PERFORMANCE – TEMPERATURES AND NOISE
When buying a thin gaming laptop, you must accept some draw backs. Mainly heat and noise. To see how hot and noisy the Razer Blade 15 Base Edition is when being pushed I played a bunch of games and both measured the noise as well as recorded the temperatures on the GPU and the CPU.
Setting | CPU (Max) | GPU (Max) | Noise | Other |
3DMark Stress test | ||||
Balanced | ~ 74 C | ~70 C | 44 dBA | |
Assasins Creed Valhalla (Balanced) | ||||
Balanced | ~95 C | ~ 77 C | 49.8 dBA | Max CPU temp just for a few seconds. Otherwise around 85 C |
Gaming | ~98 C | ~80 C | 51.5 dBA | Max CPU temp just for a few seconds. Otherwise around 85 C |
Battlefield V, 1440p Medium | ||||
Gaming | ~75 C | ~81 C | ||
Outriders (1440p, DLSS Quality, Ultra High) | ||||
Gaming | ~95 C | ~~ 74 C | Max CPU temp just for a few seconds. Otherwise around 83 C | |
Overall I think the Razer laptop performs well. Yes, a few times I noticed the CPU reaching high temperatures but in all cases it was just for a few seconds and the average temperature was lower. So while 95-96C sounds high the actual average temperature seemed to be closer to 83 – 88 C.
As for the noise you of course can hear the fans but at least it is not an annoying sound and just a regular whooshing sound.
