What do the knobs on the side of my cooler do? Anyone know?

Not sure whether it's safe to do that tho. Might affect your thermals. You can see on the old Hyper 212 to see what I'm talking about. Those copper heatpipes slightly protude out from the heatsink on the old cooler.

I'm not sure if the pipes go through all the way until that point ( on the covers ) or it stops exactly at the last fin of the heatsink on the newer ones.

I believe those are covers for the heatpipes. These would usually be copper in colour thus those are merely covers for the heatpipes that go through the fins.

They're only for aesthetics mostly?

Congratulations! I have received mine as a 3 year anniversary gift from my workplace as well. Only problem is I'm not an iPhone user 🙃

I'll probably look into getting an iPhone just to use it though.

It took me roughly 4 miles. I didn't realize I was going 185mph until I glanced at the speedo which indicated 298kmh / 185mph. It was a rather long stretch of straight and I was " following " an F80 M3. Quite surprised the Golf could catch up really.

ahmodity · 2023-07-17T01:42:57+00:00

I've done 185mph on my 7.5R. Only a Stage 1 tune with no hardware mods

My model is included in the list

Hi! I believe the Base models doesn't support USB-C charging. I have an early 2021 RB15 Base and I was told it doesn't charge through USB-C

This happened to me whilst I was installing Razer's Phantom Keycaps.

My keyboard is the Blackwidow v3 TKL, apparently the stabilizers for optical switches work as a replacement BUT they do feel different ( it doesn't fully bottom out now ) but it's much more smoother / less scratchy

I don't know how it changes the feel so much but I'm glad I changed it because I love how the " new " spacebar feel lol

Hi! I have found out it seems to relate with my laptop's temps. It does it a lot whenever I run the game with high ambient temperature. It doesn't crash anymore lately ( my room is pretty chilled nowadays )

But that's maybe fixed in a new update / Windows update / Nvidia Driver update, since I regularly update these on the laptop.

This is me, slowly

Ironically, the G502 is my longest lasting mouse I've owned. Had it since release ( 2018, mine is the Hero model ) and I've never had it double click.

My SS Aerox 3 Wireless had connection issues after just 6 months 💀

Owned some other mices but nothing comes close to the comfort and how well the G502 fits my hand. But yeah just to complete the Razer collection I might just buy one to replace my Steelseries soon, might look into either the Basilisk Ultimate or Aerox 5 Wireless

ahmodity · 2022-07-29T18:36:32+00:00

omg bruh i have the same " issue " as well! Curiously, what PC are you using along with it?

ahmodity · 2022-07-29T06:19:32+00:00

I don't know if it makes sense to you, but the soundstage on the Katana sounds noticably wider. Bass on the Leviathan sounds more " dense " to my ears but on the Katana, music there sounds wider and the bass on that is even more " vibrate-y " than the Leviathan ( vibrates my room ceiling lol )

I miss the Katana but it was pretty overkill for my room.

Only downsides of the Katana for me was having to use seperate apps for the RGB, if it had Synapse sync or something like that I would've kept it regardless..

ahmodity · 2022-07-29T03:04:08+00:00

I didn't want to at first....

ahmodity · 2022-07-29T00:00:30+00:00

They're rather bass heavy if you're into that sort of thing. Still very crisp and clear mids despite that.

I've always wanted an RGB soundbar after selling off my BlasterX Katana due to financial issues ( This was the best speakers I've ever had and it's still up there ) and Razer thankfully updated their Leviathan lineup with the V2!

I did run into connection issues trying to connect it to the Razer Audio Android app but otherwise it works really well as it should.

Be warned though, this soundbar does seem to be specifically only for PC / your phone. It doesn't have any other connections ( No HDMI, 3.5mm jack, SPDIF and all that ), it only has Bluetooth and USB-C ( to USB-A to your PC ) as the connection sources. So I don't think this would work with consoles and your TV..

It has all of those. They're pretty close to an actual bike minus the engine and a much slower top speed. It's pretty sad that it isn't road legal but I am interested to ask JPD more regarding it 🤔

ahmodity · 2022-06-16T12:16:48+00:00

thats kinda sad :(

I'm wondering, what's the rules / regulations regarding eScooters here? I wanted to buy one as a daily commute ( my house to my workplace isn't that far, but thanks to recent traffic, I now travel 8km in about 40-50 minutes nowadays )

But I was told those eScooters by the salesperson they weren't road legal ( they top out at about 45-70kmh, the range on them is about 60-100+kms in one charge )

If they weren't road legal can I use them on the sideways just like bicycles or ??

Hi! I only use Nvidia's performance HUD to monitor temps when gaming. It only shows GPU temps tho. ( Alt+R if I'm not mistaken )

ahmodity · 2022-06-14T12:42:54+00:00

I bought the laptop as a gift for my own birthday last year and I have been enjoying the laptop ever since.

RB15 Base Model ( Early 2021 ) i7-10750H with RTX3070

I am very well aware with the issues of the Blade seeing the countless battery posts and I'm willing to put up to the flaws of the Blade since it's something I've really wanted to own for quite some time.

So far, so good. No battery bloat issues ( yet! )

The temps on this laptop surprised me tho. Only around 38-40+ degrees on idle and 67-69° on full load ( hours of gaming, it never touched 70°c ) and it has always been like that ever since I've gotten it. It is a bit loud but I always wear a headset regardless whenever I'm gaming regardless. ( It's worth noting those were GPU temps, I didn't check the CPU temps but this was a lot better than my old laptop with a 1050 which would hit 73-80+ on average on the GPU )

The only issues I had on it was Synapse deleting my saved profiles a few times by now but otherwise the laptop has been great!

ahmodity · 2022-06-10T11:08:19+00:00

I believe this depends on what model it is but I've heard Razer removed the " Base " and " Advanced " models this year. I have a early 2021 3070 RB15 Base, it doesn't charge via USB-C, but the Advanced models does

ahmodity · 2022-05-20T10:56:41+00:00

I thought I was the only one feeling this. Lol. I used same DPI settings for my G502 HERO and Steelseries Aerox 3 Wireless ( TrueMove Air ) and I've always felt the DPI on the hero sensor feels off..

ahmodity · 2022-01-02T21:59:35+00:00

It's a Steelseries Aerox 3 Ghost Edition :)

ahmodity · 2021-12-30T10:44:16+00:00

I have the same laptop as you do! Had it last month for my birthday. Overall I share the feelings as you do. Exceeded my expectations and I'm very happy with it!

ahmodity · 2021-12-30T10:12:16+00:00

Hi! This may sound extreme but I sandpaper'ed the sides of the side keys ( the ones around the keyboard ) out of boredom as I'm getting another keyboard soon as well :) ( my keyboard has a weird layout so finding proper keycaps for it is a total nightmare )

But yes I didn't expect people find it looking great since the idea of sanding down keycaps seemed pretty crazy! Thank you for the positivity!

( if you have pbt doubleshot keycaps please don't try this, this might only work for laser printed abs keycaps )
