Ordered mine from HIDEvolution with new thermal pads and paste. Hopefully it was worth the extra money.

Can you give us some thermal results with 3DMark or in game ?

Yep, it's expected to arrive this week. It's currently in "production" which means someone is upgrading it. I have two stages left. If not this week it'll likely be early next week.

The official store only has the Razer Blade 2016 Model and the Razer Stealth Early 2016 Model displayed, you can ask to be notified if they restock. It sucks, but you can try a third party-supplier
I will purchase one just to watch GOT on it. Kidding:D
The Razer team really put a hard work on this, it looks very clean, slim and powerfull.

Thumbs up!

Don't hold your breath on expecting it to arrive this week - I just confirmed with Razer support that the OLED version has not been released yet, so how HIDEvolution is configuring your order is beyond me. Don't get me wrong, I hope they are configuring because that is good news all the way around, but from what I heard - I would follow up with them and confirm.

I'm lucky that the San Francisco Razer store is reasonably close, and the last few times I bought a Razer, I did it at the physical store.

Order Support (5/8/2019, 9:58:57 AM): Upon checking here, I can see that the release would be this month. However, there is no specific date. I advised you to please keep checking the webstore from time to time as we will update the webstore once we have it in stock.
Me (5/8/2019, 9:59:26 AM): Ah, okay - so it has not been released yet?
Order Support (5/8/2019, 9:59:35 AM): Yes.
Me (5/8/2019, 9:59:59 AM): Okay, thank you

Try ask notebook.de I saw some Blade 15 2018 users got us qwerty from them, from Razer Store you can only get german qwertz, but even if you can it would be probably later, resellers order always later compared to first batch order from Razer Store.

Some resellers should have ETA from manufacturer earlier than consumers, that is why leaks about hardware specifications usually comes. I just asked Chat Support, this’s for us some other regions, big one like UK, France, Germany, China etc usually later on System first batch order but it would be great if it would be the same time.
Just received my Razer 9th Gen with my cooling mods, here's my Time Spy temps

Let me know if you need any other results

I actually received it this morning.

@Joikansai thanks I contacted them let's see what they will say.

@Vahdyx congrats mate I wish you to enjoy it and to be defectless . By the way did you get the OLED one or the 240 Hz refresh screen?
Im waiting for blade pro. I tot my blade 15 is too small. I hope it wont be as heavy as my old blade pro 4k.

I opted for the 240 Hz. I'm still scared of OLED. I worry about burn in so for me it's a wait and see type of thing. If people have no issues then I'll get one next upgrade which will be in 2-4 years assuming it lasts that long.
When can we expect a release in germany/eu? I badly want that Blade 15 Advanced. :big_grin_:
Do we have any indication as to when the OLED model will be available?

What are the undervolt cpu limits?

Firstly a strong disclaimer: If you are not a hardware guru, don't attempt this. Just don't. Wait for Razer.

Secondly, ensure all antivirus/antimalware software is totally uninstalled before proceeding. It's not worth the risk of it interfering and you toasting your precious laptops.

I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH IF YOU ARE UNSURE DO NOT PROCEED.

Warning out of the way, I stupidly made the mistake of installing the Management Engine firmware, then the EC firmware then the BIOS naturally wouldn't update. Damn. I've been working with BIOS/EFI for a long, long time so I'm very familiar with AMIBIOS which Razer Blade 15 2019 model uses. Easy fix here. The utility Razer bundle isn't able to prod the firmware to update it, but, rather handily they include the tool you need and it works. Yay Razer!

What to do?

Ensure you've got a program like 7zip installed. Download the latest bios update applicable for your razer laptop. Right click on it, extract to a folder.

Open up a cmd window as an administrator. Navigate to that folder.


To elaborate what is doing what:

/B = boot block
/P = main bios
/N = NVRAM
/K = all non-critical blocks

Let it run and do its thing. It doesn't take long. Review what's occured in the console session and check everything was successful.

If all looks good, give it a reboot.

DO NOT FREAK OUT. It will upon the first reboot sit idle/dormant for a little while and that is normal. You have not bricked it. Give it plenty of time and once it returns to life, before it goes to boot the OS, press delete, go into the bios, reset to factory defaults and adjust any settings to how you like. save and quit. I suggest turning on memory XMP as it provides a nice little performance bump.

Congrats, 1.04 bios is yours.

If Razer thinks this information is too dangerous for average users - please remove. I will understand. The skilled users will find this super helpful and it'll get them to 1.04 happily.

Edit: PS. I forgot to say - it silenced the laptop neatly after the 1.04 update. Woot! :)


The command afuwinx64.exe Charlotte2_0104.bin /B /P /N /K doesnt work... My bios file is named RazerUpdater, do I need to change this or something?
