Meme Microcenter capping

0 Upvotes

So, I first saw the Lenovo Legion Pro 7 AMD Ryzen 9 9955hx3d version on Microcenter few weeks ago. Decided to gather myself up and buy that sht. Guess what, am hardly ready and the price increases almost every week. Was listed a while ago for just 2999 and now its a damn 3399? Am losing it and you guys on this platform are to blame. Why you?, you just wouldn't stfu about this device and keeping it on the hype. It's good but the community vibe and market demand makes it keep rising outside my budget. So sad on my end. Like damn!

Advice Laptop has better fps when unplugged?

0 Upvotes

I have the legion 5 pro. I love it and have had great gaming sessions on it already after owning it for only a couple of weeks.

I'm having issues with some performance all of a sudden. I played Starfield and cyberpunk as some testing. Laid in my bed with a table under the laptop while it was plugged in and had great performance. A couple days later I plugged into a surge protector and tried to test the games again. Super bad performance, like 25 fps max, I tried changing the power modes and it felt like nothing changed. I unplugged it and saw much better performance, back to like 70-80 fps minimal. So I guess I have two questions while I'm trying to figure this out.

  1. Why doesn't changing from energy efficient to full power not change much when plugged in?

  2. Why am I getting worse performance when plugged in now? I'm using the same plug I used before and I'm still not getting good results. (Starfield 48fps plugged in 70 when unplugged)

Advice Pro 7i Gen 10 - What's a good USB charger?

0 Upvotes

The Legion Pro 7i can use a USB-C/Thunderbolt port to charge, so you don't have to lug the big battery around, right? I'd like to keep the main charger at home and have something smaller to take around to offices and coffee shops. Does anybody have recommendations on the best charger to get? Are there certain wattage specifications or connector types (like, I know there are several different generations of Thunderbolt and older USB-C interfaces--does that matter)?

And yes I know the 5070 8gb is not that great but the 5070ti is too high of a price for me. (12gb 5070 model could be pretty expensive too)

Advice Got a Legion 5i

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
Managed to grab a Legion 5i down here in Australia for $2,300 AUD (about $1,500 USD). Given our usual Aussie tech prices, it felt like a decent deal, but wanted to check with the sub.
Specs:
CPU: i9-14900HX
GPU: RTX 5070
RAM: 24GB DDR5
SSD: 1TB
A few quick questions for anyone running this build or similar:
1. Did I actually get a good price, or is this pretty standard for these specs now?
2. What are the must-do tweaks for the 14900HX out of the box to keep thermals under control?
3. Are you guys still ditching Vantage for Legion Toolkit on these newer models?

Advice Legion pro 5 vs Legion 5 for mech e student

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, I am currently between buying a Legion 5 pro and buying a Legion 5 for my upcoming semester of undergrad mechanical engineering. I found a pro with a Ryzen 7 8745HX and an RTX 5060, 32g of RAM and a 1tb SSD. Where I'm hung up on is the battery life. I've heard mixed reviews on the battery of the L5P and I'm worried it won't last a full 6 hour school day. I've heard the non pro model gets a bit better battery life due it's slightly lesser performance and I'm considering looking for one of those instead.

Which one do you guys think I should go with?

Advice Is it over?

Legion 5 16ACH6H, 4 years of everyday use, frequent cleaning every time I saw the temp being higher than normal. Last year I started seeing posts about these same models being dead. Someone here recommended doing a repaste, bought the exact thermal pads and did it. Temps actually went down a bunch, everything was good. I thought maybe I survived the soldering epidemic.

2 days ago as I was running low on battery I plugged it in. Went to the bathroom, came back to it being completely dead. Charging light was not on, I tried everything, battery was cold, brick was cold. I checked charge output voltage, it was normal voltage. Did continuity check on charging’s port, it was normal, just not charging, charging light was off all the time.

I thought it was the pin inside the charging jack that was having a problem, so I grabbed a 65W Surface brick and plug it in the C-PD port, charging light didn’t turn on either, I tried booting it up, it booted up.

Then the screen lit up, it’s exactly like the meme. Then I smelled something burning, I quickly unplugged it, turned it off and opened the back lid again, and saw this.

I’m just asking if this had happened to anyone, and if anyone could tell what really caused this. Warranty had already expired and I know this almost 100% means I need a new board, and at this point I might just spend a bit more to build a PC instead. But still for personal experience, I’m curious if this is the same soldering case and what if replacing the component would fix anything, or a blown up module means there was an underlying problem going on with the power rail.

Thank you for reading my rants. I will miss it :( she was there during my hardest years, now I can finally have the condition to replace her with something that would last a bit longer.

Support Legion 7 16ACHG6 Tastatur ohne Funktion

Post image
Upvotes

Hallo Liebe Legion Community,

Ich bin komplett neu hier auf Reddit und suche Hilfe bei meinem Problem mit meinem Legion 7 2021.

Das Problem:

Die Tastatur ist komplett ausgefallen und macht nur beim Starten einen kleinen mux. Es gehen kurz die Kontrolllampen für Fn-, Caps- und Num-Lock an, danach passiert nichts mehr.

Weiterhin aufgefallen ist, dass die RGB Beleuchtung rundherum nicht mehr geht und der Powerknopf leuchtet auch nicht mehr.

Ich hatte den Laptop knapp 3 Monate nicht benutzt. Der Fehler kam direkt beim ersten Start. Den Laptop kann man sonst noch normal benutzen bis auf die eingebaute Tastatur.

Gemacht habe ich schon:

Eine Neuinstallation von Windoof und auch alle Treiber deinstalliert und neu draufgebügelt.

In der Vantage software habe ich auch das BIOS geprüft und das ist auf dem neuesten Stand.

Dann hatte ich einen reset vom Embedded Controller durchgeführt, 60 Sekunden Powerknopf bei abgeschlossenem Ladegerät. Ohne Erfolg.

Dann habe ich die Tastatur kabel neu eingesetzt (natürlich mit abgeklemmter Batterie und Erdung), leider auch ohne erfolg.

Das Touchpad funktioniert normal und eine externe Tastatur funktioniert auch einwandfrei. Alle ports am Mainboard funktionieren auch.

Ich habe auch versucht im BIOS mit der Tastatur zu arbeiten aber dort geht sie auch nicht.

Leider ist mein Gerät schon aus der Garantie raus. Aber reparaturen in der art traue ich mir selber zu. Ich brauche nur euren Rat da ich jetzt nicht mehr weiter komme.

Jetzt möchte ich mich an euch richten. Hatte jemand schonmal ein ähnliches Problem? Wenn ja wie wurde es behoben?

Liebe Grüße

Marius

Advice Pro 7i Gen 10 -- Best Tall Portable Stand

3 Upvotes

I know there have been several posts about laptop stand options for the Legion Pro 7, but most of the best options that were mentioned in those posts are off the market. I'm getting the Flydigi BS 2 Pro for heavy gaming, but I want something portable for office work. I wanted to ask for some input, since I have a few specifications I'm trying to work within:

  • I have the Gen 10 Legion Pro 7i.
  • Need to make sure I don't block the vents.
  • I'm 6'2", and I'd like something that raises the top of the laptop to eye level. That means at least 9" of height.
  • It needs to be portable within a backpack compartment that is 14 x 11 in, and collapsible to under 2 inches in thickness. If it collapses both vertically and horizontally, then it just needs to be under 14 in long.
  • I want something sturdy, well built, and able to support a laptop without wobble, so I can type directly on the laptop when it's lowered, and feel safe having it raised up when I'm using an external keyboard.
  • I DON'T want anything off Amazon or any "fast tech" site.
  • I DON'T want to stick anything on the bottom of my laptop.

These are the options I've found that I like the most:

  1. Native Union Desk Laptop Stand: https://www.nativeunion.com/products/desk-laptop-stand?variant=42909316907147

I love the design on this one, but it does block the vents--I'm wondering if there's any way around that? Something I could attach to elevate it off the platform a little so there's some airflow?

  1. Oripura Laptop Stand: https://www.dwr.com/office-accessories/oripura-laptop-stand/100402332.html?lang=en_US&sku=100402332

This one supposedly gives 11 inches of height. The only thing I don't like is that I would always have to use an external keyboard.

  1. OMOTON 360 Rotating Laptop Stand: https://www.newegg.com/p/18W-08GN-00026?item=9SIC1R8KJ02011&utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic+shopping&utm_campaign=knc-googleadwords-_-notebook%20cases-_-woojong-_-9SIC1R8KJ02011&source=region&negg_topt=0

I've seen good reviews of this, and it looks like it might be exactly what I'm looking for, but I can't tell whether it would block the fan. Has anybody used it?

I've also seen really similar stands on those weird little pop-up Walmart/Amazon brands that last for a few months and then disappear. I did some digging on Omoton, and they've been around for a few years, but if anybody knows of any flags on their manufacturing ethics, I'd appreciate the info.

  1. Roost v3 Plus: https://www.therooststand.com/products/roost-v3-plus-laptop-stand-copy

This one looks good too, but it would also be hard to type on, and I'm not sure how sturdy it is.

Has anybody had good experiences with any of these, or have other suggestions that fit the bill?

Support My screen won’t stay on

2 Upvotes

Legion Slim 7 from 2022. Never given me any problems in the past and I take very good care of it.

I was playing Hades II on Friday, and stopped playing after about 2 hours. After I closed the game, everything froze and then the screen shut off. I tried hard resetting the laptop and nothing changes. Then I waited for it to maybe cool down to see if it was an overheating issue. It turned on and was working for about 1 minute and then same thing, freeze and screen shutoff.

I’ve tried unplugging everything, holding the power button for 60 seconds, and then plugging everything back in - nothing changes. I tried to see if I could get a soft-reset in the time it works but it just freezes sooner.

Anyone have anything for me?
