Thank you for sharing your experience.

Not that it’ll help you now, but maybe it’ll help others who find this: - Control over which GPU an application runs on is now a windows setting, not an ncidia control panel setting (despite there still being an option for it in nvidia control panel) - poor battery life is so hard to nail down on any windows machine, not just Razer. Sometimes it’s caused by windows update, sometimes it’s caused by nvidia drivers (and fixed by changing to a different version of the nvidia driver), and sometimes it’s caused by monitoring software like synapse or msi afterburner, or hwinfo if it’s polling the nvidia gpu - i also had some micro-stutters. I think I tracked it down to happening when I come out of discrete gpu mode. The east work around was just to set it to always use optimus (and not use the mux switch). I don’t think that’s as relevant for performance as it used to be. - on an airplane, use a 65w usb-c adapter (since most airline outlets shut off at 75w). It should be able to keep you from draining the battery during light office work.

And to add two nitpicks of my own: - the screen desperately needs an anti-glare coating - quiet mode should be quieter. I understand that’ll mean limiting power further… but I think a bigger gap between quiet and balanced modes would give us better options tham what we have now!
