NEVER EVER upgrade to Synapse 4

I have a Razer theme rig. Tomahawk mini ITX with the Hanbo AIO cooler , V3 mini black widow. Basilek V3, firefly V2 , V2 base station…literally all my accessories are razer so I’m kinda worried if I update I’ll lose a lot of features especially my AIO cooler info and what not.

My OCD is destroyed and my day is ruined

I have a BlackWidow Elite and Basilisk V3, neither of them stores lighting profiles and it's evident until Windows boots up and Synapse launches as they color cycle until it happens. The rest of the settings are stored like you said.

Synapse 4 is the worst piece of software ever created to control peripherals

Totally agreed. Even my lighting profile DOES NOT work after migrating over. Even Synapse 3 is bad too even simple lighting profile does not work 100% of the time !Sometimes I have to re-connect my USB cable ( at least once or twice per week) on my PC and then my profile works, if not it will just r

February Technical Support Sticky

Have a BlackWidow v3 that I've had for 1.5 years using a Mac. The Synapse app never worked great but my keys were all functional and recognized by my computer so I was happy. Fast forward to now, was away for a month and no computer updates I'm aware of but all of a sudden the entire top row of keys

Apex Pro, Aerox 5, Arctis Nova 7, and QcK heavy xxl 😎

Personally I had a ton of problems with the wireless connectivity. I tried the Razer - BlackWidow V4 wireless and the Basilisk v3 wireless and they constantly wouldn't connect or wake my computer. The keyboard would also just randomly disconnect mid sesh and require and on/off toggle to work again.

Thank you for the insight! I currently use a Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed which essentially has everything I want. I am interested in moving away from it though because after less than two years of pretty heavy use the keys have started double hitting very frequently. I’m a massive noob when
