The Hyperboost setting can be found under the PERFORMANCE tab in Razer Synapse.
Note: The Performance Mode settings in Razer Synapse for the Laptop Cooling Pad will align with the settings selected for your Razer Blade.
What models are supported by Hyperboost?
The Razer Blade 16” (2023), Razer Blade 16” (2024), and Razer Blade 16” (2025) are the models currently supported. Support for other models will be announced at a later date.
Can I custom overclock my Razer Blade?
Yes, you can overclock your Razer Blade via Razer Synapse 3. However, ensure your Razer Blade model supports this feature and its Razer Synapse is up-to-date. If your device does not support this feature, do not overclock your CPU, GPU, or RAM. There is an associated risk of damage to crucial components if unauthorized changes are made, which will result in voiding the manufacturer’s warranty.
See the answers below for more details:
Can I use a lower-watt power adapter on my Razer Blade?
Use the power adapter that came with your Razer Blade 16” (2024) to get the highest performance while your Razer Blade is running under heavy load. The Razer Blade 16 RTX 4070 models are shipped with a 280 W power adapter and the 4080 and 4090 models are shipped with a 330 W power adapter.

Yes. However, the Razer Blade is designed for compatibility with the as-shipped OS. Should you want to install or modify the OS, format the boot drive first then install your OS. Razer Warranty and Support is only available for the as-shipped OS.
