good laptop

For those who got burnt buying blade 15 rtx 2080, i just spoke to razer support. You could still refund your blade even 2 months after purchasing your blade 15. Imma refund mine and get the 9750h one due in few weeks.

Tagging joikansai.

I really need this :big_grin_:

Nice. If only my work allows me to get my own laptop

Joikansai are you getting this? Im saddened by the cpu. Why not 9980hk? That's why i think im going with asus rog. 9980hk and rtx 2080 max p instead of 9750h and 2080mq with rbp.

I’m tempted with this and always want to try but idk man i don’t like upgrading every year lol:smile_:
For this 2,7kg thin light categories 8 cores cpu probably only wasting the money since it’ll throttle like most i9 processor, it’s still same 14nm chips with higher clock. Last gen 8750H performs similar or better than i9 on thin light categories, it’ll be better going with big laptop with desktop cpu with better performance and temperature if you’re looking at i9. And about 2080maxq, since price range is almost around same with Blade 15 highest option with 2080maxq I think it’s also due thermal reason pushing full 2080 only brings another thermal problem and end up like Area 51m, burned out or dead mobo, even they probably sold already a lot but over 10 units within not 2 months without clear reason is a problem imo.

A great new refresh with good upgrades.
Just missing a 4k screen.

In general this looks great, but why was DisplayPort dropped compared to the 15? HDMI 2.0b is great and all, but there's no variable refresh rate output at all on the new Pro, which from a gaming perspective seems like a serious oversight. It seems like every Pro released so far has some "almost there" hang-up that has me saying "maybe next refresh". At least the 15 is literally as good as it gets right now, hopefully they can get the next Pro, or heaven forbid release of Project Valerie, to come as close to perfection as the 15 Advanced.

PCworld mentioned that TB3 on Blade Pro 2019 connected directly to dgpu unlike blade 15 which is to iGPU (cpu) and TB3/usb c basically display port so theoretically it can run g sync, let’s see the real laptop review.

one of these days i'll save up for one xD

With a screen size so big, it really needs a higher resolution screen. The tech exists to go 1440P 144Hz, so if that could be integrated, you would have my attention. Until then, well...

Atm panel manufacturers arent making 1440P panels with narrow bezels and all laptop brands are basically buying the same panels as all the other brands from the same 4 panel manufacturers. Yeah I hope there’s 1440p 144Hz or even 4K 144Hz, lets blame AUO, BOE, LG etc for being too Lazy making things:smile_:
