Just got my Pro a few hours ago and so far Liking it a lot. Fan noise is not bad, a little less than my Aero 17.
Temps running firestrike CPU hits 97 GPU 74 this is on a flat surface and for sure by the weekend I will repaste.
The 120hz 4k screen is candy to my eyes! still loading stuff, actually during this firestrike I am installing office so maybe lowered the score some?
Anyway here is a screenshot and will post back after some more playing.

Maybe that’ll boost cpu spike temperature installing thing background, especially on last two scenes cpu stress test.
Damn that score like on the top 3DMarkOn this configs.

@Terreos Bro, found you with your new toys
How high is the gpu tdp btw? -
Yeah I’m team Eluktronics now. That was just out of the box setting. So I didn’t tweak anything yet.Joikansai likes this. -

This is with no background installs going on. Temps were better high CPU was 92 I will repaste regardless.
And Terreos can have the bragging rights this time.

Don’t worry I’ll be back once I have time to sit down a tweak it. -
I did just UV with XTU -130 and now max temp was 86.

That’s better. Figured that fancy vapor chamber and four fans can do better than that. Looking forward to the repaste numbers. And beat them. . .

Any Idea why I cant use latest Nvidia Driver? Mine is on 442.53 and geforce experience says I have the latest but I do not.

Repasted yesterday, was the easiest system ever to repaste, literally only take out the heat sink screws, no tapes no cables to unplug except power, very pleased with results. I pushed the GPU 165/1000. Also bumped the mem to 64gb hyperx 2933 and 2tb 970 evo.

Repasting on my machine didn’t help at all sadly. Think I would need liquid metal if I wanted to cool it down at all.

Yes probably only LM can keep to like 70ish this intel CPUs, because it’s still 14nm imo , even GS66 new cooling, M15 with idk what they call spaceship cooling?
can’t cool it properly, plus extra cores. I did recently finally repasting on 2018 model since it’s already on 2 years flag, only brings a bit improvement, some demanding titles like long session GTAV, Tomb Raider etc will definitely spike on certain points to 90ish, however average still in 80ish. Pretty similar with default thermal paste only better core to core different, before it was like almost 10 right before repasting. I avoid LM because never did it and pretty coward if it failed the 2K MoBo.

Can someone share RBP17 2080 super max-q's vbios? i think it is 100watt variant like last year's. wanna try flashing this vbios to my 90watt 2080 super max-q in my GS75.

I am definitely considering it still. Figure might as well give this a shot for the first time.
I did tame the beast a bit with a cooling pad. It wasn't much but a few degrees here and there is always welcome. -

Just received my 2020 Razer Blade Pro with the 2080 super max and this is my firestrike score out of the box. I am impressed and I have yet to overclock the GPU or undervolt the CPU.

@Darkhan Did you take any pictures when you opened the computer up? Are there room for more than one M.2 disk or even a regular SSD? I'm thinking of buying the 1080p 300Hz one. Do you think the lack of G-will be a problem when gaming?
-
I did not take any pictures, but its very clean inside, there is an extra m.2 slot open, there is not a 2.5 slot. And I am just guessing but with 300hz I do not think g-sync would make a difference? I say go for it and you can always return it, if unhappy?

Repaste is amazing easy, to the point I would not mind repasting every few months. Noise is tame even under load, I would compare it to my Area 51m. I have not used headphones and been playing games fine without them. I have no investment with Razer to try and sale any of their products but this system I am so happy with, its just about flawless in my book. I tried the new 15 but that one the keyboard got pretty hot and uncomfortable after 30min or so of a session, the 17 does not do this and maybe due to the extra two fans under the track pad?

Thanks for the answers, I'm really tempted to buy this now actually.

Is it possible to flash the vbios from the 2080 super on the Pro to the 15 advanced 2080 super?

is the 17 pro much bigger than the 15 version? I would want the dual nvme so thinking of upgrading my 2019 2070 mercury 15 to the 2020 17 blade pro
-
You can look up the dimensions, but for me it fits in a 15 inch laptop bag and that was a win in my book.

I ended up getting the 17 since it was available at my local microcenter. They also told me not to get the razer protection because it was garbage and their customer service was terrible. I have to agree with the customer service being bad as it took me 1 month trying to register my laptop just so I could pay them money for the accidental coverage for my blade 15.

So looks like another issue trying to register my laptop with razer. They unfortunate could not verify my serial number on this brand new laptop....
-
OK, so I get my new RB17PRO 2020 running. installed my old 970PRO 1TB with in-stock 1TB LITEON and Corsair DDR4-3000 16GB x2. Doing some simple test but the CPU package power is very hard to get over 45W. wired. Also, the RAM only can run at very low 2666Mhz with lame timming.
I think its really a must to do the bios mod, but it is soooo difficult... hope someone can do a mod BIOS . -
-
Just some updates if anyone is interested. I was able to get my razer blade registered but can't get the serial number verified to get protection plan. I would need to contact customer support for that. Also they are looking into getting nvidia driver update to work. I can't update it past what they have installed and the tech support guy basically told me to go to nvidia website and download the correct drivers..... When I told him I already done that he said he couldn't help and needed to escalate. Let's see what happens.

Tried running firestrike and first try got 18k plus but couldn't be validated. Tried again but CPU throttled and hit 99 degrees. i think I need to re-paste later today. lol
