    There doesn't appear to be a lot of love on this forum for the Razer Blade base but with the recent amazon price drop on the blade I picked one up.

    Here is a review in case anyone else is on the fence:


    I was lucky enough to get the LG panel which was the biggest reason I hadn't bought the base model before (the BOE has terrible PWM which gives me headaches). But with Amazons amazing returns I gave it it a try.

    I am going to do some gameplay videos and a video detailing undervolting to get the best out of the system.

    If anyone wants to ask anything fire away.

    Thank you mate, only just started so trying to get the formula right.

    Been so impressed with the base model that I wish I had bought it sooner!

    Hope you have a good third-party extended warranty to go with it because you do not want to deal with Razer support, especially in Europe.

    No I haven’t! I bought from amazon so they will help for the first year then I am on my own!
    To be fair if I get a problem I will fix it myself after that year rather than pay for extended warranty

    Nice review. Great price for the laptop. If I don’t have Blade 15 gtx1070mq I’d get it 5 over 2020 or any blade models that ever exist, here on Amazon de was also €1099 was like a day or two out of stock, man Blade 15 new on that price is no brain. About review It’ll be great if you can show gaming benchmarks and temperatures in upcoming videos.
