I got a used Razer Blade 16 2024 with Core i9 14900HX and RTX 4080.

I updated the BIOS from 1.04 to 1.08 (latest) before doing any test.

 

The GPU is only using up to 80W.

I tried setting to turbo and also setting custom with CPU set to Boost, GPU to high and Max fan speed, but it still only using up to 80W on the GPU


It is using the original 330w power adapter.


GPU-Z says PerfCap Reason: Pwr

GPU load running OCCT Adaptive Extreme stress test temp is Core: 78.94c, hotspot, 85.31c, memory junction, 80c with room ambient temp at high 80f


I get very poor result in 3DMark Timespy only getting 13545 when the average is 18655.


GPU-Z advanced tab NVIDIA BIOS says about power limit

minimum: 5W, default, 80w, maximum: 175w


MSI afterburner power limit slider is greyed out

Please help

nvm.

I used DDU to clean NVIDIA drivers and after that it is now using the full 175w of the GPU.
