While Razer hasn't made any official statements or comments about the use of AMD in future Blades (that part of the video was us just dreaming in technicolor!), if they EVER did think about making a move, what would be your perfect config??
With respect to Intel, 10nm was SUPPOSED to have replaced 14nm literally YEARS ago, bringing with it a meaningful all around performance improvement - but, because they completely fucked up 10nm beyond recovery from the very beginning with these unrealistic benchmarks(remember the old wives tale about "Intel's 10nm is actually equivalent to TSMC's 7nm"? Well, that was the goal their intention anyway... ...if only it was that easy), they've been left with literally nothing but 14nm to produce high performance products on. I'm certainly not saying that Intel hasn't been milking consumers - they knew damn well that they SHOULD'VE been pushing core counts as their manufacturing technology allowed - but 14nm products in 2020 and later absolutely were never apart of Intel's original road maps, it was supposed to have been superceded by then. But, because 10nm couldn't be recovered(very efficient chips, very decent IPC increase, they MAY get yields to commercially viable levels at least for some products - but they can't even get close to their target clock speeds which, along with yields, have killed 10nm as a full product line replacement), the only choice that they've had is to continue pumping out 14nm products until the 7nm node development could be accelerated enough to bring it to market to replace 14nm with, which is supposed to be next year. Intel has even said that they only expect performance parity with 7nm, with 5nm projected to recover market leadership.
@@bigturn1051 Rayzen mobile 4000 is over 50% faster than 3000! Check Hardware Unboxed benchmarks! They perform better than intel at lower prices, heat and battery consumption.
@@houssamalucad753 im talking about desktop processors and not mobile ones. The 50% increase is over a ryzen 7 and not a ryzen 9 so really you are exxagerating. Very impressive for a laptop cpu but by no means is intel a ripoff.
To be honest they made a big improvement in 8th gen, because they updated i5 and i7u to 4 cores, but i cant wait to see more laptops using the new processors from AMD, they seems to be great.
That's what I said too. Bought a late 2019 rbs and used it for the last two weeks. Never realized I used it enough to be very annoying. Will prob be returning this week
But you know what I do use hundreds or thousands of times per day... arrow keys. I will never buy a laptop without proper arrow keys and a home/end/page column too. Probably going to get the MSI GE66 when it come out this year. Also has ports on the back!! Amazing in this era of crappy Mac clone laptop design.
AMD releases one good mobile CPU and suddenly all these laptop manufacturers were supposed to know to put it in their laptops 2 years ago? I just think it's unfair to blame the manufacturers that did go with Intel this time around because, guess what, Intel has had a better track record in mobile CPUs than AMD in the past. If AMD keeps this up, and there's manufacturers in like 2022 that are still not including AMD, then we can start pointing fingers. I'd rather have a good product with a good CPU than a half-baked product with a great CPU.
@@buttistedsuidice3296 idk about that. They should have seen the performance of Ryzen 3rd Gen on desktop as a sign that AMD was not messing around this time and I'm sure AMD told them what performance they could expect from the 4000 series. Even from the spec sheet alone, it should have been fairly obvious that Intel was just going to provide a slightly updated 14nm+++ processor with more cores without the added efficiency to compensate for it while AMD was going full on 7nm with lower TDP and higher IPC performance. I don't expect them to completely replace their lineup with AMD, but it seems pretty stupid to not have given at least one model with an AMD/RTX 2080 option. Or in Razor's case, not offering the option at all.
I wouldnt recommend a razer blade. Got the stealth 2019 version with a mx150 graphics card full hd and the speakers crackling, the screen freezes on netflix for some seconds and finally after 4 months the laptop works slower and slower with no reason (rarely use and low load). Paid around 1200€ for the garbage and at the end its just nice looking

Razer reliability is trash. People confuse premium chassis build for premium hardware. If Razer wants to charge big boy Mac prices they need to provide Mac levels of service at least which they dont
I had a 2017 Blade 14 with the GTX 1060 for two years - the CPU thermal paste was bad out of the box but after I redid it with Kryonaut I had zero problems with it.

Not saying that people haven't had major issues, but remember people are more likely to publicly complain than praise things.
Honestly when I started researching out my first ever build AMD was an obvious choice. Intel really needs to do something amazing to get anyone who isn't a fanboy to buy their CPUs.

What’s your opinion on the gs66, I want to buy the i7 2070 super option because of its good price value there but I’m unsure if I should wait another month for something else
I had my heart set on purchasing the Razer Blade 15 base with the 1660ti 144hz for £1650. I managed to find a store with one on display, but in person I was not that impressed. The display models lid did not line up with the base, it was really scuffed up and the speaker grill stickers (yes they’re just stickers!) were peeling off, it really didn’t seem that premium. I ended up with a Lenovo Y540 with an i5, 1660ti and 144hz for £960. It was replacing my AW m17 r2 i7 2070 max q which I had nothing but problems with. The Y540 is great, plays games perfectly and the laptop can cool the i5 correctly, so no more throttling. It runs nearly 10c cooler than the m17. Honestly with AW and Razer you’re just paying a premium for the name, and there are some real horror stories of Razer reliability/CS. I couldn’t be happier with the Lenovo and I saved nearly £700 for a similar specced laptop. An extra £200 gets you the i7 and bigger ssd if it’s a must for you. Just my 2 cents.
Picked up one of these laptops at best buy for $1399, 2070 max-q. Runs everything I throw at it buttery smooth, usually over 100fps max settings 1080p. I disabled turbo mode on the cpu out of curiosity, temps went way down and gaming performance didn't change.
I bought a Razer Stealth with a GeForce MX150. I love the chassis build, but everything else has been a major disappointment. The first one had audio popping issues, and had to be RMA'd. It took over a month. The second one arrived and all was good...for a little while. The audio is now crackling and popping anytime the power is plugged in. Audio in Dice games is just broken. When playing games, the CPU constantly locks itself to 1300 (ish) mhz. I have to pull the power cord and put it back in to get it to boost. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. The screen is meh, and I can't get used to the weird shift key... I plan to give the unit to a relative and get an Asus Zephyrus 14 with a Ryzen and 2060. Sorry Razer, I really, really wanted to like it.
On Razer's website, the Base 2020 model starts with the i7 9750H, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD and 16GB RAM running at 2667MHz. So, thats a lot different than what you showed us. Maybe the US and EU models are different?
to everyone thinking of buying this laptop, make sure you get it from best buy and get geek squad protection . they cover water damage , drops , hardware and software problems . your paying extra money but well worth it. razor blade customer service is shit.
Very interested in a comparison between the Asus g14 and the 1660ti razer blade 15” 2020 as mentioned in this vid. Do you get more bang for your buck with the g14? Or does razers cooling tech edge off the ~$100 price differential? Even if it doesn’t, I think I would still buy the razer blade for Aesthetics and historically better brand resale value compared to asus laptops.
So I take it that all of the Advanced models of the blade 15 will include the SD card reader? or is it only included on selected configurations of the advanced model?
Thats a great point to point review 👍 A quick question, Should I buy Razer 2020 Base Model with i7-10750H 2070 maxQ super ($1899) which comes with 512TB SSD + 16GB RAM or Razer 2020 Advanced Model with i7-10875H 2070 maxQ SUPER ($2399) which comes with 512GB SSD + 16GB . I play games like overwatch, apexlegends, Dota2, league of legends and some latest games. I also use the laptop for adobe cloud nonprofessional usage like photoshop, ljghroom and premiumpro . I do highly appreciate your input in above matter. Thanks
About the keyboard, is it the optical switches or the standard switch? The optical ones are supposed to feel a little different. I have the 2019 advanced model and the keyboard feels pretty good to me. Coming from a MBP I can feel less resistance but it's still comfortable to type on.
I’ve been using a rb14 gtx1060, and yes it does fry itself so I play it near the ac and i use a monitor so that it wouldnt do the bsof. Surprisingly, it does work.. it only shuts down when the ac’s turned off. I’ve ordered my rb15 rtx2060 and will be delivered to me next month.

While this video is for the razer blade 16,i just wanted to praise you for your amazing work you do with your videos,they are crystal clear and the color grading is🔥
Where does Razer 15 stack up against an X1 gen 2 extreme ($3100)? Purchased one yesterday and i feel like i over paid. Can a razer 15 provide similiar power/battery and ability to do moderate video editing and what model would you recommend?
I have a 15 inch laptop with I5-8300H and 1050TI mobile. On the other hand i have a HP envy 13 x360 Ryzen 5 2500U. Could the Razer blade stealth GTX replace both of them and do the same (especially performance wise) ?
I have a question on the loss of the Mini DisplayPort - is the replacement Type-C port hooked to the graphics adapter so you can properly use high refresh/gsync on an external monitor? I just dealt with this on my older Razer blade as I discovered the thunderbolt port cannot be used as a high-end display output...
In my Area is If want 4K Screen on a Razer Blade I have only one configuration and it is the most expensive "Razer Studio"... I like those laptop and to me the same problem remain with this brand. The configuration available is not the same for all area. 16GB ram only even when you paid 4500 USD and at this price you don't have the latest keyboard... And the basic guaranty only one year even when you spend 4500USD. I am curious to see how it will turn when they provide Ryzen. However since they don't much improve their way to do I am more and more looking to change for Asus ProArt...
please could you make a video talking about the performance, battery, thermals etc. please I really wanna know. Thanks, Im starting college this year and it would really help me.
Ugh. Upgraded to the 2020 Razer (from the 2019) and I hate this keyboard. The right FN key never bothered me before - the arrow keys were perfect and now - productivity is taking a real beating thanks to muscle memory. Those tiny up and down arrow keys need to die when it's time to upgrade again. Also - is it just me or are the speakers tinnier-sounding this year?
Hardware Canucks I understand - habits are hard to break. But I would hope you decide in the future to reshoot the video when that happens to spare him the embarrassment.
I don't like nitpicking a somewhat common and trivial grammar mistake. However, the rest of the video was written and narrated perfectly, so that part stood out a lot and was a bit jarring.
So funny enough i scored a Blade Pro 17 with the 2070 maxq a week before they made this announcement....I got that one from amazon for 2k so i saved 700 bucks....should I honestly be worried of the difference in performance between these new ones or not?
so is it worth selling my Razer Blade 15 Mercury Edition (i7-9750H, RTX 2070 Max Q, 16 GB Ram, 512 GB) from Summer 2019 and paying the difference for the new one ? (i7-10875H, RTX 2070 Super Max Q, 16 GB Ram, 512 GB but 300 Hz instead of 240) would it make a big difference ? I mean it´s not that old, but i guess the 8 months droped the price of the "old" one that much, that i would have to pay 1000$ on top for the new one :D
Hey guys. I have a question here. I am interested in Razer Blade 15 Base model (i7-10750H, RTX 2070 Max-Q, 512GB SSD). Question is about maximum RAM the base model can be upgraded to. In pass the base model could go up to 32GB RAM when Advanced to 64GB RAM. Do you know how is gonna be with 2020 Razer Blade 15 version? And why is there different in maximum RAM between advance and base model. Thanks in advance
If the LTT video is anything to go by, this next year is basically just going to be AMD all the way. I own a old blade 14 and love the thing, but at that price, unless intel has really stepped up their game, its going to be really hard to recommend the blade against competing Ryzen based devices
but cant you get a 144hz screen minimum with every model? i can find plenty of other laptops with 2080super with a 1080p 60hz screen. razer is basically making high refresh rate standard. no other company is doing that
That's a lot of power and 4k now makes sense in a laptop. I got the Thinkpad X1E gen2 for photo editing and it includes a card reader for work. That's the only piece the Razer is missing but not a deal breaker. I am extremely interested to see a version with the new AMD cpu's as I think it might even perform better. I have seen a desktop AMD motherboard with a Thunderboldt port so if Razer could retain that then the Blade would be truly amazing.
I bought a razer laptop in 2015.....it was the most expensive heater I have ever purchased and it doesn't sound like they have fixed their thermals even after these 5 years.
I don't know what you are talking about, but i have acer vx15, no performance degradation of any sort (besides storage) after 3 years of heavy use (CAD, BIM, Photoshop, Rendering and gaming) My scenario necessitates me to have a high performance laptop, But IMO razer product are always been a step beyond diminishing returns.
I am hesitating to buy the razer blade 15 base model, does anyone recommend this? Are there similar laptops with the same specs at a different pricing maybe?
While Razer hasn't made any official statements or comments about the use of AMD in future Blades (that part of the video was us just dreaming in technicolor!), if they EVER did think about making a move, what would be your perfect config??

I had my heart set on purchasing the Razer Blade 15 base with the 1660ti 144hz for £1650. I managed to find a store with one on display, but in person I was not that impressed. The display models lid did not line up with the base, it was really scuffed up and the speaker grill stickers (yes they’re just stickers!) were peeling off, it really didn’t seem that premium. I ended up with a Lenovo Y540 with an i5, 1660ti and 144hz for £960. It was replacing my AW m17 r2 i7 2070 max q which I had nothing but problems with. The Y540 is great, plays games perfectly and the laptop can cool the i5 correctly, so no more throttling. It runs nearly 10c cooler than the m17. Honestly with AW and Razer you’re just paying a premium for the name, and there are some real horror stories of Razer reliability/CS. I couldn’t be happier with the Lenovo and I saved nearly £700 for a similar specced laptop. An extra £200 gets you the i7 and bigger ssd if it’s a must for you. Just my 2 cents.
Picked up one of these laptops at best buy for $1399, 2070 max-q. Runs everything I throw at it buttery smooth, usually over 100fps max settings 1080p. I disabled turbo mode on the cpu out of curiosity, temps went way down and gaming performance didn't change.
Like apple you pay for the chassis, trackpad, screen, size and noise.
I bought a Razer Stealth with a GeForce MX150. I love the chassis build, but everything else has been a major disappointment. The first one had audio popping issues, and had to be RMA'd. It took over a month. The second one arrived and all was good...for a little while. The audio is now crackling and popping anytime the power is plugged in. Audio in Dice games is just broken. When playing games, the CPU constantly locks itself to 1300 (ish) mhz. I have to pull the power cord and put it back in to get it to boost. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. The screen is meh, and I can't get used to the weird shift key... I plan to give the unit to a relative and get an Asus Zephyrus 14 with a Ryzen and 2060. Sorry Razer, I really, really wanted to like it.
On Razer's website, the Base 2020 model starts with the i7 9750H, 128GB SSD + 1TB HDD and 16GB RAM running at 2667MHz. So, thats a lot different than what you showed us. Maybe the US and EU models are different?
What I don't understand, 16gb of ram for 3300 dollars??? Same as the very base model... I'd expect at least 32gb at that price range.
to everyone thinking of buying this laptop, make sure you get it from best buy and get geek squad protection . they cover water damage , drops , hardware and software problems . your paying extra money but well worth it. razor blade customer service is shit.
At the 5:42 mark, what's the name of that background music?
Razer : "You kept whining about the right shift key , so there you have it, the *most reachable shift key in the universe* !!!"
AMD Ryzen 4 and RTX 2070 super, is that too much to ask!
Intel buying OEMs thats problem
You ask for AMD, Intel hands over money so answer is no.
Very interested in a comparison between the Asus g14 and the 1660ti razer blade 15” 2020 as mentioned in this vid. Do you get more bang for your buck with the g14? Or does razers cooling tech edge off the ~$100 price differential? Even if it doesn’t, I think I would still buy the razer blade for Aesthetics and historically better brand resale value compared to asus laptops.
So I take it that all of the Advanced models of the blade 15 will include the SD card reader? or is it only included on selected configurations of the advanced model?
Concerning your sponsor: When will K95 Platinum XT be available in regions such as Europe? So far I can only buy them with US layout here in Germany.
With their new blades coming out, do you think those SSD storages are still upgradable
Thats a great point to point review 👍
A quick question, Should I buy Razer 2020 Base Model with i7-10750H 2070 maxQ super ($1899) which comes with 512TB SSD + 16GB RAM or Razer 2020 Advanced Model with i7-10875H 2070 maxQ SUPER ($2399) which comes with 512GB SSD + 16GB . I play games like overwatch, apexlegends, Dota2, league of legends and some latest games. I also use the laptop for adobe cloud nonprofessional usage like photoshop, ljghroom and premiumpro .
I do highly appreciate your input in above matter. Thanks
With the price of NVMe drives dropping, I'm completely fine for a second M.2 slot instead of a SATA drive.
About the keyboard, is it the optical switches or the standard switch? The optical ones are supposed to feel a little different. I have the 2019 advanced model and the keyboard feels pretty good to me. Coming from a MBP I can feel less resistance but it's still comfortable to type on.
Yeah I think I'll just get the Zephyrus G14.

I’ve been using a rb14 gtx1060, and yes it does fry itself so I play it near the ac and i use a monitor so that it wouldnt do the bsof. Surprisingly, it does work.. it only shuts down when the ac’s turned off. I’ve ordered my rb15 rtx2060 and will be delivered to me next month. Anyway, ppl are saying there’s still a prob w heat control?:( Does it still heat up (like the rb14) even if I play connected to a monitor?? Hope someone answers. TYIA.

Also since realy rtx 2060 is so similar to gtx 1660 ti ( 80w) what aboit maxq rtx 2060 and gtx 1660 ti that g14 uses at 60w?
Also compare ryzen to intel 10grn for gaming...
Just a few ideas...
Can I do the chroma rainbow effect on the base model?
I like the nVme capability of this new model. For gaming or editing work flows, we cannot beat the performance of an nVme SSD. (:
Gaming doesn't benefit from NVme SSDs.
Icommenthere Sounds good. Thank you.
While this video is for the razer blade 16,i just wanted to praise you for your amazing work you do with your videos,they are crystal clear and the color grading is🔥
I think when they removed the sata slot they should have made the battery bigger even for the base model as you are paying 1500+ $
Where does Razer 15 stack up against an X1 gen 2 extreme ($3100)? Purchased one yesterday and i feel like i over paid. Can a razer 15 provide similiar power/battery and ability to do moderate video editing and what model would you recommend?
What about thermals? How hot is it in your lap?
Which of the models offers touchscreen capability? Is it only the OLED 4k (Advanced Model?)
I have a 15 inch laptop with I5-8300H and 1050TI mobile. On the other hand i have a HP envy 13 x360 Ryzen 5 2500U. Could the Razer blade stealth GTX replace both of them and do the same (especially performance wise) ?
Just order a 2020 Razer Blade Base with a 4K display and I can't wait to use it!
I have a question on the loss of the Mini DisplayPort - is the replacement Type-C port hooked to the graphics adapter so you can properly use high refresh/gsync on an external monitor? I just dealt with this on my older Razer blade as I discovered the thunderbolt port cannot be used as a high-end display output...
In my Area is If want 4K Screen on a Razer Blade I have only one configuration and it is the most expensive "Razer Studio"...
I like those laptop and to me the same problem remain with this brand.
The configuration available is not the same for all area.
16GB ram only even when you paid 4500 USD and at this price you don't have the latest keyboard...
And the basic guaranty only one year even when you spend 4500USD.
I am curious to see how it will turn when they provide Ryzen.
However since they don't much improve their way to do I am more and more looking to change for Asus ProArt...
please could you make a video talking about the performance, battery, thermals etc. please I really wanna know. Thanks, Im starting college this year and it would really help me.
I just stopped watching when you said no AMD CPUs. I am definitely buying 4900HS this year.
Good luck. Its sounding increasingly like AMD's supply of their CPUs will be majorly constrained until the end of the year.
@@HardwareCanucks Feels like desktop Zen2 all over again. Because of that delay I decided to stick with my 1600X for another year to wait for Zen3.
Ugh. Upgraded to the 2020 Razer (from the 2019) and I hate this keyboard. The right FN key never bothered me before - the arrow keys were perfect and now - productivity is taking a real beating thanks to muscle memory. Those tiny up and down arrow keys need to die when it's time to upgrade again. Also - is it just me or are the speakers tinnier-sounding this year?
The removal of the minidisplay will eliminate the chances of using moder vr headsets
“More faster...” sigh.
We've been trying SO HARD to shake Mr.Eber from that but....its getting to be his thing. 😎😎
Hardware Canucks I understand - habits are hard to break. But I would hope you decide in the future to reshoot the video when that happens to spare him the embarrassment.
Dude, it's not that serious. More faster = definitely faster than faster. LOL
I don't like nitpicking a somewhat common and trivial grammar mistake. However, the rest of the video was written and narrated perfectly, so that part stood out a lot and was a bit jarring.
As long as it's not the most fastest...
So funny enough i scored a Blade Pro 17 with the 2070 maxq a week before they made this announcement....I got that one from amazon for 2k so i saved 700 bucks....should I honestly be worried of the difference in performance between these new ones or not?
so is it worth selling my Razer Blade 15 Mercury Edition (i7-9750H, RTX 2070 Max Q, 16 GB Ram, 512 GB) from Summer 2019 and paying the difference for the new one ?
(i7-10875H, RTX 2070 Super Max Q, 16 GB Ram, 512 GB but 300 Hz instead of 240)
would it make a big difference ?
I mean it´s not that old, but i guess the 8 months droped the price of the "old" one that much, that i would have to pay 1000$ on top for the new one :D
Is the Blade 15 Advanced 1080p 300hz Display touch screen as well?
Can you tell me what audio cable you're using with your Sennheiser headphones at 8:53?
have you had any long term issues with razer products?
Hey guys. I have a question here. I am interested in Razer Blade 15 Base model (i7-10750H, RTX 2070 Max-Q, 512GB SSD).
Question is about maximum RAM the base model can be upgraded to. In pass the base model could go up to 32GB RAM when Advanced to 64GB RAM. Do you know how is gonna be with 2020 Razer Blade 15 version? And why is there different in maximum RAM between advance and base model.
Thanks in advance
If the LTT video is anything to go by, this next year is basically just going to be AMD all the way. I own a old blade 14 and love the thing, but at that price, unless intel has really stepped up their game, its going to be really hard to recommend the blade against competing Ryzen based devices
Where I can get Razer in India ?
Really need it for my Photography Editing..
but cant you get a 144hz screen minimum with every model? i can find plenty of other laptops with 2080super with a 1080p 60hz screen. razer is basically making high refresh rate standard. no other company is doing that
Does the 4k OLED Advanced model have a 2nd m.2 SSD slot?
That's a lot of power and 4k now makes sense in a laptop. I got the Thinkpad X1E gen2 for photo editing and it includes a card reader for work. That's the only piece the Razer is missing but not a deal breaker. I am extremely interested to see a version with the new AMD cpu's as I think it might even perform better. I have seen a desktop AMD motherboard with a Thunderboldt port so if Razer could retain that then the Blade would be truly amazing.
Keyboards are such a personal preference. I love my Razer's keyboard. I hope they never change them.
I know the 2019 advanced model had a variant of the RTX 2070 max-q with the optical mechanical keyboard. Will the 2020 version have the same thing?
No. :(
I bought a razer laptop in 2015.....it was the most expensive heater I have ever purchased and it doesn't sound like they have fixed their thermals even after these 5 years.
Hi do you know when the blade 15 will come out?
Nothing makes me chuckle more than a gaming laptop, always is at max temps, sounds like a jet engine and ages out in less that 2 years.

cause you are too poor to buy one every year

No it does not.
they’re probably forced to use intel because of contracts or some shit like that.
We think its more due to the complexity of platform switching in an existing chassis.
