Razer Blade Stealth

[ChaseB]

After Linus's video of the Stealth, I bought the $1500 version. I am notcing some issues and need help tho.

 

Where can I find CPU Temps. This thing is hot.

Where can  I find Fan RPM's. This thing is loud.

And the battery. Advertised at 8 hrs. It was charged at 65%. It only read out 2 hours. 

 

Can someone fix these issues.

That depends is returning it an option? 

 

The Blade is built poorly and thermal throttles.

those are common issues with Razer computer, you can try RMA.

cant help you. those are just normal issues with it. its a garbarge piece of trash that should be returned if you can and RMAed until you get a decent one if the return period is over.

Just last week I opened up my Razer Blade Stealth (i7-7500u) and replaced the thermal paste with Arctic Cooling MX-4.

I also put on some adhesive thermal padding on-top of many of the memory chips and other chips on the motherboard, as well as on the metal plate on top of the CPU and heatpipe of the cooling system (so they would be in contact with the aluminum base of the laptop).

 

Before I did this I would get up to 96C on the CPU while doing an Intel Extreme Tuning Utility CPU stress test, and get that high while running games or even sometimes copying files.

Now I am topping out at 69C even while running the stress test. Made a huge difference.

 

If you don't want to void your warranty:

Right click on the battery icon in the bottom right of the desktop

Click Power Options

Click "change plan settings" On whatever plan you are going to use all the time

Click "Change advanced power settings"

Scroll down and click on "Processor power management"

Go to "Maximum processor state", and change both of the values to 90%. Lower on the "On battery" option if you want longer battery life.

 

I'm not sure what your issues with battery life are coming from, but this should help. This Kaby Lake RBS has been a lot better than the i7-6500u model when it comes to battery for me.
