Razer Blade 18 2025 ips glow/bleed

Hi,

Who has this laptop, can you post an image with a black image on the display to see how much ips glow/bleed is acceptable for this to have? I'm curios since in Jarrod's review basically has none, but I don't know which iso and settings used for camera since in other reviews there can be seen some.

Thanks

120Hz and up display image while 60Hz is blank screen.

Hi,

I have an external 4K 160Hz display hooked as secondary display to my rtx 5090 laptop using hmdi cable.

If I select 50/60Hz I get a black screen no image, even tho the monitor doesn't go to stand by it stays on, while all other refresh rates works as it should 25/30/100/120/144/160Hz, they display image.

I've connected the 4k/160hz display to a gtx 1070 mobile laptop and it works as it should at 60Hz. Also I've connected another display (2k 60hz) to rtx 5090 and also works as it should at 60Hz.

Why only 4k/160hz at 50/60Hz is not working with rtx 5090?

Thanks

Vrr settings and threshold

Hi,

I have a laptop with Optimus enabled igpu+dgpu.

  1. How do I enable Gsync because in desktop the display being on igpu I don't see the screen listed in gsync window in Nvidia control panel. If I enable gsync it will be automatically applied to display when it switch to dgpu?

  2. I've switched to dgpu only just to check the vrr thresholds and they are as following. Using maximum 240hz it's between 103-240hz, using 120Hz it's between 51-120Hz, using 60Hz it's between 25-60Hz.

So for using Gsync properly should I set the display to 120Hz to be in the 51-120Hz zone, because I don't think I will reach 100fps to be in 240Hz vrr zone.

Also those margins where are set, can I change them, because the external display which is 160Hz has fixed zone 49-160Hz.

  1. On dgpu only mode laptop display is listed as gsync capable while external display is listed as gsync compatible. Does this mean that laptop display has that gsync chip?

  2. There is an option "Enable settings for the selected display model" which is available only for external display but not the laptop display. Why is that and what is that setting?

  3. While the laptop display is on igpu in advanced display settings vrr is listed as supported, while on dgpu says supported and displays also the vrr range, but the external display being by default in dgpu hdmi says it's not supported until I enable gsync and also display vrr range. Is this how it should behave? Then why laptop display being on igpu says it's supported without gsync active in Nvidia control panel, or is it enabled by default without being enabled in Nvidia control panel?

Thanks

Which sRGB mode on Asus monitor?

Hi, on Asus monitor I have one sRgb option in Game Visuals menu and also another sRgb option in Display Color menu.

  1. What is the difference between the two?

  2. When to use one and one another? Or what is the best option for srgb (color menu srgb with game visuals on racing mode for low latency?)

  3. Also do I need to load in Windows Color management srgb color profile? But if I let Wide Gammut and load only the ICC srgb profile?

Thanks

Razer Blade 18 2025 how to setup

Hi, I've just got a Razer Blade 18 2025 and I have a few question about how to setup.

  1. The green led indicator only flashes green during boot and after that is going off while in Windows. Is this how it should behave or should stay lit?

  2. The laptop comes with Win 11 Home but I would like to fresh install Win 11 Pro. I've backed-up colors folder from pool/drivers with the blade.icm profile, also the color folder from synapse folder. What else should I backup before a complete erase?

  3. How do I restore color profile? Through Windows Color management by loading it in there or by Synapse? I read on Razer website 2 options for laptop before and after 2023, but if I recover through Window Color Management will it appear in Synapse as well?

  4. I would completely erase the primary ssd, including the recovery partition. Will I be able to restore it if I want at a later time with Razer Online Recovery Disk?

  5. I would like the first ssd which is 2Tb to partition it in 2 partitions 1 GB each. What's the correct procedure during Windows install? What is the correct order of partitions system/msr/primary/recovery/primary or system/msr/primary/primary/recovery?

  6. What other steps are needed for this Razer laptop?

Thank you

Hi,

I just had a Strix Scar 18 2025 with RTX 5090 returned and got my money back, and I don't know if shall I go and buy another.

The issue I had is that after 2 weeks suddenly crashed and couldn't install Windows 11 anymore. When it was reaching the gui installer to select the country all kind of errors like "system thread exception not handled" or "page fault in non paged area" or "kmode exception not handled" or "reference by pointer" or "system service exception" and so on, never being able to finish the installer.

While in service I read all kind of posts from bad liquid metal from the factory to dgpu issues.

I know that usually people with issues posts about this and there are some posts about issues, I would like to know some feedback who have it working for some time with no issues or what other issues.

Shall I try one more or there are more generalized issues with this model? Cause the other option would be Razer Blade 18, because I can't stand the glossy screen of Legion 9.

Thanks

Hi

I'm looking to buy this laptop Razer Blade 18 2025 with RTX 5090 and I've read a lot of issues regarding the battery swollen and track pad especially.

I know that mostly people who have issue are most likely to post about that specific issue, but there were several reports, and I will like to know if there are also people who have this laptop and it's ok, doesn't have the issues above or what other issues are there and how is the experience with this model?

Thanks
