    So I just got my Razer Blade today! I am loving it so far!
    I have no issues with it what so ever. I have examined it for dead pixels, keyboard is fully functional, all ports are functional, and idle temps hover right around 40c. I love everything about this laptop! No regrets!
    (Display is fine with me, coming from an Alienware M14x R2 with a 1600x900 glossy)

    I currently have my Razer Blade hooked up to an Asus 24" 1920x1200 IPS Monitor that I ordered with the Blade. Loving it! At first I could not get it to go on the 1920x1200 resolution, but that was because both displays were on. Once I set it to only use the secondary, it automatically switched to the full resolution. It looks amazing! I'm not sure how it is going to work out to game on, but it is a 2ms (GTG) display. So I will see I guess. My main game is League of Legends which isn't very demanding, so I think I may be alright! (I don't own a desktop, so I figured this would give me the best of both worlds, which it is so far)

    So I am just looking for any info that I may need to know about the Blade?

    Also, one thing that is kind of a let down is that from all other reviews I noticed that the Blade "usually" comes with a Samsung mSata SSD. Mine, however did not. It came with a "LITEONIT LMT-256M6M". Whatever that is... I have attached a Crystal Disk Benchmark for comparison.

    Liteon is basically Plextor, they're good, shouldn't be a lot different than the Samsung.


    "Any info about the Blade" is rather vague, head over to dedicated section in this forum for Razer 14.

    Very interesting, according to Device manager (in my RBP) I have the Samsung MZMTD512HAGL-00000, according to the Samsung Magician its the same however when the Magician starts it tells me it is not a Samsung drive therefore some options are not available. Upon further inspection most options are actually not available. The software page at Samsung says that the Magician works with all Samsung SSD's.
