im pretty sure it did overheat.From just small amount of gameplay ,the cpu is thermal throttling and so is the gpu...the i7 8750h should easily boost to nearly 4Ghz .
Isn't the max temp for i7 8750h is 100C? Thermal throttling in it usually starts at 95°C, but the processor isn't constantly at 95. That or there's the turbo mode somewhere that they don't mention. Now I think about it they don't show the wattage in the MSi benchmark. Probably the manufacturers limit the wattage TDP to prevent it hits the boiling point. The GPU definitely hits the thermal limit though.
I gotta say, for 500$ that is probably the best laptop you could get, 1060, an i7 and a 144hz display? Banger deal no doubts. Perhaps just as a quick note, since you guys use a massive mousepad under every laptop review, I think you're not doing a big favor to the laptop temps, I know that a laptop base is technically not included but perhaps using one or just using the table you would still have better airflow for that poor i7 to breathe, although to be fair those are fairly normal temps for a laptop, specially being that thin.
Sorry to nitpick, but my 2016 Razer Blade Pro has 32Gb of DDR4 soldered to the board, and a desktop GTX 1080 8Gb GPU, however I doubt that I will ever need more!
bought a razer blade stealth 2019 with the touch screen 4k display and the gtx 1650 for 500 euros about 2 weeks ago, it was an amazing deal (the seller was also really nice too, gave me a discount from 600 bc he saw i was a college student). BUT BEWARE, the battery was puffed up to the point where the screen wouldnt close, you should definitely check for that (i bought a new battery for 75 euros from ebay and it works great now)
It is so strange for this video to come out just now, as I actually JUST bought a 2018 blade 15 off eBay.... like a week ago, and paid about the same too! Sadly mine showed up as the "basic model" (1060 and a 60hz display) instead of the "advance model" you guys got. Thankfully though I got a pretty good partial refund for mine so I went well below 500 and it's still pretty decent!
tbh gaming laptop imo is an extremely poor concept, to even get decent performance, you need pay a big premium, sacrifice screen size, have good air flow, bunch of peripherals and a huge power brick plugged in at all times which basically kills the portability, which ironically is the sole selling point of a laptop, and you still get thermal throttling to a degree, in the end its a master of none getting the worst of both sides. The only wise decision is to have a dedicated high end rig at home for gaming and heavy use, and a high end productivity laptop(e.g. MacBook M2/ Lenovo Thinkpad) for doing work on the go. playing immersive AAA games in a crowded coffee shop with your gadgets and power brick all hanging around during lunch break is dumb anyways. This is not about being rich or not, this is about practicality and technology limits.

My 2020 Blade PL throttles quite a lot, so I always get the feeling I’m not getting as much out of it as it’s capable of. It’s a shame, as otherwise it’s a nice machine.
as do I. I appreciate a simple design with functional vents and a metal chassis. if I ever need to get rid of my HP envy X360 then I'll more than likely go Razor. but I doubt it, the ENVY is an absolute unit for the price.
I had an ROG Zephyus in 2018 it had a very smooth 1080p 120hz screen and gtx 1060 and intel 8th Gen 8750h an di remember buying my first ever high refreshrate experience I got it for like 1300 it's was one of the first slim models but still had fatass bezels 😆 and it ran games amazingly
Got my Blade Advanced 2019 for $438 (converted from PHP) last September. i7-8th Gen, 16GB RAM, RTX 2070 Max-Q, 4k 60Hz Touchscreen then battery was replaced 2 months before I buy it. Money well spent. Super awesome!
I got this same laptop from seller for 350$ with new battery replacement and a 1070 Max-Q. It is overall good for the casual Gaming i do and the battery is also pretty good for a gaming laptop.
I’ve wanted one of these all my life man and now I’m stuck with a laptop that’s burning up and I’ll probably destroy just gaming thanks for the video and guiding me
This laptop can run destiny 2 at 120fps 1080p with an external monitor. Picked one up for $50 due to touchpad and battery bloating issues. The display bezel is peeling from heat I assume but can't find a better deal for a secondary gaming PC.
My 10 year old sony notebook pc runs older games and sims pretty well, but it gets soooo hot. The fan inside is still working. I put blocks of balsa wood under it to increase air flow/cooling.

Just won myself a 1660 oc auction, going to send my 780acx to my arcade cab & 570 to a secondary desktop in the house. 1660 is where it's at for me especially one with a bit of a boost to it.

my experience with razer products is: $100 headphones with useless mic and sound started dying after 5 months a mouse and keyboard that constantly want to install software
I have a similar laptop also from Razer Blade Advance 15, but mine has an i7-10875H CPU with 16 GB of ram and an RTX 2080S Max Q GPU and a 1 TB SSD and my display is 1080P at 300Hz refresh. Mine seems to be slightly newer than this, from early to mid 2020.
i just recently bought a 3050, i5-12450h and a 144hz display 8 gigs of ram (gonna ugprade) for 550$ usd (bought in cad though) yall think i did the right move to not waiting for black friday?
judging by the lamb background he had some fresh gaming taste, i do have a hp pavilion an older one with an i5 8th gen and a gtx1060, where did he go with this, but he mostly played racing games. Dont ask what do i mean by where did it go but hey cool, razer is an epic laptop for the money, these days they are still cpable, the ssds are dirt cheap. i was looking to buy a used razer, but i didnt decied to go new instead. Not a razer but still a good laptop nonetheless
what's your spec? Mine's GTX 1080 OC'd, 6700HQ OC'd and undervolted by -155mV, 32GB DDR4, 2x256Gb SSD and a 3Tb external mechanical spinning disc. I've got "top binned" everything. The spinning disc is custom, my GPU is in the top 1% of stock cooled overclocks, for all machine types, including desktops, with desktop 1080 GPU's, hitting 72C at peak. Can you guess who made it yet?
tl:dr the Razer Blade Pro 2016 makes your desktop look small to me, screw Rocket League, maxed out, modded, 1080p, Ultra Godrays Fallout 4, locked at 60fps with V-Sync on mine, would make the laptop in this video cry and max out at 20fps or so, lol
@@RedPillRachel well regardless, i still feel that laptop for gaming is a very bad idea, even if the performance is decent, the battery life is gonna be crap and need to be plugged at all times. with that same money you spend on the laptop, getting a high end rig is just so much better and make more sense, using laptop for work and productivity on the go is the only wise decision.
@@RedPillRachel 4k pounds on a laptop is the dumbest thing here besides your bad english comprehension. and a 400 buck thinkpad from 1998 still works today, so whats your point? a laptop can never beat a desktop of the same price point in performance is a fact, get a grip.
This is an ok deal but not as good as you might think when for just about $1k you have a i9/3080 tier laptop in the all AMD ROG Strix 15 w/ the R9/6800m combo and the crazy 2k 165hz IPS display. I think the sweet spot for laptops in general is about the $7-800 price point for those with a desktop system too. I went a little overboard but the deal is too good to pass up on that model. TBH there isn't much more you can get out of laptops in general other than DDR5 ram in the G14s which are a few hundred more and not worth IMO. The M16 is worth a look though too. Razer really isn't that good of a value brand.
I can see that your cpu is only running at base clock speed which is low, i7-8750h has a max of 4.10ghz freq. you're losing performance here. Try to configure first your Nvidia Control panel and the Laptop Power setting to High Performance.
I actually have this laptop and upgraded last year to the razer blade 14 3070 I have to be honest the 1060 in this laptop is good but it just doesn’t get good performance in call of duty or any new game for that matter this laptop was good for its time but is incredibly out dated now and it gets really hot because it has no vaper chamber
Youre katana is wrong way you cant put it on the stand with the blade down it will dmadge the blade also turning it to the right means youre in a war ;)
I was comparing this to try to find Tbros benchmark with my xps 17 9700. wow surprised that that laptop is doing so well. Mine should be even better GeForce RTX 2060 with Max-Q Design . I'm going to sell my big gaming pc and just use my laptop.
Still rocking the the aero 15v8 same cpu but with 1070 Max Q and 32gb of ram from the same time, 2017-2018 was the golden time for intel laptops moving from 4c4t to 6c12t then 8c16t in rocket lake and rtx 20's was questionable alas around 2019 ye'ole covid 19 wrecked every gpu and ryzen was far more compelling looking at you Asus g14
they probably don't run on the same screen and have the same resolution, that makes a huge difference. Running a 34 inch ultrawide 6k monitor 280fps is leagues above running a 14 inch 1080p laptop monitor 200fps, even if its "just" a 80 fps difference. The gpu power difference needed is insane. Looking at the numbers out of context is plain misleading.
I have an MSI with the same i7 and 1060 6GB and it doesn't get nearly that hot. Did u have to fans on quiet or was that full blast? I've barely used mine since 2018 tho, not sure if that matters.

Heyy... great review!! I'm thinking of buying this laptop but I'm hearing from different reviews that this pc has a BSOD problem and it doesn't use its GPU at all in terms of 3d rendering and vfx editing I'm an graphics designer and video editor and the prices are still pretty high in my country(around $800) Pls has this issue been resolved or should I just get a dell xps 15 2018 model instead I wouldn't want to spend $800 on a laptop and have it crashing on me I'll appreciate you're response thanks!!
I have the Razer Blade 2018 (Base Model) since 2019 and never had the BSOD issue, now I'm running Windows 11 with no problem at all. You should go with the Razer, because you will have better graphics card (gtx 1060 instead of 1050), so you can also play games...
I have a question, my laptop is a MacBook Pro from 2019 I got it for $650 but still I get low fps like 30-40 per game. Is there any thing I can do to fix this ?
im pretty sure it did overheat.From just small amount of gameplay ,the cpu is thermal throttling and so is the gpu...the i7 8750h should easily boost to nearly 4Ghz .

@@wamlamwanla4722 the deals sadly gone its back up to the normal price rip, the deal was gone the moment i ordered it lmao
Yooooo I bought razer blade 15 2019 base model for $500. I'm really excited to play games with it for this winter.
2600 bux and not even a mux switch? Prime example of how you pay for the razer logo more than the laptop
will you be selling that laptop on your website?
You guys can add keyboard on it?
judging by the lamb background he had some fresh gaming taste, i do have a hp pavilion an older one with an i5 8th gen and a gtx1060, where did he go with this, but he mostly played racing games. Dont ask what do i mean by where did it go but hey cool, razer is an epic laptop for the money, these days they are still cpable, the ssds are dirt cheap. i was looking to buy a used razer, but i didnt decied to go new instead. Not a razer but still a good laptop nonetheless
Pretty capable laptop, but i wouldn't give up my desktop PC ever.
what's your spec? Mine's GTX 1080 OC'd, 6700HQ OC'd and undervolted by -155mV, 32GB DDR4, 2x256Gb SSD and a 3Tb external mechanical spinning disc. I've got "top binned" everything. The spinning disc is custom, my GPU is in the top 1% of stock cooled overclocks, for all machine types, including desktops, with desktop 1080 GPU's, hitting 72C at peak. Can you guess who made it yet?
tl:dr the Razer Blade Pro 2016 makes your desktop look small to me, screw Rocket League, maxed out, modded, 1080p, Ultra Godrays Fallout 4, locked at 60fps with V-Sync on mine, would make the laptop in this video cry and max out at 20fps or so, lol
@@RedPillRachel well regardless, i still feel that laptop for gaming is a very bad idea, even if the performance is decent, the battery life is gonna be crap and need to be plugged at all times. with that same money you spend on the laptop, getting a high end rig is just so much better and make more sense, using laptop for work and productivity on the go is the only wise decision.
@@grapefruitsyrup8185 you can barely speak english and you have an opinion this dumb on my £4000 laptop which I earned, and which still works (2022)?
@@RedPillRachel 4k pounds on a laptop is the dumbest thing here besides your bad english comprehension. and a 400 buck thinkpad from 1998 still works today, so whats your point? a laptop can never beat a desktop of the same price point in performance is a fact, get a grip.
I just bought a MSI Stealth with a core i7 8750, 1070 MaxQ, 32 GB Ram with the same 1080 144hz display for $600 CAD. is that worth the price?
Intresting to see them writing "WINDOWS 10" as OS when we can see Windows 11!!
Seth Rogen is that you😂
Damn for the price thats very good btw i got a hp pavilion 1060 3gb i74560 for 350 what do you think. Was this a good deal
Shoulda just saved up for a better laptop tbh. There are ones with 1650s that go for like 600-700 on good sales.
Shouod have saved your money. But its not bad bro.
This is awesome, I just bought the newest 17 Blade from them.
take the back off, let's see the dust. The perfect amount of thermal paste might help
This is an ok deal but not as good as you might think when for just about $1k you have a i9/3080 tier laptop in the all AMD ROG Strix 15 w/ the R9/6800m combo and the crazy 2k 165hz IPS display. I think the sweet spot for laptops in general is about the $7-800 price point for those with a desktop system too. I went a little overboard but the deal is too good to pass up on that model. TBH there isn't much more you can get out of laptops in general other than DDR5 ram in the G14s which are a few hundred more and not worth IMO. The M16 is worth a look though too. Razer really isn't that good of a value brand.
what is the model name of this laptop??
I can see that your cpu is only running at base clock speed which is low, i7-8750h has a max of 4.10ghz freq. you're losing performance here. Try to configure first your Nvidia Control panel and the Laptop Power setting to High Performance.
I actually have this laptop and upgraded last year to the razer blade 14 3070 I have to be honest the 1060 in this laptop is good but it just doesn’t get good performance in call of duty or any new game for that matter this laptop was good for its time but is incredibly out dated now and it gets really hot because it has no vaper chamber
Yo
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
You made it! Nice 👍🙂
how did u buy for cheap it costs alot
Like it, but sadly this laptop don't have VRR/FreeSync/Gsync because lcd connected to intel hd igpu
Bruh love the vids
A GTX 1060! HOW HARD IS IT TO MENTION THAT IN YOUR DESCRIPTION! Who gives a damn about the SSD!?!!
Me: reads title.....
Also me: what do YALL consider cheap razer laptop?
What's the name of the laptop
2,3-2,4 ghz on the cpu ...
Dude ope. That thing up and change thermal paste use synapse to change performance mode I guarantee your not running in performance mode
What you guys do with these laptops ?
4090 prebuilts video?
Youre katana is wrong way you cant put it on the stand with the blade down it will dmadge the blade also turning it to the right means youre in a war ;)
I was comparing this to try to find Tbros benchmark with my xps 17 9700. wow surprised that that laptop is doing so well. Mine should be even better GeForce RTX 2060 with Max-Q Design . I'm going to sell my big gaming pc and just use my laptop.
Still rocking the the aero 15v8 same cpu but with 1070 Max Q and 32gb of ram from the same time, 2017-2018 was the golden time for intel laptops moving from 4c4t to 6c12t then 8c16t in rocket lake and rtx 20's was questionable alas around 2019 ye'ole covid 19 wrecked every gpu and ryzen was far more compelling looking at you Asus g14
When they buy an “old” Razer laptop but it’s still newer than the one I use 💀
Please add super people game test too 🙂
The cpu and GPU temps💀💀
any gaming laptop suggestions for $700-$800 budget?
Gaming doesnt fit with laptops. I would get a pc for gaming and laptop for school or work. There re too many limitations on laptop gaming
@@zeronin4696 maybe they travel a lot so a gaming laptop would make sense in their situation
Steam deck?
You can get a refurbished laptop with an rtx 3060 in that budget
Acer nitro 5
I always wanted a razor gaming laptop one day I will afford one
That’s insane the rtx 4090 runs rocket league at 280fps avg and the laptop gtx 1060 gets an avg of 200 fps 🤯
they probably don't run on the same screen and have the same resolution, that makes a huge difference. Running a 34 inch ultrawide 6k monitor 280fps is leagues above running a 14 inch 1080p laptop monitor 200fps, even if its "just" a 80 fps difference. The gpu power difference needed is insane. Looking at the numbers out of context is plain misleading.
This or the 1650 one?
Can you do a build in the
MARSGAMING MCVP Pink, XXL ATX Gaming Case, Dual Tempered Glass, Dual Camera off Amazon?
Great video, as always. 💯
Which controller was Matt using to play Rocket League?
That looks good for 500 bucks… I would buy it for my kids.
I have an MSI with the same i7 and 1060 6GB and it doesn't get nearly that hot. Did u have to fans on quiet or was that full blast? I've barely used mine since 2018 tho, not sure if that matters.
@realtoastybros that's awesome I won. Do u need my debit card info?
@@fugginrambo It's a scam
@@avoni9348 Hahaha I was messing with them. Thanks for looking out tho!
Can y’all review this pre build pc at best buy iBUYPOWER Slate MR Gaming Desktop - Intel i3-10105F - 8GB DDR4 Memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 4GB - 480GB SSD
Gents by chance do you donate your old equipment to non profits? Would enjoy hearing how you helped your favorite non profit by donating your oldies but goodies. Then do a video for us.
Man these laptops are way expensive in Pakistan this one goes for like a $900 dollars if it was for $500 in my country i could've tried buying it cause i really need one. But then inflation also came and yeeted me into depression that i cant buy a good laptop now
Try looking for laptops from newegg
@@prodigyow Sadly newegg doesnt ship to pakistan and if it does international shipping costs rn are a lot
@@Black-Lotus I'm sure the shipping cost + laptop price would be still cheaper than what u can get in Pakistan
@@prodigyow Have you seen the inflation in Pak and do you know that the government has banned imports?
@@Black-Lotus I'm pretty sure the ban on imports is for buying stuff in bulk .
plug in key boards ftw
love ur content alway watch your vids.
hello good morning and happy today please i want asking your about laptops I need gaming laptop with lower price HP victus or Lenovo legion 5 or Acer nitro 5 or Dell g15 or MSI or Asus
and other laptop your is better which is better for gaming no hitting for playing games thanks very much good bless you
Can you try out the Dell G7 17 7700
Didn't know cheap and razer could be in the same sentence 🤔
Heyy... great review!!
I'm thinking of buying this laptop but I'm hearing from different reviews that this pc has a BSOD problem and it doesn't use its GPU at all in terms of 3d rendering and vfx editing
I'm an graphics designer and video editor and the prices are still pretty high in my country(around $800)
Pls has this issue been resolved or should I just get a dell xps 15 2018 model instead
I wouldn't want to spend $800 on a laptop and have it crashing on me
I'll appreciate you're response thanks!!
I have the Razer Blade 2018 (Base Model) since 2019 and never had the BSOD issue, now I'm running Windows 11 with no problem at all. You should go with the Razer, because you will have better graphics card (gtx 1060 instead of 1050), so you can also play games...
Try to get a good deal on a MSI used gaming pc or laptop I dont think you guys cover msi much
Gotta say one thing i bought a laptop that costs 750 dollars and is like 5% better than this
can i buy it?
how many fps on assetto corsa?
WE 🎉 NEED 🎉 A PREBUILT🎉 THAT🎉 IS🎉 UNDER 🎉 400🎉🎉🎉
Such a nice laptop honestly
I have a question, my laptop is a MacBook Pro from 2019 I got it for $650 but still I get low fps like 30-40 per game. Is there any thing I can do to fix this ?
Macbooks aren't good for gaming
You gys form Australia???
80 fps isnt much but for the price its good
