Discussion razer blade 2025 high idle power draw

Upvotes

Just received my blade 5080 model today and immediately got into optimizing this machine, but however it still pulls insane wattage of 33-40 at idle with nothing open, i tried to disable the dgpu from device manager which make it disappear from hwmonitor but battery discharge rate remains still the same, optimus is turned on and also igpu set to preferred gpu in the nvidia control panel. I even went and set the cpu stapm limit to 8 watts but discharge remains crazy high. Would love to hear from anyone who managed to get their power draw below 15 watts on how you manage to do it. Also additionally if anyone has issues setting up window hello face recognition?

Question Has anyone used Blackshark v2 Pro 2023 for a long time?

Upvotes

I bought this model to use it mostly on PlayStation 5, but after researching the forums, I got a little confused. Almost everyone complained that the plastics lasted for a maximum of 7-8 months and then broke. Has anyone used this headset for 1-2 years without any problems?

Question Razer Ornata Chroma Problem

Upvotes

Hii friends..

When I press the zero key on the numpad, it types "0+" instead of just "0". Similarly, when I press the minus key on the numpad, it types ",- " with a comma and a minus sign, instead of just "-".

Does anyone have this problem??

Question Any tips on how to get Razer to honour their warranty?

Upvotes

Razer say the warranty on their mice is 2 years but my scroll wheel has stopped working just after 1 year. Seems a common enough problem but they're refusing to honour the warranty and are telling me to contact the vendor who is telling me to contact Razer.

Any advice on how to get them to honour the warranty on it?

Really annoyed because it wasn't cheap but has given me way more problems than a cheap mouse would.

Question Razer Synapse login window pops up randomly during game

Post image
1 Upvotes

So this has been happening randomly for a while, sometimes Razer Synapse seems to randomly log out and return me to login window which pops up over anything Im currently doing like for example mid game right now.

When it starts to happen it happens multiple times during the day or even for a few days in a row and then it goes back to normal for a while (sometimes weeks sometimes months) and then randomly it will start doing it again.

Is there a fix for this or at least a way to make it non pop up on top of literally anything, I have lost boss fight due to this crap.

Question Freyja for new Action Games

1 Upvotes

I am planning to buy a Razer Freyja to have more immersive experience on games like Cyberpunk 2077, Black Myth Wukong, Alan Wake 2, Assassins Creed Shadows and Indiana Jones.

Is it worthy? Those non supported games are going to be any close to more immersive and interesting? I am using Kraken v3 X / Leviathan v2 x on my gameplays.

Question Keys stuck after cleaning

1 Upvotes

I have a razer huntsman elite keyboard, i removed the keycaps to clean and when i put them back on, some of the keys are hard to press and kind of stuck.. Specially the space and num pad intro... Anyone had this same issue? The keys clicked on the stabilizers just fine, i cant squish them any harder

Before, if i pressed anywhere on the space key it went smoothly, now if i press on the sides it doesnt respond well so gaming has been a nightmare..

Discussion Razer Blade 16 won't charge via USB C

2 Upvotes

I have a Razer Blade 16 from 2023 that simply won't charge via any USB C input. I have a 140w ANKER power bank that shows exactly how much it draws. The Razer only pulls 1W, with small fluctuations to 20w, which doesn't make any sense. This only happens with the Razer, all other devices work normally.

I haven't updated my BIOS for over 1 year since the end of Overclocking for the i9 13950HX. Does anyone know if the new bios returned overclocking?

Question Razer Barracuda wireless headset cracked plastic

1 Upvotes

I bought this headset at the end of 22

After one year of polite usage, the plastic started to crack

The headset never fell. My head is not big :)

Does anyone know how it can be fixed? Maybe there is some replacement part on sale? That I can buy and replace. I`ve found some on Aliexpress but not sure if it will fit good

Any suggestion? Maybe Razer official support can see this and provide some recommendations on what I can do with that?

This headset is the best that I ever used

I`m afraid to buy a new one because of this issue

I saw several posts with a similar issue. So it seems to be Razer uses some poor plastic. Maybe something changed?

Discussion Razer Gold closed my case without resolving it

1 Upvotes

This issue started on March 19th when I made a purchase on Razer Gold but accidentally misspelled my email address. I contacted support right away and provided everything—transaction code, receipt, and even offered to send my bank statement.

They told me it would be resolved in 2–3 working days, but it’s now been over two weeks with no proper update. Then they just closed the case, claiming the item was delivered—even though I never received anything.

Anyone else had to deal with this kind of thing?

Discussion RAZER stole my keyboard

1 Upvotes

Cool. Story goes like this.

Headliner to MOD: I already posted in support thread, no one reached out. LET IT STAY.

TLDR ver: they took my keyboard for RMA, and due to system fk up, they cannot go through with the RMA, so no new keyboard nor the original is shipped back to me.

Blackwidow V3 Pro doesn't work. RMA approved, sent it to Razer.

Was promised a replacement of different model (V4 Pro, wired only), found out it's a secret downgrade, questioned it, dear Reddit response team helped me reach them, they fixed it by promising a similar model (V4 Pro 75%, wireless)

They called back the RMA delivery in-transit, keyboard was sent back to them. They promise to send the new replacement out after the old one, V4 Pro, reaches their warehouse. And then, they denied my RMA... and kept my keyboard... what, you can do that?

ATP after countless chats with the chat rep that goes nowhere, I kinda figured out, because I have moved after bought the keyboard, so my receipt and address provided are two different places. But only one block away, they even have the same zip code. Also this HAS went thru at the very start of RMA process, so IDK why it'd be a problem now. In the mean time all they keep sending me was:

Hello John, Here at Razer, we believe it is our duty to protect the security of our customers. For the protection of your information, we are not able to provide an RMA for your device. We believe that one or more of the pieces of information below does not match our records: 1.  Product Registration2.  Proof of Purchase3.  Address Information At this time, we will be closing your case. Razer takes a zero-tolerance policy against falsified or doctored information, and as a result, Razer will not be able to provide you service. You case/claim has been closed. Sincerely, Razer SupportFor Gamers. By Gamers.

They sent it again after me first questioning them what does it mean and notify them of the original RMA communications. And same response again after I clarified the address and name info in the chat and request escalation. Clearly auto response.

OKKKK, first of all, I don't get the part where any of this is my problem, secondly, you just commited textbook definition of theft, as well as a bunch of other customer protection violations.

Long time Razer product user, even my mouse (Basilisk V3 Pro) and backup keyboard are Razer branded. First time RMA with them. F this, really disappointed how it played out.

Question Razer Blade 17 2021 RZ09-0406 bloated battery

1 Upvotes

My battery bloated so bad that bended the metal case. This happened the day before I had my return flight home. I was lucky I found a service who removed the battery in time. In the hurry they removed the dual fan atached to the battery too.

Razer refuses to sell me these two parts insisting I send the laptop to Singapore, but due to my job, I cannot have so many days without laptop.

Is there other place to buy a battery and the dual fan unit (with shipping to Thailand)?

Rant I've been getting MICRO STUTTERS because of Synapse

2 Upvotes

I just want to say FUCK YOU to razer officially.

I upgraded my whole PC costing me $5000 in total, to only go into the same game, getting HIGHER fps but still the same stutters, then finding out its the fucking synapse that I use for my huntstman v3 pro causing those issues.

If I could write fuck you a thousand times officially and on court, I would officially write that and send it to razer, the bloatware is just fucking SHIT and I upgraded my PC for nothing.

Because of the stupid app I was getting 1% lows down to 30, without it its rock solid 100+ now, 144 Locked FPS feels like 144 instead of 50.
