    Mostly CPU and RAM (overclocked) based stuff - why would having Synapse turned off effect these numbers at all?

    Could we believe that having Synpase uninstalled completely is the best performance for these laptop?

    Synapse uses extra CPU cycles and imposes some sort of CPU control aspect.. My Blade uses a constant 2% from Synapse running. I value fan control a lot, so unfortunately I have to stick to using Synapse and I have a few Razer periphs I need to control with it.

    There must be someone out there smarter than me who can figure out how to control the fans and mouse DPI without Synapse installed?

    Peripherals RGB is totally irrevelant to me and the CPU hacks/tweaks on the other forum posts sort out the 35/45w dilemma.

    I had an older Deathadder Black edition some time ago, and only way to set DPI was with their software. A neat trick back then was to set the DPI and all your settings, save them, reboot and uninstall the software. That way the mouse would keep the settings without the terrible software.
