Razer Blade 15 Advanced (2020) Repair

Laptop Repair London

If your Razer Blade 15 Advanced (2020) has a broken screen, will not charge, runs hot or will not start, we can diagnose and repair it at our Bermondsey workshop. It is a 15.6-inch gaming laptop from 2020, identified by model number RZ09-0330. Both the drive and, on most configurations, the memory can be upgraded, which makes it a good candidate for a refresh.

Repairs we carry out on the Razer Blade 15 Advanced

Screen replacement

We replace the 15.6-inch panel with one that matches the original resolution and refresh rate. A cheaper 60Hz panel will physically fit many gaming laptops, and we do not fit one unless you ask for it.

Price confirmed before work starts

Overheating and fan repair

We strip the cooling system, clean the fans and heatsink fins and renew the thermal compound and pads. We check temperatures under load afterwards.

SSD and storage upgrade

The Razer Blade 15 Advanced takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.

Price confirmed before work starts

Memory upgrade

Most configurations of the Razer Blade 15 Advanced have SODIMM memory slots, so memory can be increased. We check what is fitted and the maximum the board supports.

Graphics repair

The graphics chip is soldered to the board. Artefacts, crashes under load and a black screen with the fans running are diagnosed to the chip, its memory or its power stage, and repaired at board level where it is economical.

Windows repair and reinstall

The Razer Blade 15 Advanced meets Microsoft’s Windows 11 requirements in most configurations. We upgrade from Windows 10, which reached end of support in October 2025, or reinstall Windows 11 cleanly with your files kept.

Battery replacement

A new internal battery is fitted and tested through a full charge and discharge. A battery of this age that swells should be replaced before it damages the trackpad or casing.

Price confirmed before work starts

Charging port and power repair

Depending on the configuration this charges through a round socket, USB-C or both. We test the adapter, the port and the charging circuit to find which has failed.

We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the Razer Blade 15 Advanced, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.

What we see on the bench

  • Battery swelling is the Razer Blade fault we see most. It lifts the base or trackpad, and the laptop should not be used on charge until it is replaced.
  • Thermal servicing matters on these thin, high-power machines.
  • The model number beginning RZ09 on the base identifies the exact year and version.

Data recovery from the Razer Blade 15 Advanced

The SSD in the Razer Blade 15 Advanced can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.

Questions

Can the SSD or memory in the Razer Blade 15 Advanced be upgraded?

The SSD can be replaced with a larger M.2 drive. Memory is in slots on most configurations and can be increased.

My Razer Blade 15 Advanced will not turn on. Is my data lost?

Usually not. The drive is separate from the fault in most cases, and we can remove it and copy your files even if the machine itself is not worth repairing.

Why does my Razer Blade 15 Advanced overheat or slow down in games?

Usually dust in the heatsinks and thermal compound that has dried out. A thermal service fixes it in most cases. If temperatures are normal and it still slows down, we test the graphics chip and power delivery.

How much does a Razer Blade 15 Advanced screen replacement cost?

Price confirmed before work starts. The exact figure depends on the part your machine needs, and we confirm it before any work starts.
