- Razer Blade Pro 17 packs a ton of great hardware in a thin and light gaming laptop. The standout features are the 4K 120 hz display, RTX 2080 Super Max-Q GPU, and the i7-10875 8-core processor all housed in a unibody aluminum construction. But with so many great laptops out there at a cheaper price, is the $3799 spec'd Razer Blade Pro 17 worth buying? Here's my honest review of the Razer Blade Pro 17. Enjoy!

The way that every tech review opens with the same techno-dumbstep sound bit is the worst type of cringe
They do that to test in every aspect the sound quality, that song has it all
@@harounzriba9025 That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
@@CaseyStellar whooosh
Got the 2019 1080p version, quite like it. I generally do cpu medium and high gpu. Im hopeful that this laptop will last me a long time.
How did u do it in razer lap bro
@@Shinji7700 Go to Razer Synapse --> System --> Performance --> Select "Custom" instead of "Balanced".
Note that it does make it slightly louder, so generally myself I tend to use balanced except when gaming.
When I play I max out the fans, you should under volt the laptop to so you get 10°C less , I will probably upgrade to the new razer blade 3000 Nvidia series cards if they performe 40% more.
I got mine for $1500 CDN off because the new ones were about to come in. I increased the ram to 32gb and added a 2tb NVMe. It literally has desktop specs now and its running amazing so far
I’m one of those “pros” where CPU power is a factor. Let me ask you, did you test any video rendering with added effects (color correction, motion graphics, etc) to see how much slower this would be from say the Area 51M that you own? Thanks.
Blake Kosmowski go check jarrod’s tech channel. Laptops come late but the test are intensive with numbers to make comparisons
Any news on your thoughts? I'm looking to pickup a labtop for editing on the go!
@@sethviews I got the new 2020 Razer blade pro 17 with the 2080 super and it’s done everything I need it to. Motion graphics, video, compositing, rendering, etc etc.
Really impressed with it.
bought the 4k version recently, the best feature is absolutely the 120hz screen. Cannot go back to 60 or even 90hz screen after the oppo find 120hz cellphone. battery is bad but expected, overall a great quality machine, worthe the money.
Have you run into any graphic driver issue mate?(not able to update the graphic driver) I am thinking about RMA my unit but if the issue persists I will probably go for a refund.
@@bushliu5922 There's no graphics driver issue per se. Just that you're not able to automatically update your Nvidia drivers from GeForce experience until Razer has specifically created a new version of Nvidia's drivers with the custom modifications needed for the RBP.
Essentially you can try to force-install a non-compatible version straight from Nvidia, but based on experience of others, this tends to break Optimus as well as 120hz functionality on the built-in display.
Does your laptop overheats when playing 4k AAA games?
If you enable integer scaling in the NVIDIA control panel, games will look clearer at 1080p than they would at 1440p.
What about gaming laptop with RTX3000 ? will the RTX3000 Laptop GPU release in the same day of the RTX3000 normal big PC ?
The gap on the speaker grille would drive me crazy personally. This machine needs a bigger battery and better speakers for its 17 inch size.
I think they can max out the battery with 2 fans. You pay for like $3799 for that then the battery should max out.
That may be the most thorough review of the blade pro 2020 out there, and i've seen them all - so thanks for that! How would you compare the 300hz screen with the 4k touch ? Are the brightness and overall quality really different ? I'm a developer/data scientist so I'm wondering if the 4k is not overkill for my use cases. Would a higher resolution on a 17 inches really be better for my eyes ?
Thanks for the thoughtful comment! I haven’t seen the 300 hz display in person yet, but based on color analysis and brightness tests from other reviewers, the 4K 120hz should be noticeably brighter and more colorful in a side by side comparison with the naked eye. The 300 hz display I believe only has 300ish nits brightness and 75% adobe RGB, which isn’t bad, but isn’t the feast for the eyes like it is with this display.
I’m a developer and gamer, and i recommend the 4K 120hz to the 300hz as 4K would really help you in modelling, colour work. But that depends on your role. 300hz would work very well for animation allowing for smooth pre runs and such. Depends on your roles and that can affect how you perceive the screen.
Questions:
Is this the 90w or 80w Max Q variant?
Razer advertised Intel XMP up to 3200Mhz, have you tried it and gotten it to work?
Thanks for the amazing review!
100w razer uses a custom vbios, it performs pretty much the same as the maxp 2070 version, but in the case of the 2080 it performs 10% or so better than a normal 90w version
@@alipacheco5877 Thanks! May I ask how I can verify this information or how can I know what variant my particular laptop has?
Neither......This is the 100W version.....The Razer Blade Pro 17....Both 9th gen 2019.......and 10th gen 2020......when set to the "High GPU Setting"......goes past 90w.....and uses 100W on their 2070 max-q and 2080 max-q gpus.......Many reviews like Jarrods Tech....notebookcheck etc.....will show you this......The Razer blade pro 17's 2070mq (100W) performs on par with a full 2070 max-p (115W).........Their 2080mq is the fastest 2080mq overall.
It runs at 90W most of the time, but I did get the GPU to go up to 100W when I set the GPU performance setting to HIGH, and the CPU performance to LOW. Far Cry 5 had reduced performance with this setting though because it is partially CPU bound. In GPU Bound games, you could get higher performance with this setting I believe.
I wonder if I used Intel XTU to set a permanent power limit if I could get it to run 100W full time? Possibly.
I am an FL Studio based producer, and I got this, and it's great. It's got a beautiful screen, performance is good, and rendering is lightning fast.
I upgraded the RAM, on mine to 32 GB. So that I can open two whole instances of Omnisphere, or three Chrome tabs. Amazing!
@@wilfredynunez5263 flex
This PC can run games in 1080p

Time to upgrade your PC ~
@@KelvinKMS is this a good one to get?
@@nero3948 No RTX3080 for laptop is out already.
1080p should work perfectly fine, the upscalling should be 4 >1
-must be some kind of bad upscalling similar to TVs
I picked this up with the 1080p 300Hz screen, RTX 2070 GPU and couldn't be happier. It's amazing for my productivity work, and comes in handy when I'm done with work and want to game 😁
I want to buy the same, but was not sure about the 2070. How it work in gaming department?
@@Zelkova88 It runs super smooth! I've been playing shooters and think the performance is great.
@KFC Bucket Nope, had it over a month and have had no issues 👍
why is the 120hz 4k screen only available on the 17 inch model and not the 15 inch
im getting the blade 15 and excited to see it come in
@@cryptorellyt i actually decided it wasnt worth the money and got a zephyrus g14. The AMD processor gives it a crazy long battery life for a gaming laptop which was a must because im in college.
Great review! Would it be possible to ask you to include the CIV VI AI turn time benchmark? It is a grew comparative tool to see how computers handle complex, cpu intesive tasks in actual real life gaming scenarios.
@GAMEWITH YOU Z
Love the review! Thank you so much! I wonder though why is it that Razer does not have a configuration option for the i9-10980HK CPU? The Gigabyte Aero 17 comes in a similarly-sized chassis, and does have that option. It can't be a thermal concern because Razer's vapor chamber does a great job. It can't be a cost concern either because it'll be an option, not a default configuration.
Probably just that they didn't see the need to offer extra option as there's not that much of an actual benefit to having it.
Unlike most other manufacturers, Razer is quite small in laptop business which is why they can't afford to have really big level of configurability, they are saving significantly by only having a few different more popular SKUs in store at any given time so having all new 2020 RBP models (and 2020 RB-Advanced) with same CPU will save significantly on overall costs.
@@Fisustin Yeah that makes sense. Since posting my question here, I got nearly the same answer elsewhere as the one you just provided. I don't foresee this changing in 2021, not with yet another 14nm CPU (Rocket Lake-H). However, if the leaks are accurate, and if Intel switches directly to 7nm from 14nm in 2022 with Meteor Lake-H, maybe Razer will see tangible performance benefits from offering the i9 as an option then.
I just want to see a Razer with Ryzen 9 5000 series and RTX 3080Ti
4K 120Hz means that maximum FPS limit on any game would be 120 FPS correct or ?
yep
Not worth it for shooters!
No it's doesn't mean that the max FPS will be 120. The max FPS will be whatever the GPU can manage, the display will only be able to show 120 however which is where you'll get screen tearing.
Jumping from RTX 2080 to the RTX 3080 on the RBP new model will be how much % increase in FPS estimated?
with the Alienware does it have backlight bleed on the edges ?
is there a lot of diferences between RTX 2080, RTX 2080 SUPER, RTX 2080 SUPER MAX-Q?
How much it cost on black Friday or next year? Also I think it is touchable screen
For a laptop that cost that much and doesn’t have auto brightness really sucks, have you tried updating the graphics cards drivers from nvidia website as I can’t seem to, Or did I buy a faulty one?
www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/h0z7m3/cant_install_latest_nvidia_drviers_44614_on_2080/
Great review! I am eyeing the same top of the line model, personally I have been a Mac retina user for almost a decade so I am having trouble looking at a 1080p screen again.. apart from the screen, I am interested in buying this for day trading. Do you think the CPU is good enough?
The CPU (especially with the cooling setup) is likely slightly overkill for most use outside of heavy computation, video rendering in a hurry or trying to squeeze every single FPS from gaming.
I personally switched from my MBP 15 to the Razer 17 around two weeks ago. If you have the money definitely aim for the 4k screen, the 1080p screen on a 17 inch screen makes icons incredibly fuzzy. Also with a 1080p you wont have a glass slab in front of the screen which makes it look slightly dated. The CPU is definitely ample enough for 99% of the tasks normal people do.
Was able to find one at Best Buy. Thing is insane 🥰
@KFC Bucket none
@@cryptorellyt its a high performance laptop, of course its going to get hot depending on how you adjust the performance settings in Synapse. Other than that no real issues- works like a dream.
@@cryptorellyt was it a recent vid? I've heard about issues with older razer laptops but no issues here.
@@cryptorellyt now I have heard their customer support does kinda suck. Just don't buy from them directly. I have an extended warranty with Best Buy.
Also, this is only this man's experience; tech sometimes bugs out but that's a small percentage. Again I haven't had issues with mine. Good luck to you
Im on the fence here, razer or alienware? From your other video, alienware can do more compared to razer but the only gripe I have with alienware is the nits. I want more accurate rgb but there's a lot more complains I heard about razer.
I been doing "research" on the two myself as I am thinking about buying one or the other. So far it comes down to a Ninja vs a Samurai. The Blade Pro being the Ninja and the M17 being the Samurai.
One is efficient, runs cool and quiet while getting the job done as well as offering tons of features (Razer).
The other is powerful and uncapped, but runs a great deal hotter and as a result louder. (Alienware)
The fact of the matter is the M17 isn't that much higher than the Pro 17 in benchmarks (fps). If you are going to spend $3k on a laptop make sure its something quality like the Razer.
On the other hand if you are going to spend around $1700-$2100 get the Alienware as you will want to have as much power as possible being so far down the rung. Even tho the Blade 15 at $1800 looks pretty good as well.... sigh such a hard decision.
Anyways thats my two cents hope it helped (sarcasm).
On the same model and same assessment tool, I hit 98% / 99% 990:1 so I wonder if the panel they sent you was up to snuff? I also ordered the late 2020 model so perhaps that's the difference?
I bought this laptop last year and it was worth every penny, I first bought the 4K OLED version but returned it at Best buys for the 4K 17.3 inch version. What's nice is that you can change the resolution and the image size in the Windows settings so everything fits the screen perfectly. Also you can adjust graphical settings in the Nvidia graphics control panel.
Was the oled the 15 inch version or a 17 inch version?
Has your battery swollen yet. If not better start researching.
I am a Razer fan but the price is a bit too rich for my wallet. Thanks for the review.
Point per dollar is wrong, you are not comparing with other laptops with 10th Gen intel i7 and 17 inches.. The smaller it is, the more expensive it gets. You have to compare it with same size and same gen and capacity. This laptop have a better position in terms of points per dollar.
I though you were living on a RV! Good job!
Now it's just around $2000 in my country, seems a good deal
Same is it better to get this or pay more for the newest one? The newest one is at least 1K more
I want a laptop with a 120hz refresh rate thats not considered a gaming laptop. I want a long hour battery life too. Any suggestions? (1080p plus)
Got mine last week, it is truly a well-built powerhouse. Got a small issue though. I couldn't update my Nvidia driver so it is running on the out-of-factory driver 442.53. I am wondering whether there is a solution to this problem. Is it just my unit or it is a common issue?
Mine has the same, i was able to force an update to the Nvidia driver, however if you do force the update and if you select graphics hardware it will only output a picture via hdmi or usb-c type 3 ports. If you switch it to Optimus it’ll display again on the laptop screen but you lose the ability for 120hz (this is for the 451.48 update). I didn’t want to lose 120hz option so had to restore the drivers back to 442.53 which sucks as doom eternal will only let you run the game when it knows there’s an updated Nvidia driver out
To everyone who has the RBP: Please don't force install a wrong version of the driver, and wait for Razer to release a Blade Pro compatible version, at that point you will be able to automatically update the driver from Geforce experience, without needing to force install it.
@@Fisustin got flickering issue on Optimus
This video made me pull the trigger on this laptop in March 2021. $2400 used on Amazon! Killer deal.
How is it ?
I like the razer blade screen covered by glass and it looks premium than the other gaming laptop with frame.
Only at 4K Screen, and this glare us shitty if youre playing ganzes
Totally agree, that's a huge plus
So you need to pay 4,000 dollars to get the same thing as a 400 dollar console?
Thank you for the review, do you think that you could get the razer 17 invch with rtx 3080 and 360 hz, that would be awesome :D
Wish I can get this one day
Should I get the 4K 120hz one or the 1080p 300hz one
4k 120hz would be perfect combo for work, movies and games.
4k of course. Can’t see why you’d need more than 120Hz unless you do eSport for a living. But who’s doing eSport on a laptop anyway.
Seems like a better laptop than the XPS 17 even though the specs are similar. No wobbly loose trackpad!
I returned my XPS for this very reason and will be replacing with this one.
What is the name of the game at 2:10 min
About to buy this laptop. Your review probably pushed me over the edge. Its a full green light. Thanks!
Check out the Auros 17g
Before you buy mate, there is an ongoing graphic driver issue, search Razer Blade pro cannot update graphic driver, you will find out
There's no graphics driver issue, however you will need to wait for there to be a version that Razer publishes with the custom modifications they've done to run it on RBP with the Optimus and 120Hz display.
This does mean that instead of update every few days, you might get just two or three updates per year, but generally you shouldn't be expecting any significant performance penalty or issues because of this.
Edit 25/09/20: the graphics drivers are updating like normal and have been for a month or so since they released the latest bios patch.
The dispaly is a real Gem. Outstanding.
Does the secondary (non-TB3) usb-c port support display-port and power delivery functionality, or is it simply used for data share?
Yes, it supports both :)
Though the power delivery is rather minor as you're only going to be charging this laptop for about 100w if using USB-C anyway, which is less than what it needs at full power.
I believe it is 65W charging not 100W after 2021 model and above
Wow... that's a glossy display...
another episode of i cant afford what im seeing
somethings called "saving up"
Is the advanced model suitable for software developers and deep learning processes? Or is it th base one? These aspects are always by reviwers.
Nice! Thinking about this laptop - the idea of OLED 4K at 120hz is very tempting.
What is that game a little over 2 minutes in?
It's not OLED, to get a display with OLED you need to get the 4k, 60hz touch screen version of 15" Razer Blade.
The screen on this one is just a very high quality, HDR capable (for movies etc.) IPS-like panel with amazing colours and high contrast.
What game is he playing
It's just for open word
I traded my 2019 hp omen with 1650 an i7 9th gen 60htz display for a 2018 razer with 2080 max q an i7 8th gen 144htz display did I get the better deal?
does razer 17 4K have two different keyboard layout? the one in the video has small up and down arrow and a large shift key, some other youtuber video the arrow is normal size and shift key isnt large. Even the official site photo shows two different layout, how do we know which one we are getting when ordered?? anyone confirm?
Yes the 2080 non super had the big arrows but a terrible shift and ? Placement. The super variants updated the arrows and it's small now.
I bought the laptop through amazon , but the undervolt option is locked , how did you undervolt yours?
Is this one better, or is the 300Hz full HD one better? The 300Hz full HD one also costs $600 less.
I like how you compare 2080 super max Q to GTX 1660s and 1070s.... that like comparing a brand new high performance car to an older 4 cylinder Honda #biased
I have a question, i have the exact same model as this video, but my pc could barely hit 15 fps on witcher 3 4k. And it was always like that that caused me to think i bought a really s**tty laptop. Then i saw this review and wondered. Is there a settings you have to do to accomplish this?
Edit: It is not just witcher 3 either. Its basically i game that i have. I have to aplay almost all of them at 1440p
its been a few months but if you can respond on the blade pro 17 can you switch from 4k 120 to uhd 300hz?
No
120hz is max but you can switch resolution
4k, 120hz and 1080p, 300hz were the two display options and you need to choose at the time of buying.
How would you rate this laptop in todays gaming thinking of buying one used
Its still capable of playing many games well on low-medium settings, some games high setttings
bought it for 1100, when plugged in its a desktop power house, i can get 100 plus frames at 1440p which is good enough for me
Razer blade pro 17 2080rtx super, can i upgrade the ram to 64gb 3200mhz? like hyperx impact or crucial ballistix 64gb rams?
Is the 1080p 300hz version looks blurry on 17 inch screen?
That's THE question that makes me hesitating. No reviewers address it directly.
I have the 300hz screen and it’s not blurry at all and I do like the screen more than the 144hz gigabyte aero 17 screen I had before. I’d say the 1080p 300hz is definitely worth it.
I have 300hz and it looks holy shit good no blurring I’ve noticed
It’s not going to be blurry, but it might seem “not as crisp” after you get used to the higher DPI on a 4K display. Returning to the 1080p display on my Alienware definitely felt that way.
GizmoSlipTech i see, thanks for helping
❤️👍really helpful review
I was deciding between the Razer Blade 17 Pro and the Razer Blade 15 both have the same graphics card and processor, the only difference is the Razer 17 Pro has 4K display with 120Hz while the Razer 15 has 1080p with 300Hz display, I was lucky enough to be able to try both of them playing the most high spect games to date and I ended up returning the Razer Blade 17 Pro as an exchange for the Razer Blade 15.
I do want to throw it out there that the Razer 17 Pro will lag at times and overheat due to power inefficiency, the laptop has problems being able to power the 4K display while running 2020 Triple AAA games like DOOM eternal, don't expect the Razer Blade 17 Pro to be able to run Cyberpunk 2077 getting 60FPS at 4K - ultra graphic settings you may end up getting around 50FPS if you're lucky.
The higher color gamut display on the Razer Blade Pro 4K 120hz is a huge improvement. I typically don't game at full 4k resolution on mine. I usually run it at 1440P and can't notice the resolution difference in games since the display is only 17". But this way I still get the full color gamut increase.
More threads can benefit Games but in special clock speed, in which intel is the king!.
should i get the 51m r2 with 2070 super or should i get the razer with the 2080 super max q
Looks sick, (meanwhile crying in 1660Ti with 60hz monitor)
I have a shit laptop be greatful
The Gpu is ok though
All the Color!! yess!!👌✨
For over a week the maxed out Razer Blade 17 Pro with RTX 2080 and 4K Touch Screen has not been available. Also on Amazon. I contacted Razer support and the lady I spoke with said it’s now a legacy model. I wonder if they’ll refresh it or if it will no longer be available?
Good point! Hard to say honestly. When suppliers start running out of stock for extended periods, it makes you wonder when new laptop models will be released.
Maybe then it’sa blessing in disguise and I’ll end up being able to purchase an updated refreshed model
You are waiting for the the RTX 2080 for months now and I’m waiting for the newly released RTX 3080.... omg this will be a long wait!!!
@@AngSingha Eventually they came back in stock and I bought the 2080 Super Max-Q. The mobile 3080 won't be as powerful as the desktop 3080 anyways.
My Razer Synapse is missing GPU Mode under the performance tab... So the refresh rate is stuck at 60hz... HELP! Any suggestions? I've reinstalled the software several times, triple checked all my drivers are up to date. I don't see any reason this should be happening...
I know I'm probably way too late to answer so this is for everyone else who has the same problem who end up getting lost here:
You need to disable "Nvidia Optimus" below and turn "Dedicated GPU Only" on first. Then you can select 120Hz for the internal screen.
Is the glossy screening annoying? It looks very reflective.
It would be a bigger issue if the display wasn’t 400+ nits brightness
I'm reading online that a lot of people are getting lemons. Every time I see a reviewer, they talk about how amazing it is and it makes me really want one, however when I go to places like Reddit or even some of the websites where they sell the laptop, you read the reviews and it's hundreds of people have gotten lemons. For example, some people are getting dead pixels, some people, the laptop is not running even close to what it should be. Also people are saying overheating is a major problem. What do you guys think? Worth a try?
Need more people with the good ones to write reviews or comment! Unfortunately only the ones with lemon felt the need to comment, understandably so!

Thanks for your sincere opinion and take this opportunity to ask you to review the Asus Zephyrus S15. I´m interested between these 2 laptops and your opinion would be of great help.
It may sound crazy to compare a 15-inch with a 17-inch machine, but I don't like the S17 and I´m interested in 300hz screens.
Worth getting this now??
I game stream using Shadow and Geforce Now on a LG Gram 17 at 1440p. A wallet friendly alternative
to this beast, if not quite as jaw droppingly cool.
I’m waiting for a max spec Alienware m15 r3 (OLED) review 😩😩😩
Naw for almost 4k bucks I want a desktop.
Im someone who travels a lot and also has to go to school and sports. You think I should get a desktop or a laptop? This one is really nice and I already have an idea for a good desktop
Would love to know about the pd charging.
Can I hook up a vive pro vr head set to this 🤔
Just asking but does the BSOD still happen at the time i am posting
I'd like to know anti glare vs non anti glare thoughts because I personally really like anti glare and I'm not sure if I'm personally willing to go back to glare although I know OLED is better.
Great Razer, now make a 15 inch version with AMD+1440p 120hz screen+ a GPU that has 50 watts tdp max+ 99 watts battery. I care a lot about battery life in you know a "laptop!"Also, no need for a touch screen if it is going to be that reflective.
Can you do the same on Razer 15 advanced 2080 super max q?
Do these high end laptops really go to shit after about a year? Anybody have personal experience with these laptops?
Have a razer stealth 2016. Love it honestly. Looks better than the newer laptops, but yeah quality is an issue. My screen came with dead pixels at the bottom. And now I’m seeing some battery bloat. Not sure if it’s just Razer but honestly you’d do well to have insurance
@Elmer: Had several high-end laptops, though this one is actually the first one by Razer that I've had.
They've usually had no problems (once with a Clevo had a minor issue with keyboard backlight that managed to fix in software), and after a year or a few when the warranty is over you can usually squeeze still a bit more power out by overclocking, as their thermal systems tend to be designed with a lot of margin.
Really glad I saw this.. the power limits kill it for me... Can't get anywhere near the 4.3ghz all core turbo of that chip. So different to something like Alienware.. My M17 R3 with just performance fan mode (not annoying at all unlike full speed mode), stays in the high 70's with 100% load on all 8 cores at 4.1ghz.. it can do the default 4.4, just, without throttle. I am still so bummed this laptop GFX card has died and dell don't have a part replacement so they are refunding the thing 6 months after I bought it, and I keep looking for replacements and just aren't satisfied with anything yet.
does this laptop have Nvidia G-sync?
Is this lcd or oled?
There's no OLED 17 inch screens on any laptop yet.
BDO doesn't have interface scaling? Yikes
Is this a LCD Or Oled screen doesn anyone know please :(!?
but how many GB does it have ?? on the website they say it has just 500GB..
You can get the 500gb version or the 1TB version
To add to previous, it also has one more open NVMe slot, so feel free to add a 2-4TB SSD if you need more space than the 512 GB / 1TB you buy it with:)
What about gbu watt?
Great review, just bought one actually, but I have a request, remove the "Honest" from your video title - it's just an unnecessary word to have in a review title, because it suggests that your other reviews aren't honest? Even if a review product is sent to a TH-camr, it absolutely doesn't mean that the review is dishonest nor non-genuine. Putting the word "honest" doesn't in the title doesn't change anything, other than to undermine your content.
Yeah, I've been contemplating removing it. I do not mean to imply other honest reviewers are dishonest (most are honest imo). Unfortunately not all reviewers are honest, there are plenty of dishonest reviewers out there that are associated with the brand and do not disclose the relationship, which is the reason I add it.
@@GizmoSlipTech I do agree, but maintain your own standards and remove it, honestly the viewers can easily tell if someone is on the payroll, they're far more desperate and fail to discuss any negatives. I have to say, Razer's biggest problem in Europe is their customer services right now, I messaged weeks ago with questions and still no response, specifically the issue that their website doesn't give UK keyboard options unless you're in the UK (I live in Sweden). Almost went with the XPS 17 instead but couldn't resist the RTX2080 and so ordered the machine on Amazon.
Just to add however, what a shame that for this price, the Razer doesn't pack in an i9 as well!!
I suggest to remove it to. It's not needed
how does a $3799 laptop in 2020 not come with an i9-10980HK?! MSI GS66 wrecks this for cheaper.... Same GPU but with i9-10980HK, 300hz display, and 99.9wHR battery life. When the 2020 GS75 17" comes out, it'll destroy this laptop even more, for cheaper.
The difference in speed between these two processors is minor, especially as it comes in the end more about the capabilities of the cooling system to sustain the temporary boost before thermal throttling sets in.
So it's not really visible how it would "wreck" this laptop that actually feeds way more power than most max-Q GPUs get, so Razer will likely (pending actual benchmarks) win by a significant margin in GPU performance while looking and feeling very significantly more premium with the single piece aluminum frame.
It's a slightly different market segment :)
Great review bro...pls make GTA 5 benchmarks on it..pls...keep up the good work👍👍
is it oled
There no 17 inch OLED laptops 😒
WOW I get 4487 for CB R20. Wow. Same cpu genre, only 100mhz faster on the factory all core turbo (10980HK) (-0.5 undervolt and fans 100% to get that score, cores sustain 4.4ghz during cinebench). This razer is being severely limited. Darn. If it gets to 88c as it is at 3.5ghz, the vapor chamber obviously can't deal with a higher power limit.. That would be the real reason they have it so low.
Why's there no dedicated numberpad on it? 😢
Are you an accountant?????
Just keep it in 4k and upsize the display percentage
mine stop working after 2 weeks
$3800.00 for an i7 with only 16gb ram? Maybe if it had an i9, and 32gb ram.
razer tax, 120hz 4k, and 2080
That cpu temp was cookin
NICE REVIEW *didnt watch*
