Hyperboost on the Razer Blade 16 (2024) - is it good? What are other users' experiences using it?

I’ve upgraded to a Razer Blade 16 - 2024.There is a firmware update available to enable Hyperboost support. Razer Blade 16" (2024) | RZ09-0510 EC, Keyboard, and vBIOS Firmware Updater For those of you who have applied the update, do you find yourself using Hyperboost often? Is it good? How hot does the laptop get?I prefer not to apply firmware updates unless there is a benefit. I own the Razer Laptop Cooling pad as well.

Experiences with new Razer Laptop Cooling Pad?

Has anyone had any experiences - good or bad - with the new Razer Laptop Cooling Pad? I know it’s a brand-new product, but haven’t seen many reviews online yet. For those who have it, what are your thoughts? Does it actually cool as good as (or better) than existing alternatives?

Please help me to find keycap for my rz09-0421

Hello dear community. It’s 2 years since I’m looking for a keycap for my laptop Razer Advanced 15, 2022. The key “D” got broken in the first month after the purchase. On daily/weekly basis I’m checking all google and ebay to find this and no luck. Askes Razer support and they couldn’t help. 2021 and earlier models doesn’t fit as they are different size. Maybe community power can help? Maybe another laptop/keyboard model has the same keycaps? Thanks in advance.

Discussion: Expected Battery Life for the new Blade 16 & the Blade 18?

Heyya, I wanted to try to see what the comparative battery life for the two prospective laptops would be and discuss what everyone thought would end up being the expected duration for average and then for heavy usage. I’ve owned over 5 Razer Blade laptops over the past decade and I have to say the battery life for me has caused me to not ever take it outside and work on project in public when I could and sometimes, should. So I am trying to now find the best option for that and I figured the larger battery on the Blade 18 and mini-led screen would be nice to have in Florida’s sunny weather. But now I am debating whether or not the 16 might have the advantage for going with the AMD CPU and OLED display for power saving over light tasks, such as web-lectures, working in Microsoft apps, coding and compiling algorithms on low-level language. I do want to be able to play games in HDR and game on it, but that is mostly just a “distresser” for the end of the day for an hour or two rather than

Razer Blade 18 2025

I cancelled my order for the blade 18 2025 because Razer did let the public know what kind of panel they are using. Can anyone from Razer help?

Razer Blade 18 (2024) 4090 - Unable to update firmware 1.00

I’ve followed various forum posts in an attempt to install the first firmware update to get my BIOS from 1.00 to 1.04. I’ve done the following: Disabled all Device Security Settings (Core Isolation, Memory Integrity, Local Security Authority protection, Microsoft Vulnerable Driver Blocklist) Disabled all Real-time scanning Turned off completely bitlocker (no drives encrypted) Disabled Secure Boot, Fast Boot Performed multiple attempts of disabling driver signing on boot and running firmware update Updated to the latest Intel firmware I cannot get this firmware to load. When I click on the loader and give it admin rights, when I hit update and the progress bar jumps and then it reboots. I was able to update the EC / Keyboard firmware without issue. At this point I’m almost ready to give up. Any thoughts?

Blade 14 (2022) won't power on when power LED blinks green (screen off)

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 the laptop? Wh

hi, i just tried using razer nexus remote play, but no matter what i do the app just doesn’t connect to my PC for some reason. Anyone know what might be the cause? (in the “unpaired computers” there is literally nothing other than the add manually button which asks for your PC’s ip address.)

Razer blade 14 availability in 2025

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

$1,700 for a 32 GB ram upgrade? YOU ARE CRAZY!!!

I was excited about purchasing a new gaming laptop from Razer. I was prepared to spend up to $4k for the computer but when I discovered they decided to go with the soldered on ram so they could rape you on the price, I decided this company isn’t for me. There is zero chance I will ever buy any laptop from this company as long as they try to leverage the fact that you can’t upgrade the ram yourself and charging you 90% of what other high end gaming laptops cost just for a ram upgrade of 32 GB. 32 GB of ram isn’t worth $1,700.00, don’t be a simp and pay that much just so you can have a flashy laptop to show off. Don’t enable this greedy anti-consumer practice. Boycott them until they integrate lpcamm memory that you can upgrade yourself or if they choose to make a 32 GB memory upgrade reasonable like $300 to $400. I am so disappointed because razer used to be the only gaming laptop left that you could upgrade the ram on. I don’t care that every other company is doing it… that is no excus

Razer blade 16 2023 - High power idle

Razer blade 16 - 2023 - RTX 4090 Problem Description: NVIDIA GPU remains in P4 state at ~28W even when no processes are running (nvidia-smi confirms 0 active processes). When processes were running, power draw was only 4W, which is the opposite of expected behavior. Trying to enable persistence mode (nvidia-smi -pm 1) or change power limits (nvidia-smi -pl XX) results in "Not supported on this platform" errors. The GPU does not seem to fully power down when idle. Troubleshooting Steps Taken Offloaded all applications to Intel iGPU Used Windows Graphics Settings and NVIDIA Control Panel to ensure all apps (including dwm.exe) run on the Intel GPU. Verified via nvidia-smi that no active processes were using the NVIDIA GPU. Checked GPU Power State After offloading processes, the GPU unexpectedly stayed in P4 at 28W, rather than dropping to P8/P12 (<5W). Tried Adjusting Power Settings via nvidia-smi (Failed) nvidia-smi -pm 1 → "Persistence mode not supported" nvidia-smi -pl 15 → "Changing p

Laptop (RZ09-0409) Power LED not working

My laptop turns on and functions correctly, but the LED Power light located on the front of the laptop doesn’t seem to function correctly. When I first turn my laptop on, it briefly flashes green (maybe there’s a solid green for a short bit, can’t really tell), but the LED immediately turns off once the OS (windows 11 in this case) begins to boot. When the computer goes into sleep mode, the light flashes the normal white to indicate sleep mode. If the battery falls below 20%, the LED continues to stay off rather than turn red. The LED stays off regardless of whether the power adapter is plugged into the wall or not. I can’t quite figure it out. I’ve re-installed the OS thinking it might be a system/software glitch, even going so far as to unplug the CMOS battery for 2 minutes to let motherboard reset. The light simply doesn’t want to function while the Windows 11 OS is active. Any thoughts?

Undervolting Razer Blade 18 2024

Hi - just wanted to share my experience with undervolting. I bough a new laptop and before had no idea about undervolting/overclocking etc. so I had to do a lot of research and trials to find the good method. I don’t have much knowledge about it, but here are some important things I found out. I tried Throttlestop, MSI afterburner, but in the end just sticked to Intel XTU, without undervolting the graphic card (4080). So first what I needed to take care of: - Disable undervolt protection in BIOS - Disable Windows Virtualization and Hyperwisor (I am using VMWare, and it actually made my VM much faster) - Disable Memory Isolation - Disable windows fast startup (was needed for XTU to start automatically, I didn't notice any significant decrease in startup). - I configured Razer Synapse not to run on startup, but I keep it installed for any setup needed in the future. It should have set overclock on, no turbo power limits, cpu set to turbo, gpu to whatever you want (before I made a mistake

Please help - Razer Core X Chroma not working

I’ve been using a Razer Core X Chroma with a Dell XPS 13 laptop and Radeon RX Vega GPU, and have been enjoying it. I recently shuffled the Core X Chroma around while dealing with some cords, and it stopped being responsive with my computer. I tried switching to a different cable (Razer thunderbolt cable) and still no response. Then I tried with a different laptop (Zenbook 14 UX3405) and still no response. The PSU fan turns on when I connect it to a laptop, but other than that, there’s no power or ethernet or monitor connection happening. I checked with a multimeter and the PSU seems to be working. Has anyone experienced this before?

Razer Blade 18 2023 Wake on Lan

Hello, I've been tearing my hair out for ages over an annoying problem. I would like to use Wake on Lan to boot the laptop remotely. Unfortunately, there are no settings available in the BIOS. Everything is configured correctly in Windows, but it just won't work. The Magic packet definitely arrives, I was able to check this with a network recording. Is this simply not possible or no longer possible with this device? Alternatively, it would be enough for me if I could set the laptop to boot up after the power supply has been plugged in, but the very slimmed-down BIOS is not usable for this either, as there is no such power option. Can you help me? Thank you very much :)

Optimal dual SSD setup for Razer Blade 16?

Hey Everyone, I just bought a Razer Blade 16 and want to upgrade my storage to be dual drive. I was thinking of installing a 2TB Samsung 990 Pro to serve as an OS/Apps drive in one M.2 slot and a 4TB Western Digital BLACK SN850X for all my Game files. Can anyone tell me if this would be a bad idea? Should I go with a matched set of drives instead? Thanks!

Hello, I recently purchased a Razer Blackshark V2 X headset. However, when I tried to register my product, I found that it was already registered. It has been 5 days since I purchased the product and I have previously contacted customer support about this issue but have not received a response yet. I would appreciate it if you could help me as soon as possible. If my product is counterfeit or has any issues, I will contact the store where I purchased it for a refund. Thank you.
