Keeping a note -based computer when playing games can not only improve its effectiveness, but also improve its effectiveness. It can also extend the service life of its components and help avoid Battery expansionWith age, this pain becomes more common. Razer said the price is $ 150 Note computer cooling pad Applicable to any size laptop, the CPU and GPU temperature can be reduced by up to 18%. (Of course, it also has an RGB bar.)
With some Razer game laptop, it can go further. When the cooling pad is connected through USB 2023 Or 2024 Razer Blade 16, a name is called Super Aid Automatically adjust the fan speed and cooling mode, so that the laptop computers allocate up to 20 watts of power for the CPU and GPU respectively. (Razer will introduce Hyperboost into more models in the next few months.)
In the past few weeks, whether it is the Hyperboost update or after the update, I have used the Razer laptop heat sink pad. Although it is not as impressive as Razer claims, I do notice that the 1080P performance in the game is significantly improved, and these properties were previously hindered by insufficient CPU power.
I use the top 2024 Razer Blade 16 and Intel Core i9-14900HX CPU with NVIDIA RTX 4090 2024 ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 (AMD version)Essence You can use the side button to circulate the preset fan speed and the RGB light configuration, but the fine control requires the installation of Razer Synapse. Even if the price is not high, this may be an obstacle for some people.
Let’s solve the elephant in the room first: Razer’s cooling pad LoudEssence When the 140mm fan rotates the whole hole, I measured 62 decibels Just next to the laptop, about 56 to 58 decibels, I think this is a realistic game location. (The bottom noise of my apartment is about 40 decibels.) This is not deafening, but the constant volume and mechanical sound of the fan will make people distract -it sounds like a vacuum cleaner, enough to scare my cat. In order to compare it, I used the Turbo power setting file to test the output of the built -in fan on the two laptop by less than 50 decibels.
Razer is committed to creating a laptop -type computer heat sink suitable for any device, which also means that its size must be very large. It not only occupies more desktop space than laptop computers, but also requires external power supply, and uses a bulky adapter to occupy the plug next to the power board. It is equipped with three different top plates that can be adsorbed on the mat by magnetic. The board for 14 to 16 -inch brush -type computers and panels for 18 -inch brush -type computers use memory foam bars between the air inlets of the fan room and the bottom of the laptop. The third type is completely flat for a fanless or ventilated device like MacBook Air. There are three USB-A 2.0 ports on the back, which can be easily accessed regardless of the size of the top laptop.
Hyperboost can play a good thing, at least in some cases. In his comments on Razer Blade 16 in 2024Youtuber Jarrod’stech pointed out that it has not performed well with the 2023 model under 1080P. This is because, under the preset situation, they allocate more total power to the GPU, but at lower resolution, most games will be hindered by the CPU.
Hyperboost surpasses this. With the strong performance of the CPU, 2024 Blade 16 can output 123 frames per second Cyberpunk 2077 Compared with the 90FPS that I measured without Hyperboost, all settings reached 1080P when the maximum (except for light tracking). Ancient tomb Similar: Under the maximum setting of 1080P, I measured the 204 FPS when I enabled Hyperboost and measuring 185 FPS when disabled it.
Once you leave 1080P, the advantage disappears
Once you leave 1080P, the advantage disappears; the GPU becomes a restricted factor, and injecting more power into it will bring revenue decrease. Under Blade 16’s native 1600P resolution (and higher, if you use external display), I measured about the same frame rate when using or not using Hyperboost, giving or reducing one or two frames. The temperature is still significantly low. In the torture test, the power-consuming Intel Core i9-14900HX remained below 90 degrees Celsius, and the RTX 4090 remained below 70 degrees Celsius. However, Blade 16 in 2024 already had an excellent cooling system due to its thickness. Hot Ji flow is never a problem.
Whether there is Synapse or not, Razer’s laptop heat sink can also cool the non -Razer game laptop. It prevented AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor in ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 During the benchmark test, it usually reaches the upper limit of 95 degrees Celsius quickly. Even the strips above the keyboard (usually reached 115 degrees of Fahrenheit), can reach a relatively gentle 90 degrees in a full load.
Unfortunately, even after using the hot space to overclock the CPU and GPU, I cannot get statistically significant statistical frame rate improvements in the game or comprehensive test on the ROG Zephyrus G16.
This is the biggest problem for the Razer laptop cooling pad. It does promote air, but it is limited to the Razer Blade 16 compatible with Hyperboost ——— Very A small part of the entire game population-will see the difference in efficiency, even so, only appears in the restricted game of the CPU.
Of course, Hyperboost may have a greater impact on other Razer notebook computers, such as Razer more slim Blade 16 posted on CES On the same day, it released Hyperboost. The thickness of the new Blade is equivalent to the ROG Zephyrus G16, and the latter uses strict power and temperature limit to control the calories in its slim shell. Perhaps the new Blade 16 can control the calories well, just like the model in 2024, but maybe the time is not completely coincidental.
Finally, as Hongdi.com users It has been pointed out that the cooling pads that are priced at $ 150 in Razer have many things in common with similar cooling brackets of other companies. Leno or IELTS: All external power supply is required, using a speed -adjustable 140mm fan, RGB and USB hub, and using memory bubbles to seal laptop, but the cost of Llano and IETS cooler is close to $ 100. Many of them even have adjustable tilt, which is lacking in Razer’s radiator pad. We have not tested them yet, but unless you have a compatible Razer Blade or real If you hope that the RGB light on the notes on the laptop is synchronized with Chroma, then more basic lights can also play the same role, just spend less than $ 50.
