level support does crowd control and the engineers don't get involved. Trying to find or speak with management is next to impossible. This company has so much potential, if only they would step it up a bit. Personally I would rather see quality laptops over toasters, custom vehicles and energy drinks.

Everything you requested has been sent, including the files. Thanks!! What about the new Geforce Drivers (436.02)... Should I upgrade and see how things go? Does it include whatever was changed in the 431.65 to appease unhappy Blades?

2019 Blade Pro 17 - Backlight Bleed

I switched to a 15" OLED. No backlight = no backlight bleed. Although, 60hz... but... I typically use an external monitor to game. Now I get OLED vertical banding on 5% grey... gotta love technology. lol

Razer Blade 15 RTX 2060 low fps

Make sure v-sync is off. Double check your performance settings in Synapse to see if you are running in 'High' CPU & GPU vs. 'Balanced'.

Has anyone managed to crack a 18000 firestrike score with the 2080 max q?

Yes with the 2019 RBP17_2080 I had over 18000 with stock settings, but when I changed to the 2019 RBA15_2080_OLED I cannot hit 18000 with stock settings.

Do you guys get this in your blades as well?

ThT86I believe that I might be making a record here, regarding how many times you can RMA with razer support 😜 Nope... I had many RMAs with the RBP17 due to light bleed and after 4... or was it 5... "White Glove Service"... Many Many months nightmare... I got them to replace it with a 15" OLED model... no backlight = no light leakage. Smaller screen, 60hz, room for only 1 m.2 and lacking extra fan (lowers some GPU performance)... But, the OLED is a great screen and I mostly game using my external monitor, so it works for my needs. They came out with the 4K 120hz on the 17" right when they gave me the 15" exchange... it is not OLED, but I think it is better regarding light bleed. Oh well... maybe next year I'll go back to 17. Gotta finish paying for this one 1st... lol

JoikansaiBLB on FHD mate is usual thing on ips panel, glossy display is less maybe free due glass panel pressure that prevent it, of course Oled would be different but the display tech is different. However on long term usage they may have different problem, my MBP13 that at first has no BLB issue start showing it after like 4 or 5 years usage due pressure how often I open and close the lid, and Oled might have burn in issue. I'm talking 'extreme' light bleed that washed out colors on portions of the screen... I understand and can accept some light bleed, but not what I was having. It got even worse if I dared to open and close the lid... kinda a typical laptop function. The pic below was the replacement screen after my 1st RMA. Not only was the light bleed not better, they threw in a lit pixel as a bonus. I'm not an ignorant, young, perfectionist... been in IT for over 30 years and it was disgustingly bad and even worse considering it was a $3200 laptop. I do expect a higher level

Performance with Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1T PCIe m.2 SSD & Sabrent 2T

I will put the Samsung back in and check. Currently I have the Sabrent Rocket (non-Q) 2T drive installed and it is odd that write is higher than read. Temp did not exceed 43C

JoikansaiHow high is the disk temperature? High may throttle the performance. Samsung maxed at 53c

ttsesmFor what it is worth and to give an update for my case, today and finally after 6 months got a new unit (shipped from Hong Kong with an assembly date 04/2020) with the same layout as my original purchase (I was very welcome to that). However, guess what? the same two issues are there to the new unit as well, especially the high pitch noise on microphone output. I am not expecting anything else to be honest since it seems apparently to be a generic problem on the OLED screen batch units (I guess a hardware failure or something). I've wasted extremely too much time and effort and instead of enjoying my blade I was sending it back and forth and seriously I do not want to get in another such loop. If they are willing to do anything else, good, if not I guess I'll have to leave with it and use the experience for next time. The quality of internal mics are and have always been yukky... feedback from other electronics on the same board is very common. You mentioned everything is ok i

ttsesm@PsychoG33k, yup it seems so. That's why I am saying that I am not expecting something more. I guess it is a case where either I learn to leave with it and accept what it is or I take my toys and go to another playground. By the way, from your signature it seems that you have the same model as the one I am stating that I have the issues. Can you check whether you also have it? I do not get the same whine that you are (tested with and without logo on). Although, if the Windows Mic Boost is turned up (+10dB by default), I do get another type of electronic feedback that sounds like a very talkative robot conversation underwater.... best way I could describe it... lol. If I turn down the Windows Mic Boost (0.0dB), it is not as noticeable. Also, I have a fresh installation of Windows 10 installed (upgraded to 2T drive) vs. the OS that comes with the machine... I'm happy to look at/share driver versions on devices as well, if you think it might help.

razer blade 15 2019 advance model battery expanded

Beware sending it in for service... I was told I would get a free battery replacement, but once they had my machine, they would not service it without my paying for new ram, the battery and labor to diagnose the machine. All I wanted was to buy a battery. Horrible experience. I was without my machine for many many weeks and fought to get it back, unserviced, so I can then install a 3rd party battery. Horrible QA, Service, Support and Management from Razer!!!! This was my 2nd Razer laptop that had batteries swell within 2 months of each other... Razer needs to take responsibility for defective batteries!!! I ordered a replacement battery from laptopbatterydirect $75 Good Luck All!! I just bought an X17 Alienware. 165w 3080 :)
