Apparently a great 4K panel will be put in the new studio addition : "The new Blade Pro 17 Studio Edition, meanwhile, sets the bar a little higher with a speedy 4K 120Hz display panel."

So why not offer this panel for the RTX 2080 RBP 17???

Because this panel doesn’t exist yet and RBP studio will also come later sometime in the fall. Plus 4K 120Hz, it’s nice though but for gaming 2080maxq would struggle handling nowadays triple A titles on that resolution with maximizing screen refresh rate and by hearing 4K 120Hz I smell already $ lol, like hearing a work station laptop.

Some of us aren't as concerned about the money. Sure, I don't want to overpay if I don't have to, but i'd rather have what I want and pay for it.

For now i'm settling for my LG gram 17. It's not quite 4k at 2560x1600 but it's WAY better than FHD. Yeah, it's only got integrated graphics but it's light as heck, inconceivable battery life, thin bezel, and has the display i need for my work. Hopefully Razer can give me a model some day that will fit my needs AND my wants.
RBP 17 2080 just shipped from HK via Fedex, supposed to be here Thurs. Going to try some undervolting/benchmarking and see what it's capable of. Upgrading to 32GB RAM and adding a 1TB SSD to the spare slot once it gets here.

Damn 1tb ssd, hope you picked it up recently cause the prices are super low at the moment
It's out. Blade pro. I got a call today from my local razer store here in San Francisco... like 10 hours ago. To pick up my reserved unit. However... I'm having a change of heart. Why? My blade 15 2080mq got ram failure bsod. Wtf. I just got it less than 3 months. The bsod says "page fault, in nonpaged area". I googled this and they say it's a ram failure. Fml. I just spoke to razer support for repair.. got this blade 2080mq on feb 5th guys...tsk tsk tsk.
Actually i got two bsod today. The first one was the usual nvidia driver crashing.

Did you manage to solve it? If not which windows version is it? Heard on nvidia forum recently new driver push dch drivers on 1903. I saw a lot bsod issues with rtx laptops not only Razer the culprit is between Nvidia, Intel or microsoft. Users from each brands search their own solution, but mostly bsod is caused by drivers incompatible with some hardware. I don’t have bsod issues recently because I don’t update anything lol, stay not to update as long I don’t have issues.

I see, did you try various nvidia drivers, or put back the original ram see if bsod still happens? Can you link me the Reddit link btw, it’ll help me seeing why on battery this happens, my guess is on your new ram, not quite sure though.

Yeah this really isn't contributing to me deciding Razer as my next laptop, hope they fix it asap!
Ram is same. I havent upgraded yet. Was thinking about it. I had good experience with razer support with my blade 4k 7820hk gtx 1080. That's what prompted me to buy the blade 15 rtx2080mq.

But i felt burnt. Razer San Francisco store manager told me razer got rid of pro razer blade (he didnt say razer did this, but said razer is abandoning 17 18 inchers).

Now that i got so many bsod from laptop i got on feb 5th 2019. im thinking of leaving razer.

As usual im jumping between topics since im losing my trail of thoughts.
Oh i got into razer laptop due to andrey lebrov.

His tattoos always temp me to do my first lol, that’s all.
This laptop seems awesome but I need it in Mercury White. I'm looking for a super compact 17" and am a professional user in an office setting. I am not a creator, so Razer Blade Studio 17 may be overkill. I want premium specs for business applications, web surfing and watching videos. Please release a mercury white version of Razer Blade Pro 17 and I will buy it.

Have you considered buying a white skin?
No, I had not considered buying a skin. Thank you for the suggestion! I will look into this option.
Just ordered mine, wish me luck . . . @ v@
Joikansai, you repasted your blade pro 4k right? Could you teach me how to open the blade pro 4k (7820hk gtx 1080). I googled the topic and saw your post on notebookcheck. My blade pro is hitting 100c again on performance mode. I just bought mx4 grease.

how many screw count? which ribbon cable to pull? much appreciated.
My blade rtx 2080mq is also so hot omg. I couldn't touch it the other day. both left and right side of the vaporchamber is too hot to touch. my next razer blade will come from hidevo and ill opt for all the best grease and thermal pad.

Don’t touch something hot:big_grin_:, just check the temperature inside. The cassis sometimes may be hot because it transfers the heat as well which means doing his job well. Just don’t run Far Cry on gaming mode, not quite sure on 2019 model but on 2018 it may melt the cpu, it’s typically Ubisoft latest titles, not only game but I use it for stress test as well lol.
I replied on that guide last week. Bad angle no screw count, terrible music. Not mentioning which ribbon cable to disconnect.
