Overheating on 2024 Razer Blade 16 Part 2

what helped me before with a blade 16 was undervolting with throttlestop and repasting with ptm7950. but after two failures, honestly you might want to cut your losses. the ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 runs way cooler with its vapor chamber. the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i also has much better thermal management

Looking for powerful laptop capabilities of 3d modelling and rendering

Reason not to get 2025 model?

I just received the 2025 model from Best Buy about 5 days ago. I got that model because of the price drop. I returned to the site and there was a price match button.
