@@aaronpingol1566 I think you should bring these questions to another Jarrod video and try to throw them out within the first few hours of the video being uploaded or put it into a thread where alot of people have commented

Pro tip for those who are new to Lenovo laptops! If your laptop is plugged in most of the time, Lenovo has a function in their Vantage software called "Conservation Mode", which helps limit the battery charge to 60% when you're plugged in. This helps preserve your battery's health. My Legion 5 is now 3 months old and only has gone through 15 charge cycles!
@@bipbop3121 I would love it if Lenovo had the option to go for a higher percentage, though I’m sure they’ve done their research before coming to the decision of setting it to 60 by default.
Tip for those of you planning on doing this (which is well worth it!): Take your time when prying the laptop open. There are tiny clips on the inside which are pretty fragile and I snapped one when opening. Not a huge deal, but still best to be careful.
additional recommendation: pry the sides and front first, the back section are hooked onto the ports and comes off more easily once the other 3 sides are loose
PS: It is recommended to disconnect Power Battery (not cmos battery) before doing anything on the laptop's internal. You do not want to accidentally turn on the laptop while installing devices.
You can accidentally touch your screwdriver on the board and blow important stuff if you don't disconnect the battery. Saw this happen to a friend when he was upgrading his laptop.
I heard that this laptop has an option to disable the battery in bios. So would that be the best option? So that you don't need to disconnect the battery and risk accidentally damaging the cables or whatever if you are unexperienced.
no matter what it is... car, motorcycle, rv, computer, gaming console, PC, fridge, microwave...doesn't matter. As a safety precaution for both yourself and the devices you are working on always disconnect from the power source. I'm sure people are gonna comment and say I don't know what I'm talking about but please just remember this no matter what it is you are tinkering with!
You are the best laptop reviewer of all times. Your content is so rich, organised, and useful. I hope your channel becomes as giant as they get, because you absolutely deserve it for the amount of quality work you push. A massive thank you.
4:56 - the longer cable version is from the 17" Legion 5. It will fit into 15" version, as seen in your video. But the shorter cable 15" version will NOT fit into the 17" version, be noted.
Just a note to people upgrading brand new Legion 5s. the newer ones (like the one I purchased) have different motherboards installed meaning a 2.5inch SSD or HDD can't be installed into it, an M.2 SSD can still be installed in the same way. Another thing to watch out for is the RAM, the motherboard in the newer ones isn't XMP based meaning XMP ram (what's commonly sold) won't work at full speed.
Your videos have been so insanely helpful to me. I recently upgraded my setup, and I have been out of the gaming world for over 15 years.. In that time, things have changed a LOT, and I had no idea how user friendly it is to customize, overclock, and otherwise set up a computer to truly take advantage of its hardware. Your videos along with a few other UA-camrs have given me a crash course in getting the most out of my PC, and it has exponentially improved my experience. Thanks for doing what you do!

Before changing any hardware, you need to remove the battery cable, so the laptop stays without power. Besides that, very instructive video. Like it every second of it.
@@masterrahool4774 You could damage your components or yourself if you start up your laptop on accident during the upgrade, the other thing you could do is to disable the battery in the bios before opening your laptop.
@@JarrodsTech Try to work on your pronunciation buddy, I think that's what missing you! Verbal communication is key, that being said the quality of your videos is what makes me come back. Looking forward to seeing you grow ;)
You might be able to use the M.2 drive as well as a 2.5 inch SATA SSD at the same time if you take apart the 2.5 inch SSD by removing it's plastic housing. Inside that there's a high chance you'll have a small circuit board which is the SSD. After that you might even be able to have all three options, larger battery, SATA SSD, M.2 SSD(As long as that M.2 isn't the same port though, shouldn't be if the M.2 is NVME).
I bought the Legion 5 based on JT's recommendation. I've been super happy with it and I've just now upgraded it using this video. This dude is the certified goat in the gaming laptop field. Clear, relevant information packaged in great videos. Thanks!
Thanks for including the 80 Wh battery upgrade section! The Legion really became the best overall gaming laptop of 2020 with these upgrades. Would've been nice to see if RAM with better timings and tuning further improved the experience.
Included RAM is CL22. There is no XMP supported on Legion 5, and better RAM is only CL20. The performance difference is really small, like 1-2 fps, if exists at all. CL20 HyperX Impact RAM kit is about 150-180$, totally not worth it, IMO.
@@mrgndx I see 3200 cl 16 modules gskill ripjaws sodimms that are 1.2v on newegg though. The absolute fastest sodimms are 3600 cl 16 and they are expensive as well as higher voltage at 1.35v.
@@JarrodsTech I wana buy 80wh laptop Can anyone help me I couldn't find it Or the model don't exist at all..? Spec req : 4800h 1660ti 144hz 300nits 80wh
That 80wh battery upgrade is absolutely impressive! I thought that it would be a little better than the Omen 15, but I didn't expect that huge of a battery lfie increase.
Sometimes in this life you find the exact video you were looking for and this is one of those rare examples. I love this laptop. Best bang for buck ever. Also this channel is great. Subbed.
thanks a lot man, really helped me with choosing the legion 5 1660ti over the 2060 with your comparison video. now with the 100 bucks saved im going to upgrade the battery and boom here you are again helping me out.. appreciate you brother jarrod!
The inner design and expandability look quite good together with massive heat pipes. It reminds me of an old laptop from Dell that my cousin bought many years ago.
Love how I found this video 3 days after putting in my 2.5 ssd. First time I've taken apart a computer and did any kind of installs. It went great, but fantastic content nonetheless!
You need to disconnect the battery before ripping metal shields off the motherboard, because you can short the powered rails and the laptop would be dead. Despite that good and short video showing on what needs to be done to upgrade these things :)
@@xibeon Disconnecting the battery is ALWAYS the first thing you should do when taking apart something. I know you will probably say that nothing's happened to you, and I've never had any issues with it either, but that does not make it safe in the slightest. Also good job responding to a 1 year old comment, really showed em
@@ActualRealKayamariOfficialVEVO Yeah nothing bad happened to any laptop I've ever opened and they were quite a few. I don't even know anyone who somehow damaged any laptop by not disconnecting the battery. Im sure you don't either. The thing with damaging the laptop by not disconnecting the battery is a internet myth. Sure, it can happed to someone somewhere, but same goes with lightning strike or lottery winning.
@@xibeon Just because it's unlikely doesn't mean it's not a risk that should be taken. Disconnecting the battery takes three seconds to do and means the risk (even if it's as low as you think) is put to 0. that's better odds than leaving it connected. Why do you want to keep the battery plugged in in the first place? Also, if I'm working on something that's worth multiple hundred dollars you bet I don't want to take any risks in the slightest about frying it.
Actually, you shouldn't add more memory than you'll need. It actually proves to hinder performance. Using these faster nvme drives really makes more ram unnecessary. Check benchmarks with more vs less RAM online.
My legion 5’s internals did not look like yours, at all. My HDD orientation was flipped, the m.2 drive didn’t have a place for me to screw in, and my battery was fucking massive and ran the whole way across the bottom. Like what the fuck
I like that Lenovo included the four SSD screws even though they are very much standard screws that are likely to come with the SSD as well. And their decision to specially design a piece of plastic to hold them is so smart as well. They could have just gone lazy and put them in the plastic bag with other accessories, which the user is unlikely to remember or even notice. It's details like this that make me approve of a product that much more.
I just wanna say thank you, you're the reason i bought legion 5 before and with your guide i was able to upgrade the storage myself,i always just pay someone to do ut cuz im scared of breaking anything lol but now that I've done it imma do everything myself if i have the tools
Literally just ordered one based on your other GPU reviews (with the rtx 2060) on sale - you seem to have a video for everything I need and no bs. A thankful sub for you!
I just bought a legion 5 yesterday from your reviews, next step was to upgrade ram and memory as it only came with 8gb and 256gb. Thanks a lot for your content!
Also, if you experience micro-stuttering in-game, I suggest to turn off processor boost in power settings. The boost in my example caused thermal throttling (clearly visible in HWINFO64).
I will, I'm just in the process of setting up the new filming space, so for now while getting set up some things are still happening in the older room.
@@JarrodsTech I agree that the wooden table and black background looks better, but the white table gives better contrast especially when you're working with parts and taking things apart. Anyways thx for the video I literally just bought the same model (same specs even) cuz of your videos a week ago. My biggest concern after GPU and Screen refresh rate was thermals. I live in a hot climate so, thermals was a big concern for me, your videos played a huge part in making my decision and buying the legion 5 1660ti Ryzen 7 4800h / 16 gb/ 512 SSD. 😊
You sir, are a legend. Went through all the Lenovo manuals, no help there...this was great. They suck with a 512gb main drive, bumping that to a 2tb M2 and the 2.5 to a 4tb storage. That'll do...for a while. And courtesy of you, I wont bump the RAM or WIFI up now. The battery upgrade looks good, but I reckon the bulk SSD space will prove more useful...Your clip was fast, comprehensive, engaging and informative. Excellent production values there. Thank you.
I did put in a pair of 2tb ssds. No dramas. They are Samsung 970s I think. Partitioned 500gb for OS and programs, 1.5 storage and 2tb game drive. No worries, and blisteringly fast. Love it.
Thankfully paid someone else to do it!! Mind you, tech said it was no drama - and they are paired 970 2tb m2 ssd. Been a long time now, very fast and stable. Only issues are Windows based ones!
Tip: Disconnect the battery first so that you don't destroy your motherboard, because if by chance any screw fell on yhe motherboard it's going to destroy your Lappy. Remember guys better safe than sorry. 🙂🙂
As an owner of this machine, I feel like some important topics were missed here. Upgrading RAM isn't just about capacity. Sometimes it is about performance. What will this machine do with tighter timings? What are the actual limits it will accept? Is there a 3400MT/s or faster kit available that will work? Can the cooling be upgraded? I know in the past, Lenovo has different cooling for different SKUs. I also own the 1660Ti version. Is the 2060 cooling module better? If so, would it be possible to upgrade to the 2060 cooling kit to improve temps? If you can, does that improve performance in any meaningful way?
@@CleverCheetah I was asking as the "upgrade guide" was missing the upgrades that appeared to be worth doing. It is common practice to have different cooling based upon the build. First I ran into that, was with the W520. Upgrading from a dual core to a quad core included a cooling upgrade. Upgrading from the low end to high end GPU involved a cooling upgrade. And you could purchase, and install that upgraded cooler yourself if you wanted to lower temps on parts that weren't maxed out for the platform. I assumed the same would apply to the Legion 5 - given the upgraded parts available. However, that topic was never approached by the author.
@@JarrodsTech (edit this is due to the application not being able to use the ram I had properly, I have 32gb of sodimm ddr4, and the *32 bit* application could only use about 4) Take the following with a grain of salt. And if your playing old titles on high settings, I was playing Microsoft Flight Simulator X (2006) and it crashed and gave an error similar to "Memory Exceeded." when I flew over Newark Liberty International.
Upgrading RAM isn't for higher framerates, it's so when you get a memory leak it doesn't completely crash your computer, and you can run 800 chrome tabs. It's also extremely useful for audio editing as you can run a lot of VSTs simultaneously, on 16GB you would get an instant crash on a complicated track. Also, let's say you build a program that's large like a video game, you may need more than 16GB just to build. Or if you want to rewrite a large Git history. Or if you're a scientist and you want to analyse a large dataset. I got 64GB last feb and since then my computer has never stalled and I am constantly running unity, photoshop, fl studio, resolve, bitbucket, rider, 100 tabs in firefox, thunderbird, filezilla, google sync, playstation and xbox devkit tools. Often streaming on slobs, have excel open in the background, a bunch of copies of ms paint with screenshots open, everything, my music editor, my vpn, steam, avast, parsec. I have never gone above 40GB even during memory leaks. I used to max 24GB all the time.
If you know what you're doing, I strongly recommend changing stock thermal paste for liqud metal (Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut in my case) Temperatures dropped from 98C° to ~75C° on CPU in full load, which is a nice improvement for longevity and performance of your HW.
utterly retarded idea. Liquid metal is a compound which includes galium. it is meant to seal die and shielding. it is not meant to go on the shielding as it will corrode the metal (gallium!). surefire way to kill your hardware. "improvement for longevity" my ass.
The 64gb RAM upgrade might not show much improvement in specific applications, but it will be useful for people managing workloads that require it, like virtual machines and docker along with other machine learning tasks. So its good that this laptop supports 64gb RAM.
It actually doesnt thats the thing…. I contacted lenovo support reps and they said though you can put in up to 64, anything past 16 will not provide much improvement due to the motherboards limits
Does this mean the thermal paste never has to be reapplied on it? my current lenovo ideapad 520 is thermal throttling and I think the reason is that the thermal paste is dried out. If thats not an issue with the legion Ill be even more sold on it then I already am right now
I got this laptop and it's awesome. I have the intel version and i've never had a problem with it. It dosen't overheat or anything like that. But the biggest downside is that it only has 3 modes which sucks, other than that everything else is just perfect.
I have bought the Lenovo Legion 5 17 with Ryzen 7 5800H eight cores and 16 threads, RTX 3060 115+15W TDP, 17,3" 144Hz 1080p, White colored backlit truestrike keyboard, 16Gb DDR4 3200MHz CL22. I got it for 11990 SEK or 1449.19 in USD. And it's a high end beast. I have so far maxed all my games with good fps. Warzone maxed out with RT and DLSS on gives me a constant 100+ fps. Love it!
@@traderbear6518 I will take this time to recommend the legion 7! It has no air filtration, and a sort of mesh instead. It has the same bottom intake system, causing it to vacuum anything under the computer!
Are these suggestions valid on the Legion 5 2021 too? Ram speed is slower too in that model? Wifi card can be upgraded too or has a better one now in this new model? (Talking about the ryzen 5 5600h and rtx 3060 model)
Fantastic informative video with links to all parts! This helped me in upgrading my newly purchased Legion 5 with i7 10th gen/Nvidia RTX 2060/16GB Ram/ 256 m.2 NVME & 1TB SSD Hard Drives/240hz Screen/500nits brightness ... all for $1088. I will upgrade to the 80W battery and an M.2 NVME WD Black 1TB, thank you again for all the informative links and video.
@@anirudhnair558 I ordered my 80W battery from Lenovo as an OEM 2yrs ago, though I checked today & they only sell the 60W battery. Guess I got lucky with an 80W battery in my Legion 5. 🙂
PCIe 3. It will accept PCIe 4 though it will run at PCIe 3 speeds. Though you will be able to upgrade to 4tb single sided PCIe 4. You're limited to a maximum of 2 tb single sided with PCIe 3. The dual sided 4tb PCIe 3 cards won't fit properly. They have to be single sided or they rub on side and overheat.
Great video. I loved it =) Just to let you know, one thing to mention about the memory upgrade is checking the limit of memory that the motherboard can use before you buy. It would be a terrible waste of money if you can't upgrade due to motherboard limitation. Keep that in mind :)
For those thinking of buying late 2021, I just got mine on black Friday deal, model Legion 5-15ARH05, there is no space for 2.5 SATA, only NVM storage upgrade! I did bought a 2T EVO and installed, no regrets!
Your Lenovo videos are always first rate. That said, I am a lifelong ThinkPad user and whenever I see what Lenovo has been selling since the overpriced but cheaply made T440 I wonder if we shall ever see true quality again. Obviously key components have become more powerful but the loss of so many ports, dumping of optical and penny pinching on SD bandwidth (where SDs are even fitted) has shown Lenovo's current management to be trading on a once great and distinctive pedigree. Actual machines are in fact little better than things costing 50% less. Dell also had a bad quality patch but seemed to learn from crashing sales. HP are mostly bad with the occasional machines being at Elitebook and Probook standards of a dozen years ago. Many of us in the area of education IT are going back to Clevo base models honed and finished by specialist companies and having so-called 'gaming computers' modified to serve our middle term needs. We also note that some ASUS models a few years old are more accessible and upgradeable than the Big Three. We think it possible that Framework and firms like it could herald the future because many models yet too narrow a range is the reality of the big three non-Mac companies. Their greed and laziness could sink them rather quickly.
I bought the Legion 5 Pro 16ACH6H after watching thousands of reviews and many of yours! NO regrets so far! Thank you @Jarrod'sTech I'm managing to play everything on Ultra / Extreme the screen is so smooth that I can't look at my Acer predator 1980x1080 144hz 1ms second screen with the same eyes. Now I need to buy a new screen to be in pair with this laptop, considering the Samsung Odyssey G7 32. By 2022 I hope to expand memo + more disk and perhaps battery, however, the default config is being more than enough.
I just got the Legion 5 17inch yesterday (5800H, 3060) but the SSD just 512gb. i will add 1TB SSD now. this video is very usefur for me ! Thank you Dude~~
Hi Jarrod, Just wondering here do you know what’s the maximum NVme you can upgrade to this laptop? Did it support 4tb / 2tb nvme stick? I have this machine for two weeks now and if possible I would love to have the biggest storage I can go for my editing work ;)
@@ryanspackman548 Hey Ryan, seems like there is no limitation to how large the SSD is, I believe I heard this from Jarrod somewhere. so you can go as high as you want. I myself ed up upgrading to 2TB, as it brings the most value in my country as of right now. Hope that helps mate!
Just upgraded my Legion's SSD partially thanks to your video. Thanks. The store sent me a Western Digital SSD instead of the Samsung one I ordered, but whatever, I'm glad to have one more terabyte of space.

@@bipbop3121 I would love it if Lenovo had the option to go for a higher percentage, though I’m sure they’ve done their research before coming to the decision of setting it to 60 by default.
Doesn't this mean your battery can only charge up to 60% while you're using it, why would you want this?
Reminds me of the Vaio Care battery life feature on my old i5 2011 Sony SvS15 dinosaur. Still kicking strong after 10 years.
Tip for those of you planning on doing this (which is well worth it!): Take your time when prying the laptop open. There are tiny clips on the inside which are pretty fragile and I snapped one when opening. Not a huge deal, but still best to be careful.

You might be able to use the M.2 drive as well as a 2.5 inch SATA SSD at the same time if you take apart the 2.5 inch SSD by removing it's plastic housing. Inside that there's a high chance you'll have a small circuit board which is the SSD. After that you might even be able to have all three options, larger battery, SATA SSD, M.2 SSD(As long as that M.2 isn't the same port though, shouldn't be if the M.2 is NVME).
I guess those second drive ports (sata and nvme), share the bus. that's why you shouldn't connect both drives by force.
@@visitor404 I've had the drives connected this way for over a year and I haven't noticed any drops in performance

I bought the Legion 5 based on JT's recommendation. I've been super happy with it and I've just now upgraded it using this video. This dude is the certified goat in the gaming laptop field. Clear, relevant information packaged in great videos. Thanks!
Thanks for including the 80 Wh battery upgrade section! The Legion really became the best overall gaming laptop of 2020 with these upgrades. Would've been nice to see if RAM with better timings and tuning further improved the experience.
Yeah faster timings would have been fun, but this is all I had access to without buying expensive memory just for the video 😁
Included RAM is CL22. There is no XMP supported on Legion 5, and better RAM is only CL20. The performance difference is really small, like 1-2 fps, if exists at all. CL20 HyperX Impact RAM kit is about 150-180$, totally not worth it, IMO.

Just upgraded my legion 5 with your help! Thank you. 1tb goes a long way!
Loved how clear and detailed this was. I will be doing some of these upgrades. Thank yoy.

Thanks!
Hey thanks for the support!
The inner design and expandability look quite good together with massive heat pipes. It reminds me of an old laptop from Dell that my cousin bought many years ago.
Love how I found this video 3 days after putting in my 2.5 ssd. First time I've taken apart a computer and did any kind of installs. It went great, but fantastic content nonetheless!
Hey man quick question. When upgrading storage will you need to transfer the storage from the old one into the new SSD?
@@hectorrmdz if by "transfer storage", you mean transfer windows to the new ssd, you dont.
You need to disconnect the battery before ripping metal shields off the motherboard, because you can short the powered rails and the laptop would be dead. Despite that good and short video showing on what needs to be done to upgrade these things :)
I know someone is going to ruin their laptop if they just watch this video without doing further research,
lol - that's like saying you need to dismantle the laptop's screen before doing any upgrade to the laptop.
@@xibeon Disconnecting the battery is ALWAYS the first thing you should do when taking apart something. I know you will probably say that nothing's happened to you, and I've never had any issues with it either, but that does not make it safe in the slightest. Also good job responding to a 1 year old comment, really showed em
@@ActualRealKayamariOfficialVEVO Yeah nothing bad happened to any laptop I've ever opened and they were quite a few. I don't even know anyone who somehow damaged any laptop by not disconnecting the battery. Im sure you don't either. The thing with damaging the laptop by not disconnecting the battery is a internet myth. Sure, it can happed to someone somewhere, but same goes with lightning strike or lottery winning.
@@xibeon Just because it's unlikely doesn't mean it's not a risk that should be taken. Disconnecting the battery takes three seconds to do and means the risk (even if it's as low as you think) is put to 0. that's better odds than leaving it connected. Why do you want to keep the battery plugged in in the first place? Also, if I'm working on something that's worth multiple hundred dollars you bet I don't want to take any risks in the slightest about frying it.
This is a beast of a casual gaming and full time dev laptop. 8-cores and 64GB of ram. You can't go wrong with that.
Actually, you shouldn't add more memory than you'll need. It actually proves to hinder performance. Using these faster nvme drives really makes more ram unnecessary. Check benchmarks with more vs less RAM online.
This is great man, I've been thinking about upgrading my legion 5 and this was a really detailed guide. Thanks for the help 🙂

Just ordered a 32gb ram kit and 1tb m.2 SSD. Super stoked, thank you for the guide ❤️❤️
My legion 5’s internals did not look like yours, at all.
My HDD orientation was flipped, the m.2 drive didn’t have a place for me to screw in, and my battery was fucking massive and ran the whole way across the bottom.
Like what the fuck
@@Birdo720 Ahaha lol, I hope mine is like the video. I'm putting a second m2, do you know if I can install windows in it? And use as main m2? Thanks!
So upgrading laptop is basically LEGO adult version
Exactly
I like that Lenovo included the four SSD screws even though they are very much standard screws that are likely to come with the SSD as well. And their decision to specially design a piece of plastic to hold them is so smart as well. They could have just gone lazy and put them in the plastic bag with other accessories, which the user is unlikely to remember or even notice. It's details like this that make me approve of a product that much more.

You sir, are a legend. Went through all the Lenovo manuals, no help there...this was great. They suck with a 512gb main drive, bumping that to a 2tb M2 and the 2.5 to a 4tb storage. That'll do...for a while. And courtesy of you, I wont bump the RAM or WIFI up now. The battery upgrade looks good, but I reckon the bulk SSD space will prove more useful...Your clip was fast, comprehensive, engaging and informative. Excellent production values there. Thank you.
does a 2TB M.2 SSD work? Specs only suggest up to 1TB. I wonder if I could put in 2x 2TB M2s....
@@ryanspackman548 have you try?
I did put in a pair of 2tb ssds. No dramas. They are Samsung 970s I think. Partitioned 500gb for OS and programs, 1.5 storage and 2tb game drive. No worries, and blisteringly fast. Love it.
Um, didn't the video state that you can only either use one of the drives? Either m.2 or the 2.5" drive thing? How did you manage to use both?
Thankfully paid someone else to do it!! Mind you, tech said it was no drama - and they are paired 970 2tb m2 ssd. Been a long time now, very fast and stable. Only issues are Windows based ones!
Tip:
Disconnect the battery first so that you don't destroy your motherboard, because if by chance any screw fell on yhe motherboard it's going to destroy your Lappy.
Remember guys better safe than sorry. 🙂🙂
I was looking exactly for this comment! he did not switch off battery!
As an owner of this machine, I feel like some important topics were missed here.
Upgrading RAM isn't just about capacity. Sometimes it is about performance. What will this machine do with tighter timings? What are the actual limits it will accept? Is there a 3400MT/s or faster kit available that will work?
Can the cooling be upgraded? I know in the past, Lenovo has different cooling for different SKUs. I also own the 1660Ti version. Is the 2060 cooling module better? If so, would it be possible to upgrade to the 2060 cooling kit to improve temps? If you can, does that improve performance in any meaningful way?
Make a video or link a source to switching the cooling kits I never heard of that.
@@CleverCheetah I was asking as the "upgrade guide" was missing the upgrades that appeared to be worth doing. It is common practice to have different cooling based upon the build. First I ran into that, was with the W520. Upgrading from a dual core to a quad core included a cooling upgrade. Upgrading from the low end to high end GPU involved a cooling upgrade. And you could purchase, and install that upgraded cooler yourself if you wanted to lower temps on parts that weren't maxed out for the platform.
I assumed the same would apply to the Legion 5 - given the upgraded parts available. However, that topic was never approached by the author.
After 3 years finally i can upgrade my ram, got used 16x2 for $50. Thanks for the tutorial.
Hmm it looks like 64gb RAM doesn't really add much value over the 16gb RAM.
Depends if you need the capacity or not, if you're doing a ton of stuff and editing big files it will matter more.
@@JarrodsTech (edit this is due to the application not being able to use the ram I had properly, I have 32gb of sodimm ddr4, and the *32 bit* application could only use about 4) Take the following with a grain of salt.
And if your playing old titles on high settings, I was playing Microsoft Flight Simulator X (2006) and it crashed and gave an error similar to "Memory Exceeded." when I flew over Newark Liberty International.
Upgrading RAM isn't for higher framerates, it's so when you get a memory leak it doesn't completely crash your computer, and you can run 800 chrome tabs. It's also extremely useful for audio editing as you can run a lot of VSTs simultaneously, on 16GB you would get an instant crash on a complicated track. Also, let's say you build a program that's large like a video game, you may need more than 16GB just to build. Or if you want to rewrite a large Git history. Or if you're a scientist and you want to analyse a large dataset.
I got 64GB last feb and since then my computer has never stalled and I am constantly running unity, photoshop, fl studio, resolve, bitbucket, rider, 100 tabs in firefox, thunderbird, filezilla, google sync, playstation and xbox devkit tools. Often streaming on slobs, have excel open in the background, a bunch of copies of ms paint with screenshots open, everything, my music editor, my vpn, steam, avast, parsec. I have never gone above 40GB even during memory leaks. I used to max 24GB all the time.
@@AlexRoseGames damn you make me want 64gigs of RAM.. I use mad tabs and run multiple browsers, vpn, wallpaper engine, games, video, photoshop etc
@@suzukaziodyne9723 64gb is the truth
If you know what you're doing, I strongly recommend changing stock thermal paste for liqud metal (Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut in my case) Temperatures dropped from 98C° to ~75C° on CPU in full load, which is a nice improvement for longevity and performance of your HW.
utterly retarded idea. Liquid metal is a compound which includes galium. it is meant to seal die and shielding.
it is not meant to go on the shielding as it will corrode the metal (gallium!).
surefire way to kill your hardware. "improvement for longevity" my ass.
Added 500GB M.2 SSD successfully with the help of your video. really appreciate it mate. thanks
The 64gb RAM upgrade might not show much improvement in specific applications, but it will be useful for people managing workloads that require it, like virtual machines and docker along with other machine learning tasks. So its good that this laptop supports 64gb RAM.
It actually doesnt thats the thing…. I contacted lenovo support reps and they said though you can put in up to 64, anything past 16 will not provide much improvement due to the motherboards limits
@@llamaloversunite it does not exactly supports more than 16gb of ram?that's a deal break for me since I consume more than 16gb
for anyone watching this, dont change the thermal paste for any of the legions, they use a phase changing thermal pad and its very good in laptops
Does this mean the thermal paste never has to be reapplied on it? my current lenovo ideapad 520 is thermal throttling and I think the reason is that the thermal paste is dried out. If thats not an issue with the legion Ill be even more sold on it then I already am right now
@@deadfox5489change it then but pick a good brand thermal paste not mx4 or mx5 they are not good after testing
Thank you so much man. Been looking for 2h+ on how to install NVME on my legion 5 and this is the only one that helped!
Good. i recommend disconect the battery before any manipulation.
I got this laptop and it's awesome. I have the intel version and i've never had a problem with it. It dosen't overheat or anything like that. But the biggest downside is that it only has 3 modes which sucks, other than that everything else is just perfect.

For those thinking of buying late 2021, I just got mine on black Friday deal, model Legion 5-15ARH05, there is no space for 2.5 SATA, only NVM storage upgrade! I did bought a 2T EVO and installed, no regrets!
Coul you replace both NVM SSDs with 2TB each for a total of 4TB?
Your Lenovo videos are always first rate. That said, I am a lifelong ThinkPad user and whenever I see what Lenovo has been selling since the overpriced but cheaply made T440 I wonder if we shall ever see true quality again.
Obviously key components have become more powerful but the loss of so many ports, dumping of optical and penny pinching on SD bandwidth (where SDs are even fitted) has shown Lenovo's current management to be trading on a once great and distinctive pedigree. Actual machines are in fact little better than things costing 50% less. Dell also had a bad quality patch but seemed to learn from crashing sales. HP are mostly bad with the occasional machines being at Elitebook and Probook standards of a dozen years ago.
Many of us in the area of education IT are going back to Clevo base models honed and finished by specialist companies and having so-called 'gaming computers' modified to serve our middle term needs. We also note that some ASUS models a few years old are more accessible and upgradeable than the Big Three.
We think it possible that Framework and firms like it could herald the future because many models yet too narrow a range is the reality of the big three non-Mac companies. Their greed and laziness could sink them rather quickly.
