    Right off the bat, the "cheaper", "less expensive" Thinkbook 14" that is "marketed as not as premium" as the Thinkpad T series line has 2 sodimm slots, 2 ssd slots, upgradeable wifi card and replaceable battery all in a 14" aluminum chassis which can't be said about the 14" Thinkpad T/P series laptops. Seems this is a better laptop.

    Great review. Just want to mention this model has a potential design oversight with a description and solution below. With this solution, the machine is silent for almost all regular tasks whereas before the fans would kick on often (when installing software, for example).
    Description:
    Lenovo seems to have created an ingenious cooling system which pulls air from the underside of the chassis across the memory and storage. The ventilation grid is partially covered in the center, forcing air across other components rather than relying on a dual fan system. In theory, this helps keep all components cooler and is a great way to utilize a single fan. However, the fresh air enters closer to the processor and ram, leaving unnecessarily high ambient temperatures on the storage which is located adjacent to the heat pipe leading to the fan. The potential design oversight? To be effective at cooling, the mechanism relies on the condition that air is being moved which produces noise in the process.
    This got me wondering if the storage was causing unnecessary stress on the cooling system. This simple test involved monitoring the temperatures both idle and under load during a speed test.
    - PCIE slot #1 idled at 37C to 42C with a max load of 79C on the speed test
    - PCIE slot #2 idled at 26C to 31C with a max load of 89C on the speed test
    This proved the drive was susceptible to ambient temperatures from the heat pipe while in slot #1, and the cooling system was working on the drive under load as well (and producing noise in the process).
    Solution:
    When the primary drive is in PCIE slot #2 the machine runs dramatically quieter but did hit an uncomfortably high max as mentioned above. However, placing a 3mm heat sink on the drive (do not do this, the lid doesn't close) yielded max temperatures below 80C putting it in line with being actively cooled. I have since ordered a 1mm heat sink which is rated around 6C to 9C, which should keep the drive within comfortable temperatures under load (which does not happen frequently anyway). In the meantime, I am trading a potentially high max temperature on the drive while under load for a (much) quieter machine pending the heat sink.
    tldr; Try placing your primary drive into PCIE slot #2 with a ~1mm heat sink and see if the machine runs cooler and quieter overall.

    • @Linters-uh1kk
      @Linters-uh1kk 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Update: The heat sink on the NVME reduced temperatures dramatically. Although the vendor rated the heat sink for 6-9C, it actually went from 79C on average to about 47-51C during the tests (28-32C!). The processor is the 13700H variant and the fans manage to stabilize it around 93C, with moderate fan speed which is surprisingly not that loud. According to Intel, the processors are specifically designed to operate hotter while under load. This could explain the 93 mark is maintained without the fans on full. The dual-channel RAM (32GB total) is reaching 73 and above during tests which does seem on the toasty side. But obviously, I am trying to nitpick on performance here in a practical way. Similar to the SSD, I attempted to place a 0.01mm conductive material which did absolutely nothing to RAM temperatures. A larger heat sink (0.5mm) is on order and will update this with results on the memory. So far, really happy with this machine. Even with added upgrades, the machine came out reasonably priced.
      Side note: Also replaced the thermal paste with PTM7950 and it did not do much on that front. Idle temps were reduced by 1-3C, but under load it was not much of a difference. Lenovo did a great job applying thermal paste to this machine on the two that were ordered.
      edit: Removed the specific cost above because it is not particularly relevant.

    • @Linters-uh1kk
      @Linters-uh1kk 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Final update: After much deliberation and experimentation with ram cooling solutions, it is not the way to go. The mylar which covers the ram has a thin sheet of aluminum which connects to one of the two heat pipes cooling the CPU. It then connects to the IO on the left side of the notebook, effectively creating another heat sink. Additionally, mylar is great at protecting from interference which could be important when working near some machines. While the ram temperatures do decrease with a heat sink, they still maintain within safe operating temperatures without it.
      tldr; The mylar covering the memory slots is actually a functional heat sink and should not be removed. It also protects the ram from interference, and the ram maintains within decent operating temperatures without a heat sink. The first solution with a thin 0.5mm heat sink on the primary storage in NVME slot #2 with default configuration elsewhere is likely the best outcome for this machine.

    • @Linters-uh1kk
      @Linters-uh1kk 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      The hinge is attached to the body by about 3 screws on each side. On this model (G6) the point of failure appears to be the display and frame itself, not the hinges or where they are attached. The display can open up to 180 degrees and maintain a position. Going beyond that would likely cause problems but would take force...
      For whatever reason, opening notebooks with one hand has been considered a luxury feature generally at the expense of a display that doesn't maintain its position too well. When this notebook is opened at any angle, it tends to stay in that position. Personally, I think opening with two hands is a good tradeoff for hinge stability.
      When opening, it would be best not to use too much force concentrated in a small area. There is a flat area above the front-facing webcam, so prying with a palm on that spot, and avoiding the very edges of the display may help reduce concentrated force. @@depression-cherry

      Is your i7-13700h model quite noisy in basic tasks? And if you use some programs like easy 3D or which ones did you use? Does the cooling system cope with the operation of this processor? (Sorry for the inaccurate translation, because I am writing with the help of a translator)

    • @Linters-uh1kk
      @Linters-uh1kk 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      These Intel processors are designed to run at a high temperature. As a result, the fans rarely kick on for regular tasks even on the 13700H variant. However, this was not always the case in my experience. As noted above, this model has a possible design oversight which can be easily fixed by moving the primary drive from PCIE Slot #1 to PCIE Slot #2. This is because in Slot #1, the drive shares ambient temperatures with the processor as it is located closely to the processor heat pipes.
      By moving the primary drive into PCIE Slot #2 with a thin heat sink (Not sticker type; max total height including thermal pads 1.5mm), it outperforms the potential active cooling under load in Slot #1 and reduces idle temperatures and noise by a significant amount. The mylar covering above the RAM also spans from the heat pipe on the processor, to the IO on the side of the notebook creating an additional miniature heat sink. When performing a ram upgrade, the mylar should be carefully attached back to the copper pipe above the processor.@@ivan_E587

      @Linters-uh1kk 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@domantlen6231 This is only a recommendation, Lenovo engineers traded fan noise for assurance the drive would receive active cooling when needed. The i7-13700H is quite powerful, so for silent operation in ordinary tasks the primary drive placed in slot #2 is best. Loading the OS, page/swap file, indexing, etc. are going to generate heat which increases ambient temperatures by the processor and triggers the fans easier.
      By silent, I mean the fan does not kick on during general use. I found a DRAM-less drive or one that generates less heat can be placed in Slot #2 and does not require active cooling. Slot #1 can be used for a secondary drive, but any demanding tasks will increase ambient temperatures and contribute to heat.
      tldr; Slot #1 can be used but it will be best with a secondary drive.

    As mentioned previously, I bought a version that came with the Ryzen 5 7430u (Not the 7530u) with one 16gb RAM, then added a second 16gb stick. It also has the 45wh battery with the same 300 nit screen as the one reviewed in this video, and the 512gb SSD. I paid USD equivalent of $502 plus $32 for the extra 16gb stick of RAM. I feel like this is quite a good laptop for the $534 I've spent.
    It benchmarks well! On Time Spy I got almost the same score on 3 tries:
    Total 1371
    Graphics 1208
    CPU 5911
    This is better than average for a 7530u, so I'm impressed.

I also checked the reviews of the website and it's 1.5 stars out of 5 ( trusted reviews Italy). So, practically all your recommendations make only sense, if you have more than a month to wait. And I don't. It's 2024 for goodness sake. We've got one-day delivery...

      Yes, the AMD Ryzen 7 7730u is much faster and cheaper than the Intel Core i5 1335u, but it is also a last-generation CPU refresh. This means that it does not support Thunderbolt or USB 4, DDR5, or PCIe Gen 4. However, it is more efficient with much better battery life. The limitations of DDR4 and PCIe Gen 3 are not noticeable in most real-world scenarios, but Thunderbolt 4 and speed/efficiency are the most important differentiating factors in my view. If you want a better battery life with a more powerful CPU, go with the Ryzen 7 7730u. If you need to transfer large files quickly, go with the i5 1335u (My bad for any English faux pas, not my first language).

    I can't decide between 14 and 16 inch thinkbook model, in both cases I would go with AMD Ryzen 7 7730U and bigger battery. Mainly for Office tasks and some browsing, maybe 1-2 times/year I would take laptop on vacation - but not any big tasks are planned. I assume battery wouldn't drain faster with Ryzen 7 as with Ryzen 5 or 3 with regular workload, because TDP's are the same? If someone can recommend something - thanks in advance.

      Battery life won't be good due to the i7-13700H "full fat" processor. Display is average as its a 'budget' business laptop, Lenovo save the better ones for their premium ThinkPad lineup.
