Excellently most valuable game optimization video I found yet . Solved most of the issues even those which I was suffering from since 8 months , but all of them got solved. Thanks you are sincere . I value people like you bro. Appreciate greatly and you have my gratitude. I am not overjoyed but I am overgrateful. ❤️🙏🏾
Most of these tips I've already seen elsewhere, but i still subbed cuz you do seem very passionate about what you do so i wish luck sir. Quick question: How did you customise your tool bar that way and where did you find this sick wallpaper?
disabling 8 threads of my octacore ryzen 7 5800h in cyberpunk gave me negative increase of fps, stabile lags and same 90*C good advice, recommend for all
i followed your video to the T and im expecting some pretty ridiculous gameplay. only had a slight malfunction updating my nvidia driver. either way congrats on 3k bby.
I would recommend using the Lenovo Legion Toolkit instead of Lenovo Vantage. It has pretty much all the functionality as Lenovo Vantage, but it's incredibly lightweight and has a lot more features than Lenovo Vantage itself. I'm rocking a Lenovo Legion 5 with an RTX 3060 and Ryzen 5 5600H.
💥 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! What the hell Lenovo does in their laptops? Yes, the resolution it is set correctly, and the bad image happens even when I pass it to the TV.
if you are playing videogames but then u quit and use the laptop for standard workshop like office or youtube, music and stuff do u switch to hybrid mode? or can u keep without hybrid... also for the performance mode, should i change to balance or quiet as soon as i quit a game? thanks a lot for the video
Search for the processor boost reg hack. Enabling this allows you to disable CPU boost via your power plan eg in balanced or quiet mode. This can substantially reduce CPU temps with very little noticeable impact on general tasks and even gaming. Works well for me on an AMD Legion 5 Pro. Another suggestion is a frame cap on games eg 75-100hz so that you aren't stressing your GPU unecessarily. Few games really benefit from 100+ frames. Most single player games have diminishingly returns after 75+ fps. This ought to bring your GPU temps down substantially.
The problem I am having now is I get distracted by the capslock indicator on-screen, do you know how to turn it off, I tried in the settings, control panel, task manager, and services, but it still pops up. Is there a way to turn it off?
Lenovo has the download link for the updated driver here: support.lenovo.com/bd/en/downloads/ds552327-mediatek-mt7921-wireless-lan-driver-for-windows-10-version-2004-or-later-thinkpad-l14-gen-2-types-20x5-20x6-l15-gen-2-types-20x7-20x8
interestingly both lenovo vantage, and the lenovo website that automatically scans for driver updates didn't find the wifi driver update, despite device manager showing it was on older software. Also I don't have core isolation on my 2023 7i pro it says the page not available
I have a Legion 5 with RTX 3060Ti but seeing this I know why Console gamers like PS 7 Xbox they dont have to fiddle as much it just works out of the box
I have a Lenovo, and maybe the options you proposed in this video will apply to it, but first, a question. I updated the bios through lenovo vantage, will it cause problems with the nvidia card or not? even so, it was a very good video, sorry for my bad english, greetings from chile.
This solved everything and I had consistent 180 fps in everything but then I had a huge lag spike and now i get low fps and my game freezes every 5-10 minutes no matter what I do. Someone please help.
I need help my legion 5 3060 i7 11th gen 16gb ram. I have many fps drop in those game i tested: fivem, fortnite rumbleverse. But the games i dont have stutter is: gta5 (online/offline) , valorant. There is no cpu bottle neck cpu is fine at game 60 degrees, gpu overclocked trough bios and using legion fan control, all drivers updated (gpu only dont know how on cpu). I tried many options like using timerresolution and mem reduct doesnt help i get many fps like around valorant 300fps in main game and on fortnite getting arround 300fps pls i need help!!
Great video thanks for all the hardword but on my nvidia geforce experience page once i open the drivers tab and click on the latest nvidia game ready driver it says no information available and one i press reinstall it says driver download failed. Could you help me out please?
Doesn’t matter. No point in having a bunch of space for it to sit empty. I mean, I didn’t buy a 4TB sabrent rocket NVME to… not use it. You’ll replace the NVME with something new way before it fails anyway. That’s like buying a 3090 and then throttling down the clock speed because you’re afraid of high temps for some reason.
Thanks buddy, I turned it on today to just set it up, I will tell you it does get warm quickly.. I gotta figure how to mess around with settings and stuff. But, the screen looks so beautiful@@Houndx
Holy shit mate, I remember watching your old videos about the 2020 models etc(after getting myself one) and your voice has changed too much that I had to double check the channel lmao. Keep up the good content though! (p.s are you in any of the legion unofficial discords?)
I had to use the Windows power mode to reduce the fans. This was impossible with Lenovo's quiet mode. There is a time for gaming and a time for everything else.
Can we enable our Nvidia Graphics without the Battery applied to it cuz when power is cut off the laptop's discrete gpu dosent work in games. So can we play games like if the power is connected when its not?
My legion has crashed since trying to play hogwarts legacy. Now it continues to crash just trying to do a troubleshooting test through lenovo. It will not stay on. I’ve already sent it in 3 times, I really don’t want to have to send it in again. Anyone have some advice?

Dear, Sometimes my Lenovo S7 does not turn on the graphics card when I turn on the computer for the first time in the day, I have to restart the laptop to get the graphics card connected. Do you know what causes this type of error? My components are Intel i7-12700H and RTX 3060 (I don't know if this information is relevant). Thank you.
Hi! Thank you for this video! I am at begining of the optimization and it is saying fot the network boost to download the neccessary driver, but I cannot find that..
When i changed GPU WORKING MODE to DGPU MODE does that mean the laptop will always use dedicated graphics cards instead of integrated ones( even when not playing games)

Why you not install physx drivers? Why not hyper thread? And why you advice to disable security feature? These are core functions of Computer. Physx drivers make physics work faster. If you don’t install them then computer will use cpu instead of flu if U I remember correctly. Hyper threading makes it use cpu better. And never disable security. Security disablers usually want you to install something on your computer or want to game with you to somehow get your up trough old dated voice call softwares or trough older games. Hackers can get your ip trough their own voice server programs like ventrilo and team speak - heck even Skype can leak your ip or at least it used to. That’s why we have discord now that hides your ip. And older counter strike servers could be commanded to tell whole servers for players in-game name, steam ID and ip address with console command. Keep security on. Stay safe.
Hyper threading does improve cpu performance in other workloads like video editing but usually results lower performance in games so that’s why you disable it for only the games you play. As for security, this is just disabling windows defender, which takes up a lot cpu and ram usage. If you want it on, by all means but I would recommend using a different antivirus like malwarebytes that take up less system resources if you care enough about security.
yo bro my fps will be steady 144 fps then 2-3 minutes later (without the charger) it will drop to 60fps then 45fps then 30fps please help me my lenovo legion is 2022 and with the charger it runs like a demon

I did everything but nothing happened if you see this can you pleases help me
I did that in my lenovo it has 16 cores it gave me 20 fps in apex
@@ahmedtunio452 did you use task manager or process lasso?
@@Houndxprocess lasso as soon aa i used it my fps went from 170 to 20

Driver updates are also really important for RTX GPUs because they usually add support for ray tracing and DLSS to new games

I am not able to see dgpu option in my system
Me neither
You guys don't need more than 120 fps. It raises the temp above 70degrees which will kill the lifetime of the laptops in half.
Why is there a need to uncheck the PhysX System Software?
It’s not necessary to have it installed unless if you use it
Does the Hybrid GPU on Lenovo advantage and Advanced Optimus on NVidia Control Panel cohexist? Does one overwrite the other? It's really confusing
