I am planning on getting either this machine (with RTX3060) or Asus ROG Strix G15 Advantage edition. I am mostly gonna be using it for gaming and browsing. I am also not using an external display. Does RX6800M perform better than RTX3060+MUX? Which one would you recommend?
@@sreenaths6829 advantage edition is better in terms of raw performance.. but it also runs way hotter.. legion laptops are usually cool.. and nvidia has cool tricks like dlss and raytracing
Removing Mcafee is one of the most important things to do. That thing hogs so much CPU for no reason! Even when your laptop is idle, it will still hog up resources for no reason!
Today is the day. I am getting a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro ( Rtx 3070). As soon as it gets delivered, gonna start doing everything said on this video. Thanks, couldn't do this all on my own! 🔥 Edit: Upgraded to 32 gb ram (dual rank) . Runs even better now.
So worth it! I did everything here and got around 30 fps increase for all my games! Hell let loose Epic settings before: 40-55fps Hell let loose Epic settings after: 60-80
Really appreciate the help, I have a legion 7i with an rtx 3800 and I was having issues with running tarkov I was so confused on why I couldn't get above 60fps with such a high end laptop but with your suggestions I average about 90-100 fps now, great video!
I recently got Lenovo Legion 5 (5800H+3060) i play only one game and it`s rather old (Guild Wars 2) and do some work in Photoshop so far im impressed by performance and temps (50c gpu, 60-65 cpu in gw2) i play on external monitor. I took your advice and opted for last years model (got it on discount for 1k euro). Love the videos you make keep up the good work!

When you play a game, have you ever tried to feel the underside of the rear connectors with a finger? if I almost try to burn my finger, does it do that to you too?
great, thank you very much for the video... you could also bring a tutorial to be able to have the longest possible battery life.... I need the longest possible duration since during work hours I need them for programs like Word, excel or meet....
Just downloaded legion fan control and was met with a 'Virus detected' prompt. I was downloading via opera gx, don't know if this opera is just over sensitive and cautious with downloads or if it really is a malicious file but I'd rather be safe than sorry!
@@Klaustheking Same for me, but I've used it before and it caused 0 problems. It's false positive. It gets detected because it has driver that tampers with your hardware
Thank you for this video! I just got a legion 5i Pro gen 7 with 3070 and 12700h same specs as you. Very happy with it so far! runs tarkov great on high settings. Do you happen to have any experience with the Lenovo legion toolkit?
I have the Legion 5 Pro with the 3070 and Ryzen 5800H. You seem to have some options that I don't have, and I noticed some options you don't have. For example I can't seem to switch to the dGPU, and I don't have any other options with the hybrid mode on this laptop.
Nice video! I always was searching for something like this because I wanted to be sure, now...I want to know if you experience color banding with games, videos etc...
I am getting the 5800h + rtx 3060 combo soon, and I was wondering how the initial setup should look like. I am getting one with no OS on it, so are there any things I should do first, or in a particular order? I plan to start with an AMD update using adrenaline, and an Nvidia update thru their site, and whatever is left thru the vantage? Thank, great clip!
Vantage doesn't get all drivers, I reccomend going to their site and manually installing drivers. My keyboard rgb wasn't working until I got the driver on the site even though I checked Vantage. Also fortnite stutters with hardware accelerated gpu scheduling and so do some other games that get high fps.
@@Saul-mv7dm ThrottleStop for CPU, MSI Afterburner for GPU. Also I changed thermal paste on my laptop (it was in a very bad condition for some reason) to thermal pads (Honeywell PTM7950) and temps decreased greatly even without undervolting. Now I have around 80-82 CPU, 75-80 GPU on heavy load without undervolt. So if undervolting will not help you, you can try to apply thermal pads for CPU and GPU. But I don't guarantee that this will help you 100%. In my case it worked well. p.s. Afterburner didn't helped me much to decrease temps, so i tried another util named Asus GPU Tweak. I just set temp limits to GPU to min (75degree), but it should be done everytime you turn on laptop. This util does it job very well, temps on GPU never jump above limits.
@@sontungtrinh710 Tbh throttlestop didn't help much for me. On my laptop i was able to get it to work properly without bsoding with offset voltage set on -70v for cpu core and cpu cache in FIVR settings. But as i said it didn't lowered temps much, maybe -1 or -2 degree. In my case the only thing that helped lower the temperature and decrease fan noise was changing default thermal paste to thermal pads.
Hey man thanks for the video. Keep it up. I just wanted to ask the issue I get on this laptop. I recently started to get fps drops after playing a game like 30 min. And also I am not getting enough fps as I used to get. What might the problem?
@@TechTyrial Thanks for the reply. I am usually getting around 80/90c temps and I believe those are normal. I also upgraded GPU, CPU drivers and BIOS. I am thinking formatting the laptop. Would it work?
💥 I bought an brazilian Lenovo Legion 5i i7 12700h RTX 3060 and I hate the lack of definition, sharpness, of the images at the games! The games are not crispy, are blurry!

May I ask for your help? I am considering getting an external monitor for a Lenovo legion 5, it has an Intel i7 11800h and rtx 3070. Which monitor do you recommend?
Hey, heads ups. Installation of legion fan control requires editing the windows regs. It wouldn’t normally be a problem, but the specific edit causes blue screen in some games. Can you showcase any substitute for this app?
How do you have 4 settings for mux switch? I have only "HYBRID MODE" and then i can either disable or enable it? Please respond! I have 2022 model Legion 5 Pro. Also, mine has big lighted up Y logo on the lid, your have LEGION without lights?
I have a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro Ryzen 7. When it is plugged to a charger it works fine, but when I unplug it, the performence slows down dramatically. How can I fix that?
Wthout a charge your laptop draws power from its battery and runs on less power than when charging to conserve battery life and less power = less performance Not a complete fix but you could manually select performance mode since the pc may automatically turn it off when not charging, it drains the battery tho
Please, I have a problem in that I own a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro laptop, and there are some features that have disappeared from the Lenovo Vantage program, such as: thermal mode, over drive, touchpad lock, keyboard light mode, and I do not know how to return them. Please, I need your help.
