Razer 13" stealth MX150 2019- the misunderstood product

There's quite a far bit of criticism from some reviewers that the stealth 13 MX150 is a pricey machine that is unable to game on. It was clearly a sad and unjustified comparison as the razer 13 with mx150 wasn't being positioned exactly as a powerhouse gaming machine in the 1st place. To illustrate why the razer stealth 13 MX150 is a hybrid of productivity & moderate gaming machine, i had did several tweaks to bring the best out of this little power-machine. It has amazing battery life due to the low power MX150 GPU and supporting nvidia optimus. Check out the battery life calculation from a modded slim windows 10. The best tweak i had was 20 hours 38 mins and with 15-20% screen brightness on idle. My usual battery life for surfing net + productivity usage is 10+ hours on average. Some reviewers say MX150 cannot game at all.? With adequate undervolting , overclocking and configuring it to run at full CPU & GPU performance - i'm getting close to 800 score in heavens 4

Bought the Razer blade pro 17 (2017) 4k GTX1080 in year 2020 ??

Hi Folks, Last month i took a plunge and got the razer blade 17 pro - I7-7820HK , GTX 1080 , 4k screen, 32gb ram , 1tb harddisk from Razer store directly. It was having a massive promotional discount online. Shipment was from Hongkong to my home country , Singapore. I could had chosen some other Acer / Asus / MSI latest models fitted with GTX 1660TI or GTX1070 GPU with the same money that i had paid for this razer but i really wanted to try out this laptop that was selling for USD$4000 back then. I'm just curious was it worth the $4 grand. I currently have another Acer predator 15 inch RTX 2060 model hence, i bought this razer as i wanted a 17inch at a great price. Out of the box, laptop physical and aesthetics were great. Excellent chassis strength and rigidity. No wobbly plastic outershell. Screen bezel was rather thick in today's context, probably still acceptable in year 2017 design. Nevertheless, it has all the bells and whistles that i required ( thunderbolt port ,

razer blade pro 17 ( 2017 ) GTX1080 still kicks ass

My summarizing my 3 month usage of the year 2017 model of Razer blade pro 17 with 4k screen , 32gb ram and 1tb SSD , fitted with Nvidia gtx 1080 . Out of the box , it was hot like hell and throttles badly. It has excellent and top end components all badly fitted into a poorly cooling design razer chassis. The heavens 4 score was only 2600+. after a series of tweaks as follows 1. repasting with LM 2. thermal pads added at Ram , PCH , NVME 3. Disabling raid 0 and running it as normal NVME ( much improved write / read than raid0 as raid0 will heating up the nvme really fast) 3. undervolting CPU and GPU 4. fans leaks seal 5. additional copper pipes mods The best results i got from heavens 4 benchmark is 4232 ! this performance is probably higher than most rtx 2080 Max q laptop. To summarize, in order for any gaming laptop to reach the maximum performance of it's hardware, cooling is of utmost importance. Its useless to have the highest specs cpu & gpu in a badly designed chassi
