Hello, I'll also reach out to support today when they open up. Asking the forum if this is expected behavior before deciding to return the unit to Best Buy store. Bought Blade 14 2022 edition (with RTX 3070 Ti) from Best Buy "few days ago". So far so good, except for following odd symptom while laptop is on power supply and set in Windows 11 to not go to sleep but set to have display turn off after 15 minutes. Following happened several times already: Power LED blinks green, because screen off But screen does not come on after moving mouse, track pad movement or keyboard. Even depressing the power button does nothing. Only way to get the laptop to come on is by depressing the power button for extended seconds. But that will turn off and turn laptop back on, which causes Windows 11 to "restart", losing my work. The laptop has no BIOS update. Is there known issue with Blade 14 2022, where screen goes off, blinks green but gets stuck and will not come back on, without reset th

Razer marketized the base model 2020 (I do need a ethernet port) with USB-C charging. So I bought it. However, neither with the additional power supply and the USB-C cable they supplied I managed to charge the notebook. Not even with my Dell 90w USB-C port I can charge it. It works smoothly with another notebook from HP. Razer Support recommended to deinstall the ACPI driver (I did, it only stopped the fan. J, are they trying to burn my CPU and GPU?!). Didn't work. I don't think they know what they are doing. Anyone else before I return the device to the shop? Product name: Razor Blade Base 2020 Product number: RZ09-03286G22 Thanks for any hint.

Just purchased this new Razer Blade 17. Connecting to an external monitor with a USB-C-to-display-port cable, and a straight display port cable. From either of the Thunderbolt 4 (USB-C) ports. No signal detected from monitor. Whenever I plug in a monitor, NVIDIA control panel shows Optimus as the active graphics adapter. And the NVIDIA GPU becomes disabled and I'm unable to select. See screenshot. I just used the Razer BIOS updater and updated the EC as well. Model: (*Omitted) Any help is greatly appreciated!

05-24-2022 For those who have issues with Razer Blade takes time to Boot, Restarts Several Times before Booting, Time & Date are not up-to-date, & Bios Settings keep reverting back to default settings. This is commonly caused by our CMOS Battery, some laptops use CMOS battery, Coin cell Battery, or Wristwatch battery. however other Manufacturers don't use CMOS batteries. To fix it, you can buy CMOS Battery, you have to open the laptop and check which type. as far as my Razer Blade uses it is CR1220 / ML1220 Coin Cell Battery. You can purchase it online that has a wire directly, or you can peel the plastic and remove the connector for negative, and positive terminals and place the new battery. make sure to check the negative & positive on the battery. there are several youtube video tutorials regarding CMOS batteries. See attached CMOS battery this can be purchased online or at any Computer Shop, make sure to select the correct size. however, you can still use any Big or Small CMOS

Spent $4650 on your top of the line Razer Blade 16 so that I could have a portable gaming rig with full native overclocking support. Undervolting was the biggest part of that equation. Running -.125 was perfectly stable and gave a 15% performance bump, 10+ degree temp reduction, and much less fan noise under load. Now it's slower, hotter, louder, and has frequent hangs/stutters that weren't there before.By forcing undervolt protection, you've completely ruined the system, my enjoyment of it, and the chances that I'll ever buy another razer system.At least make it optional with a warning...

So I got a 2nd NVMe drive for the open slot on my new Blade 15. But I'm not sure I have the bracket on right after installing it. Is there a video somewhere of doing this upgrade (or even an official Razer doc? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I’ve got a brand new mid 2019 Razer blade advanced. I downloaded all the drivers and am ready to reinstall windows from a bootable usb stick and all drivers from a separate usb stick. I’m running into an issue though and it’s when I choose F12, I only have one option to boot from. I thought, okay, maybe I need to turn on another option in the bios, but I don’t see how to do that either in the bios. I’m hoping there is something I’m missing here. I’ve done this a few times with Alienware laptops and the Razer blade stealth 2018. This is the first time I haven’t seen a usb option. Is there No option for boot from USB in this model? Can a kind savvy person post steps to set that option on this model? I am stumped. Slaymetender

I recently encountered a booting Issue with my blade 15 and it looks like this (not my video), I heard it could be the CMOS battery being dead or whatnot but after reading the comments it appears that even after replacing the CMOS battery it still happens. I also bought a new CMOS battery similar to the one in the laptop (ML1220) but it has a different Connector so Im hoping you guys can also help me source the right one. TLDR:Blade 15 having boot issues like this could be a dead CMOS battery but also something else. 

Just got my Razer Blade 15 (2020) Advanced as all round it it was the best system for my needs as a developer; unfortunately the stock 16gb memory was not enough. Decided to upgrade my system a couple of days ago with 64gb of HyperX 3200 memory. Upgrade went smoothly and everything works, sadly this has been a very negative experience. Whilst the upgrade went smoothly, the process of getting the back cover off was a nightmare. I used a t5 torx screwdriver to get the screws out, the threadlock in the sockets meant having to apply a significant amount of force to get them out. One of the screws in the right corner was just impossible to get out, so much so that I ended up shredding the screw. To get that one out I had to tap the screw with a drill bit. After performing the upgrade, I proceeded to begin reattaching the backplate with the remaining screws. During the process of doing so 3 screws gave way and immediately shredded without applying any force. The quality of these screws in

Hello, I am interested in purchasing the razer blade 14 for my girlfriend for her upcoming birthday this month. It appears that these laptops are out of stock and I noticed that people have been posting on reddit that this model has been unavailable for 3 months now. Does anyone have any inside information on when they will be selling this model again? One of the key reasons I wanted this model is because it doesn’t have soldered on ram, being able to upgrade ram on a gaming laptop is a major requirement which many gaming laptops don’t seem to fill these days. It is my hope that razer doesn’t jump on that bandwagon with their next release. I was going to buy the dock just so I could give her something on her birthday with the promise of getting the blade 14 when it is available, but I don’t want to wait if anyone happens to know if they intend to make their new models with the soldered in ram. My girlfriend wants a 14 in laptop so this is the model I have chosen after checking out all

My battery has swollen, I need to buy new battery to replace it. But it seems that even Razer cannot help me, the customer care email just going round and round and unable to answer my question and giving solutions directly, guess they have to stick to their script like a robot. Anyone knows where I can buy the battery online?

Hi guys, like quite a few other people I had to remove the battery from my 2019 razer blade adv due to swelling. I'm now running without a battery but with heavy game usage the notebook has started to switch off unexpectedly. It looks like it has become more frequent in the latest weeks, and I have narrowed down the cause to a few things: 1) not enough power coming from the brick during high CPU/GPU usage, which causes a sudden switch off due to the battery missing as a backup in case of a peak. 2) a thermal issue: possibly either the CPU or GPU overheating. 3) a windows update 4) a combination of all of the three above. It could very well be a system update which caused a slight increase in CPU usage and therefore (1), or the system overheating certain components as now all of the power needs to come from the power connector rather than being split evenly between battery and brick. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Did anyone had a good experience in replacing the battery? Do

Hi, will it be possible to use the Razer Thresher 7.1 on the ps5, conected only with the usb pen and without the optical cable? If so, will it decrease the sound quality? Thx.

Hi! Does anyone else have an issue where the 2020 Razer Blade Advanced won't pull over 3A @ 20V (60W) from USB-C (or Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C) when connected to a docking station? I've updated to the latest 1.06 BIOS, latest EC firmware, and reinstalled windows 20H2 with updated thunderbolt drivers and everything. The laptop simply will not pull over 3A over Type-C when connected to a dock. I've tried many docks too, including a Dell WD19TB with 180W PSU (90w advertised power delivery for non-Dell systems), Lenovo Hybrid USB-C Dock (90w advertised PD), and recently a Pluggable TBT3-UDZ, which has a 96W advertised power delivery capability. When any of these docks are plugged into my friend's MacBook Pro, the system reports the correct power delivery capability of the docks. However, my Blade simply won't pull more than 60w, no matter what I try. The only way I've seen to get the Blade to pull anywhere near 5A @ 20V (the limit of the official USB-C Spec) is to use a 100W PD charger and
