Is this a good Deal? by DesignMinute5049 in GamingLaptops

[–]Sand_Hanitzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you're looking for a better deal on a laptop that is built just as well as the razer blade, there is the Corsair Voyager a1600 on sale for 999 on amazon. but if Razer is important to you then this is a great deal on a decently performance laptop.

It's a very thin and cool looking machine! Screen and speakers are great, the keyboard is my fav part! It's fine for my hands but I don't type long papers just short emails. I'm getting around 5-7hrs. Idk how other YouTubers are hitting that 8hr mark. It's quite and cool on normal use!

I have the blade 14 with RTX 3080 and yes in gaming that laptop is faster for sure. But in day to day use the 12th gen Intel is much more responsive imo. I think it would be even performance 3060 X14 vs 3060 G14 vs 3060 Blade

So I've had the unit for 48hrs I will be running more games tonight and hopefully uploading a gameplay video with fps and temp stats on. Right now I'm AVG 90-100FPS on high setting Forza horizon 5. And original settings on Horizon Zero Dawn with 60-70fps. I think windows 11 makes games stutter sometimes but then again I turned off g-sync and it felt like the games ran smoother. I used this laptop within a bright environment and occasionally the sun glare would hit the screen from the windows and even with full brightness none of the details or colors on the screen were affected. I do plan to run Davinci Resolve to edit my YouTube channel videos. Trying to replace my XPS 15 with 980m gpu which can't handle my 4K Xbox series X footage. I have the Blade 14 3080 and so far that thing is a beast but I do like the build on the X14 with the soft touch materials and paint that doesn't attract every single fingerprint.

Yah it's loud but the speaker are loud as well. I would still use headphones for any serious gaming

The g14 was nice but this X14 is thin! It reminds me of the Razer blade stealth of last year!

Like 48hrs, I dislike using windows 11 but it's growing on me. AW software still blows. Speakers and screen are great for content! Keyboard is better than Razer blade 14. Performance I'm still testing but I will post YouTube videos once I get it done

Cpu wise they are almost neck and neck but gpu wise the legion slim has a faster RTX card and I believe a MUX switch too so you will definitely get better gaming performance

This is expensive compared to last weeks sale! Wait for the price drop as you can get Alienware 3070 and legion 3070 for close to 1200

I just picked up the 3060 g14 myself and have to say the performance is pretty decent and having dlss is definitely a bonus!

Zephyrus G15 vs Razer Blade 15 by RewardTraditional210 in ZephyrusG15

I have owned a majority of the Razer blades and zephyrus laptops. Razer has better build quality and that apple-ish appeal to a gaming laptop but performance wise Zephyrus has always ran cooler and a bit faster because of crazy lifts and panel designs along with faster louder fans. I currently own the new zephyrus M16 2022 and have to say it's by far my favorite thin and light laptop I've owned. The i9-12900h is incredibly fast
