    My loq 2024 with 17 13650HX and rtx 4060 died 3 times after purchase. I don’t want a mobo replacement. I have filed grievance in consumer portal. I have also mailed escalation team in Lenovo and also made a post on X.

    I recently bought Loq R5 7235HS,
    But it has no integrated gpu,
    It has 4 cores and 4 cores are performance core...so the battery life is too low😭😭.
    I think you should go with igpu systems

    you can build yourself pc with 4070 super for almost the same price as lenovo loq 4060 and have 0 problems. gaming laptops is a big waste especially the one with 4060 since it will be dead in 1-2 years anyway thx to 8 gb vram. absolutely 0 future proof for that price.

      @@jayantcharan12 gaming laptops are not portable since they are huge and heavy + insanely bad battery any ultrabook or mac will destroy it in terms of portability or unplug performance + most of gaming laptops users only use it stationary since you can’t use it for work or study thx to bad battery. the only decent gaming laptop people have right now is asus zephyrus g14 it’s thin 5 hours battery(still bad compared to 15-18 hours ultrabooks) and pretty light. don’t lie to yourself people not using gaming laptops as portable devices. the only reason i can see to buy yourself a gaming laptop if you are living in dormitory or in another country/have to move a lot and you like to play games.

      Nothing. Your laptop if fine. Just try to prevent overheating as it kills the motherboard chipsets/vrms.

    • @makingtechfriendly
      @makingtechfriendly  3 місяці тому

      Keep using it as you normally would. If it starts having BSOD, be ready for a backup machine. And once it dies, get multiple motherboard replacement until you get a working motherboard or a refund.
      If Intel or Lenovo doesn't respond until then.

      If you think buying an AMD CPU magically makes the motherboard better, then no.

      I just uninstalled that game not due to the safety boot requirement as any sort of competition, take FaceIT CS requires the same, and people do that all the time, the problem with Valorant is it runs always unless you close it and if you want to play it, you have to restart your whole system.
      That's unique to Valorant. The constant running in background even when not gaming
