Hey ! Thanks for the video ! One thing that got me worried is that you purchased Crucial DDR4-3200 but when you opened the task manager it says you got 32Go at 2933Mhz. On my Legion 5 I have 16Gb 3200Mhz and wouldn't want a downgrade to 2933 if I up the RAM to 32Gb using 2x16 DDR4-3200... Have you solved the issue ? or are you stuck to 2933 despite having DDR4-3200 installed ?
This helped me alot, didn't have confidence to take anything apart until I watched this, followed step by step and its worked perfectly. Thank you brother! Subscribed!
UPDATE.. Recently upgraded to the 80wh Battery as well. Flawless..... Everything was as expected due to your simple, yet informative, tutorial. The 32gig kit provided in the discription saved shopping time and worked flawlessly. Thanks again. You are much appreciated.
Your video saved me money! I almost took it somewhere but you made it look so easy so I did it myself. It was a little hard getting the back off even with the prying paddle but I did it. Removing the battery power supply was a little hard too but putting the ram in was so easy! Took me i think 15 min because I was being extremely careful since I have never done anything like this before. Thanks again!!
Wow! Interesting. I've been searching for specs info on the Legion 5 and all I found was that the max capacity was 16GB Ram, which I couldn't believe since it's considered for gaming. But you proved to me that indeed nowadays vendors don't even bother to share this information. The model I have is a Lenovo Legion 5 82B10052US but it should be the same thing since they're both Legion 5, still I wonder why the information provided is an incorrect one. But thanks to you I can be assured that I can happily upgrade my ram :) thank you!
@@Yeet-kc2lt yes i have that config it can go up to 64gb 2x32 and i think thats the limit, the limit of the ram depends on the cpu i think and u can search it on the internet
I read that lenovo wrote more then 16gb ram wouldnt bring a significant increase, because the mainboard doesnt sees any different if its more then 16gb. Maybe if you have 8gb ram and you upgrade to 16gb it would bring improvements. But i dont think when u upgrade from 16gb ram to 32gb or 62gb would bring any big improvements tho.
First time opening any sort of computer and can I just say that back cover was hell to get off, it wouldn't pop out for half an hour but everything was smooth once I got that open. Thank you so much for this video
I'm getting the Legion 5 (new) 82B5001XUS, which is a 2020 model, just for casual gaming, browsing etc. Thanks for the video. I got it for $699 which is a killer deal, imo. Because it comes with an SSD, and 1TB HDD, going to upgrade mine to just 16 gigs though. Has one 8 gig stick. I hear they last a lot longer than the competition, so I'm not worried about it being an older model.
Thanks for this, i'm typing on my newly upgraded laptop! I had the exact same upgrade as you, even down to the Crucial chips. While i had it open i took the opportunity to clean my fans with a toothbrush too. Very easy to follow, thanks again.
There's actually a setting in the BIOS (spam F1 and F2 at the startup screen) that disables the battery, if you do that you shouldn't need to disconnect it.
Thank you for the video. I've owned the 17ACH6H for a few years already, always running the basic 16GB of DDR4 (2 SOIC's) with which it came. My wife's newer Gigabyte laptop is being upgraded to 64GB, so I figured I'd max out my own Legion 5. I have a couple of comments... First, the 17" model of the Legion 5, although wider, only has 10 screws, and not 11 as did your 15" model. (Go figure.) There are 6 long ones and the same 4 short ones. Lastly, one needs to be very careful to replace the RAM SOICs' metal cover very "plumbly". I didn't get it exactly right and had one set of grabber finger contacts to both be OUTSIDE of the cover. So, it needed to be removed, that set of contact fingers slightly bent to realign them for proper "pinching" onto the shield wall and its little metal nipples. It then snapped down nicely to my great satisfaction. Once done, everything went back together nicely. Your RUclips video greatly minimized the fear factor of taking on this RAM upgrade.
@@GaugingGadgets yup I'm actually very happy about this. Speed was automatically downgraded to 2933, which is totally understandable its some kind of firmware stability thing.
@@SERGE_Tech Nope, it has nothing to do with stability. Most of RAM for gamers is sold not rated as native speed (JEDEC), but instead is reaching 3200 only with an overclocked XMP profile. On one hand XMP is an intel thing, so AMD is naming it another way. Second only desktop mainboards can overclock RAM, be it with intel's XMP, or AMD's equivalent thing. 100% of laptops can not overclock RAM. It is all a scam, so when we purchase for example the legion 5, we have to pay top dollar for more RAM from the vendor, instead of getting RAM later. If you do it blindly and don't know how to check in CPUZ, than yes you can upgrade up to 64gb, but it will run at the highest rated JEDEC profile speed for that particular RAM module. Pretty much noone, except for Kingston, publishes their JEDEC profiles for the RAM parts. Only with Kingston you can read and find out which RAM unit will have JEDEC profile for 3200 (in our case), with the rest of brands, you need to do trial and error. It took me hours to find which one would work for my legion 5. Now it runs the 16gb RAM @ 3200, but if I would have wanted 64gb it would also have been running at native JEDEC 3200 profile. The moral from the story, one has to read a lot instead of watching and making quick superficial videos. I have a question to the publisher of this video: Did you check in CPUZ at what speed your upgraded RAM is running? I am ready to bet it is most likely at 2666, or 2933, but certainly not at 3200. For the curious above I gave all the answers you need to make your lenovo legion 5 run its RAM at max (64gb) and at full speed (3200).
@@HardstuckFragger get 2 of these (for a total of 32gb), or 2 of the 8gb stick (for a total of 16GB), but from the same model, since those are guaranteed to support JEDEC @ 3200 MHz between the 2 sticks. Kingston ValueRAM 16GB 3200MHz DDR4 Non-ECC CL22 SODIMM 1Rx8 1.2V - KVR32S22S8/16
The best video and tutorial on how to open the bottom cover of this Laptop. Thanks a lot dude!You saving us some time and headache on that edgy part. ehhe
Saw a guy upgrade a laptop's memory, did everything like you showed, screwed it back together and... nothing. One of the memory chips was bad. He then explained that he always tests them out, before he screws the back on, except this time. And this was the time when he should have. Moral of the story? Check that the system works before you button it up. And if you are lucky, it will always seem like a waste of time.
Thank you for showing the importance of removing the battery before installing anything. I see so many youtubers not removing the battery in their vids, It's f*cking crazy!, one tiny little spark from the battery and your whole laptop could be DEAD.
I have the same laptop and I have almost completely used up all 8gb of ram that came with the laptop so thanks for the vid! Have you done one about upgrading the storage with it as well?
Thanks for sharing this video, I've just bought these through the link you supplied to Amazon 😊 Hoping to be able to run Star Citizen with this upgrade 🥳
Can you make a video on how to do the SSD as well? I have a 512gb laptop that I want to upgrade to a 1tb but don't know how to. This video was extremely helpful and I'm hoping you'll do one on the SSD (or however you call it, I'm actually pretty new to gaming laptops and I've never upgraded my storage before 😅)
Great vid! Is it okay to just keep the stock ram and use a different ram brand as long as their tthe same speed, voltage, etc? (i.e. stock ram + 8gb Crucial ram)
Yes! It’ll work even if you have different speeds, ram has no problem underclocking to match a slower stick (you may need to enter bios to underclock manually if it doesn’t automatically). Linus tech tips has a great video on mixing different brands and clocks of ram.
This was super helpful, thanks! I have a question about the speed the amazon link you posted says it can run at these "3200MHz or 2933MHz or 2666MHz" My Lenovo 5 is set up for 2933MHz, how would I go about adjusting that or should my system automatically compensate for this? Thanks!
Question I just looked at your 16 gig link I see that's for 2 8 gigs and what I'd like to know is can I just buy one 8 gig and add that to the stock 8 gig that came with my legion 5i or do I need to get the 2pack and replace
Hi, I've recently tried to upgrade my Lenovo Legion 5 15ACH6H ftom 8GB to 32GB using this tutorial. I purchased two 16GB RAM sticks and put them into the slots like you did. However, when I boot up my laptop, it recognises that there are RAM sticks in each slot, but only uses 4GB from each, meaning that my total installed physical memory is 8GB when it should be 32. Do you have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance :)
I've upgraded my RAM from 16GB to 32GB, and the speed on the old one was 3200mhz, and when I plugged the new ones in, it showed me that their speed is 2933mhz, keeping in mind that I bought the right ones. It's a crucial 16GB DDR4 3200 SODIMM CL22. I've been looking for ways to overclock the new RAMs so they could actually run at 3200mhz, but I haven't been able to so far. And my CPU is intel i7 11th gen. I'd really appreciate your help with this situation. Thank you.
Question: I want to have 16gb ram. If there is already an 8gb inside my legion 5, should I just buy 1 8gb stick and put it beside the 8gb stick that came inside my legion 5 or should I buy 2 new 8gb sticks?
Can you keep the original stick of ram and plug in another 8gb ram stick? If they're the same ram stick? Or what if they're different but both still 8gb?
figure it out yet 7 months later? I Just upgraded mine ... used a skinny flathead screwdriver to pry up everywhere FORWARD from the vents aka the front of the laptop, and then just with my slightly grown out fingernails, gripped into the sides of the vent area and just gently but firmly pulled/pry it up & away from laptop, and they popped off of the vent areas easier than expected...... 2021 Legion 5 17" version
I have questions as I have Legion 5 5600h RTX3050ti 8gb RAM: 1)Can i pair the new RAM with the old one, will this cause any issue? Because i just want to save cost and buy 1 stick only Or is one stick 16gbx1 is better?
Thank you sir. What about having teo different ddr’s. The manufactured that comes with the machine, and then another one? Does it work. It’s not cheap nowdays with pc components.

Can you keep the original stick of ram and plug in another 8gb ram stick? If they're the same ram stick? Or what if they're different but both still 8gb?
can i add more 8gb ram on the other ram slot to make the laptop 16gb?
This was an interesting video
Thank you king

How did you manage to open the laptop cover near the exhaust area? I’ve been struggling for an hour now
Same
figure it out yet 7 months later? I Just upgraded mine ... used a skinny flathead screwdriver to pry up everywhere FORWARD from the vents aka the front of the laptop, and then just with my slightly grown out fingernails, gripped into the sides of the vent area and just gently but firmly pulled/pry it up & away from laptop, and they popped off of the vent areas easier than expected...... 2021 Legion 5 17" version
@@Sir...... Yeah I got it a while ago, even forgot I wrote this comment, I just used a thinner guitar pick and it worked.
I have questions as I have Legion 5 5600h RTX3050ti 8gb RAM:
1)Can i pair the new RAM with the old one, will this cause any issue? Because i just want to save cost and buy 1 stick only
Or is one stick 16gbx1 is better?
Tanks man you are best
JUST ORDERED MY 32GB OF RAM FROM THE LINK YOU HAD IN THE DESCRIPTION!!

CANT WAIT FOR MY NEW RAM COMING THRUSDAY!!! 🔥💯
GOOOOOOD STUUUUFF!! ❤️🔥
Thank you sir.
What about having teo different ddr’s. The manufactured that comes with the machine, and then another one? Does it work. It’s not cheap nowdays with pc components.
Easy-peasy! Can't believe it was only $50 ot upgrade to 32gb.
Thanks a lot man 🙏🏾
thank you very much buddy!
