Hello everyone,,
I have been taking some thermal measurements for my new Razer Blade 15 and am curious what other owners have been experiencing. Basically, I'm looking to see whether what I'm seeing with my Blade is normal or if it's running unusually hot.
All temperatures are in Celsius. All tests were run with the laptop elevated so as to ensure a clear airflow. snaptube.cam/

Undervolting seems to make almost no difference when running stress tests and when the CPU is idle. I am seeing about a 4 degree drop in temperatures when gaming.
These numbers seem a bit hot to me. I've been considering opening up the laptop and repasting (if needed), but do not want to void my warranty yet (just in case).
For those of you with hardware experience, are these numbers good, okay, or bad?

Average temperature are fine and keep your Undervolting value. Your game is apparently cpu demanding so it may spike to 100 if you let it boost to highest frequency, are you using balanced or costum/high performance Synapse profil? Avoid high performance/gaming mode on such titles since it’ll use higher cpu tdp usually if you prefer cooler system, on any thin light categories cpu usually runs pretty hot on its max performance due minimal cooling room. Other thing to notice is that it’ll be better running manual fans profil on higher rpm while gaming, it may be loud but it keeps better cooling.
Repasting may help and opening Blade and upgrading parts inside won’t avoid the guarantee if the parts or the work doesn’t defect the system, I’m talking about repasting with similar thermal compound not liquid metal, since I’m not quite sure if it’ll bring corrosion to the heat sink and defect the cooling system.
