The Razer laptop GPU isn't working properly.
You're considering buying a Razer Blade 14 for $600. It comes with an RTX 3070, but your friend claims it doesn't work. While the 3070 appears in Device Manager under display adapters, it's not showing up in Task Manager. This seems like a common issue—checking both sources can help. Seeing others report similar problems on the Razer forum suggests it might be worth investigating further before purchasing.
Back then, graphics cards weren’t listed in Task Manager at all. The ability came later when drivers were updated. It seems the Nvidia 600 series might have been the first to support this, though it’s more likely a driver issue rather than a hardware problem.
