Reduce amount of noise the only way to enjoy any games would be to use headphones all the time, otherwise I cannot imagine not getting irritated after 10 minutes of doing anything
@@ashinshaji2597 it’s been great! I mainly play in 1440p and keeps the settings between medium and high. I easily get over 60fps on most games. If it’s a competitive shooter, I’ll lower the settings for higher fps. If it’s a single player campaign like last of us, I go for higher fidelity. I don’t need 100fps to play that kind of game. The RTX4060 has been a good graphics card. It’s a maxed powered 140W TDP as well. You get every ounce of performance with this unit. I really enjoy the power efficiency. It keeps the laptop not too hot. One the last thing I’ll mention, the laptop has amazing thermals. It has never thermal throttled or overheated. Most games hover between 75-80 for me and sometimes, rarely do I see 90 like some other laptops. Overall I been really happy with it. I don’t plan to upgrade anytime soon. At least for the next 3-5yrs to be honest. I definitely recommend it to anyone!
Awesome tests, thx a lot for your work! If there was a dilemma which one from 5 slim or 5 pro (4060 AMD both) to pick for silent/balanced 90% home usage what will you choose? Is there any differences in build quality and GPU performance?
Thanks for this. Between this and the slim 7i with basically the same specs, do you think the build quality and the brighter screen on the 7i is worth about $200 US more? I have a bit of a bright living room so I'm wondering if the extra nits will make the difference.
Personally I’d pay the extra $200 for the screen and premium feature of the legion slim 7i. It’s the nicest laptop I’ve touched this year, zero contest
My brother gifted me this laptop after I helped him build his PC. Not an ounce of gooch on it and he took great care of it. and I hope to do the same. It's frankly funny because within my first week of owning this laptop, I have not really played anything demanding except when my brother showed me Cyberpunk 2077 running on high as a means to showcase performance to me. I've been using it as a drawing station instead.

Can you please tell exact settings used for RDR2. It will be very helpful. Like what setting on Ultra what on med. Can you try running the game in HUB optimised settings and how much fps you get can you share
What's the difference between LOQ and Slim? I understand that Legion is the premium one and the other two are budget right? So is there any reason to get Slim instead of LOQ is LOQ is cheaper?
The loq uses lower tier GPUs in the 15”. In the 16” there actually isn’t a huge price difference. Typically a little bit less cooling and a bit more plastic. Both are pretty good to be honest

Hi! Can you suggest which laptop to go with? Asus G14 2022 (Ryzen 9 6900HS + 6800S) or the Lenovo Legion 5 Slim (Ryzen 7 7840HS + RTX 4060)? I'd love to take the asus, but is the heat issue so serious? I love to play games such as Valorant and Watch Dogs and games like COD. Also I work on other tasks like running other VMs... Which one would you suggest me to take?
I had both. They are quite different. Benefits of each: Legion: bigger chassis, so it runs much cooler. You are able to run the 4060 at lower wattage and it will still perform very well (meaning less noise and heat). The cpu on the legion is the best cpu of 2023 in my opinion. The ram is upgradeable with two sticks. It also has dual nvme slots. The screen is way bigger and it has a better keyboard. Asus: it’s smaller. The amd 6800s should perform somewhat similar to the 4060 but will need more heat and watts to get there. In short if portability and size is king, the g14 is still a very compelling option. I like the g14 quite a bit. But if you are okay with 16”, the legion sweeps
Hi, was wondering what the expected battery life of an Legion Slim 5 (16", Gen 8) AMD with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 and an AMD Ryzen7 7840HS Processor (3.80 GHz up to 5.10 GHz) would be for casual use? thanks in advance for replying

@@TechGuyBeau listen, can you advise what is better to choose: rig strix g16 (full hd+, 250nit 7ms, rtx 4060 140w, i7-13650hx) or Lenovo legion slim 5 (2k+, 300nit, rtx 4060 125w, i7-13700h). In my country they cost the same, but I'm afraid that in the future it will be difficult to 4060 at 2k+ resolution and I will have to reduce the resolution to 1080p, where there will be a bad picture. And is there any practical difference between 4060 140 watts and 4060 125 watts?
There is no practical differences between a 140w and a 125W 4060, JarrodTech and other RUclipsrs have shown that, beyond 100W the performance is the same for the 4060 and 4070. Regarding the 2 choices I'll go with the Legion, it is literally more for the same price so don't choose the worst option just because the worst screen is easier to run
How did you get 60 ish degrees on your 4060? I have the same slim 5 but with 4070 and on Balanced mode and all settings on maximum with DLSS my Slim 5 can give me 75-78 degrees. Just how? When I lock the FPS, I can get solid 71-72 degrees
Ghosting on that panel. If ur not playing competitive games it’s perfect but if ur doing competitive the screen is where it suffers I had it for 2 days

@@TechGuyBeau alright thanks Was looking to buy a creator laptop under 1400 CAD so got to ask that thing though, Well do you have any suggestions under creater laptop category
@@Roshan-M7 Lenovo prices on their own webstore is often higher than in any other store, so look at your local electronics store to see current price and possible deals.

i got the same model's rtx 4070 version. in balanced with no dlss i got around 50 and 60 fps in rdr2. in performance it was around 65 and 70 and gpu temp was hitting 86-87 constantly and battery kept draining while plugged non stop in performance mode. so i gave it to service and have not heard from them since. i feel like a joke since you are getting these numbers with the 4060 version. what do you think about this situation? thank you.
@@mashfiqhossainalvi4935 thats why its there. But it only works if you use balanced mode. And for it to be enabled you need to check the box for it in Lenovo Vantage. So if you dont want to use it, dont check the box. But in any case enabled or disabled, its nothing that will hurt the computers performance. =)
@@sabagamer3052 excellent. Now I’m no specialist with the stuff, consider checking out the legion discord and ask around. Lots of people there have done applications of the stuff
@@sabagamer3052 boosting is typically used for short intervals of intense processing. Problem is: in gaming it will just keep boosting on and off, getting super hot. I disable turbo boosting in power settings typically on my gaming machines. You might even see a performance INCREASE in theory, if you are able to avoid thermal throttling
I have a legion slim 5 (7435HS + 4060 + 16 GB single stick - not Dual channel). I tried the same settings you had in Jedi Survivor and i am no way near to the performance you are getting. Following are the numbers. - On 1600P, No scaling, FG off, balanced mode and medium settings - 36-37 FPS - On 1600P, FG off, balanced mode and Quality DLSS/FSR - 46-47 FPS - Increasing to performance mode, increases the GPU utilization a bit but the perfomance gap is not that huge. Even the 1% Lows are lower in my machine. For me, the saving grace is FG. if i turn that on, the game performance is smooth In some of the settings the GPU usage is not 100% but VRAM utilization is more than what you showed here.. I am sure what is the bottleneck.. Could it be single channel ram or processer.. I thought 7840HS and 7435 are more or less similar except the iGPU.. Could it be an issue with my device.. any suggestions would be welcome
7435 is based on Zen 3, and 7840 on Zen 4. The difference in CPU performance on single core is around 20% if benchmarks are considered so ye, definitely bottlenecked by CPU. And I think single stick Ram could be an issue but if it's DDR5, I'm not sure it matters much because DDR5 by itself runs on dual channel
@@asp2410i agree that 7435 will have some performance hit but i saw a lot of comparisons where the fps impact between the two CPUs was only like 2-3%. Both CPU and GPU are able to handle the higher level of setting and their utilization is fine but as soon as i decrease setting a bit , i don’t see fps improvement instead gpu usage goes down instead of increase in FPS.. its just weird. As for Ram, i ordered another 16gb so that issues should not come anymore. Lets see
@@informationtechnology5098 I see, hmm.. the GPU usage decrease is weird tho, lowering settings should help with fps immediately too.. how about changing some settings in Nvidia Control panel? There's a power setting in Nvidia which you can change to "Prefer Max performance", i remember changing it because many people said so, it's set to default, maybe that could help? There's a lot more settings you can tweak to get the best out, so do check it. I assume you already have lastest drivers and have set windows battery option to best performance mode so there's nothing else that comes to mind
@@asp2410 Thanks for the suggestion. I am using the latest drivers and windows and other programs are updated as well. I just tried Max power setting on Jedi survivor but it did not help. I also used Hwinfo and did not notice anything throttling. Physical memory usage was around 97% so that might be a factor. Also, i notice a lor of 1%, 0.1% lows causing issues. By lowering settings, i was able to get 70+ FPS on Jedi Survivor but the 1% lows were around 15 FPS and 0.1%
One more thing.. 4060 is not consistently holding 90+w. Sometimes it goes to 100W and then comes down to 50-60w (Temps are excellent around 60C). i think if it will remain consistently around 80-90W, the 1% and 0.1% lows will be better. In this video, i see 4060 holding a consistent 80W +- 5 w on balanced adn nearly 110W on performance which is giving a very consisent result. Not sure why that is not happenign in my system
@@TechGuyBeau Should I get the Legion Slim 5 (16GB DDR5-5600MHz (SODIMM) - (2 x 8 GB), 1 TB SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6) Or The Legion Slim 7 (32 GB DDR5-5600MHz (16 GB Soldered + 16 GB SODIMM), 1 TB SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4060 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6) ?????

Bro showed everything in msi afterburner except cpu temps but using Hinfo or whatever its name to see how much temps and wattage is the cpu , like WTF?
Msi afterburner doesn’t have the 7840hs. It’s a brand new cpu that wasn’t recognized, or the sensors. Sometimes afterburner doesn’t allow for monitoring of many parts of a system component. FYI. Hence showing it in hwinfo

can you test god of war and jedi survivor on the gen 7 legion slim 7?
I did already. Separate video
Can you do minecraft java with this laptop please?
I’m sorry I don’t have it anymore, but I actually did test Minecraft. Java ran perfectly. Heck I even got Minecraft RTX running very well
Do you have Fortnite tested on this graphics card/model? Thank you
No but it will run fine. Fortnight isn’t hard to run
Hi bro which is one better , asus g14 2023 or slim 5 16inch laptop
The 16” is more powerful and better cooled. But it’s also much larger. If size doesn’t matter get the slim.
If portability is key get the g14
is it 16inch?
Yes it is
can u do this for last of us 1
i have a question is there any way to disable the LA1 Ai chip that lenovo has embedded in the motherboard?
why would you like to disable it, its a dedicated chip that does not draw any performance from the computer, hence the added LA1 AI chip.
@@Brissebrajan yeah true i should not disable it it should automatically improve my laptops performance
@@mashfiqhossainalvi4935 thats why its there. But it only works if you use balanced mode. And for it to be enabled you need to check the box for it in Lenovo Vantage. So if you dont want to use it, dont check the box. But in any case enabled or disabled, its nothing that will hurt the computers performance. =)
@@Brissebrajan thank u for the information
Something must be wrong with mine,in performance mode cyberpunk my cpu is almost constant 100 c and 86c on gpu
Check cpu boosting in windows
@@TechGuyBeau yea it does boost,but without boost it remains very chill normal right?
@@TechGuyBeau i actually ordered some new ptm already
@@sabagamer3052 excellent. Now I’m no specialist with the stuff, consider checking out the legion discord and ask around. Lots of people there have done applications of the stuff
@@sabagamer3052 boosting is typically used for short intervals of intense processing. Problem is: in gaming it will just keep boosting on and off, getting super hot.
I disable turbo boosting in power settings typically on my gaming machines. You might even see a performance INCREASE in theory, if you are able to avoid thermal throttling
I have a legion slim 5 (7435HS + 4060 + 16 GB single stick - not Dual channel). I tried the same settings you had in Jedi Survivor and i am no way near to the performance you are getting. Following are the numbers.
- On 1600P, No scaling, FG off, balanced mode and medium settings - 36-37 FPS
- On 1600P, FG off, balanced mode and Quality DLSS/FSR - 46-47 FPS
- Increasing to performance mode, increases the GPU utilization a bit but the perfomance gap is not that huge. Even the 1% Lows are lower in my machine. For me, the saving grace is FG. if i turn that on, the game performance is smooth
In some of the settings the GPU usage is not 100% but VRAM utilization is more than what you showed here.. I am sure what is the bottleneck.. Could it be single channel ram or processer.. I thought 7840HS and 7435 are more or less similar except the iGPU.. Could it be an issue with my device.. any suggestions would be welcome
7435 is based on Zen 3, and 7840 on Zen 4. The difference in CPU performance on single core is around 20% if benchmarks are considered so ye, definitely bottlenecked by CPU. And I think single stick Ram could be an issue but if it's DDR5, I'm not sure it matters much because DDR5 by itself runs on dual channel
@@asp2410i agree that 7435 will have some performance hit but i saw a lot of comparisons where the fps impact between the two CPUs was only like 2-3%. Both CPU and GPU are able to handle the higher level of setting and their utilization is fine but as soon as i decrease setting a bit , i don’t see fps improvement instead gpu usage goes down instead of increase in FPS.. its just weird. As for Ram, i ordered another 16gb so that issues should not come anymore. Lets see
@@informationtechnology5098 I see, hmm.. the GPU usage decrease is weird tho, lowering settings should help with fps immediately too.. how about changing some settings in Nvidia Control panel? There's a power setting in Nvidia which you can change to "Prefer Max performance", i remember changing it because many people said so, it's set to default, maybe that could help? There's a lot more settings you can tweak to get the best out, so do check it.
I assume you already have lastest drivers and have set windows battery option to best performance mode so there's nothing else that comes to mind
@@asp2410 Thanks for the suggestion. I am using the latest drivers and windows and other programs are updated as well. I just tried Max power setting on Jedi survivor but it did not help. I also used Hwinfo and did not notice anything throttling. Physical memory usage was around 97% so that might be a factor. Also, i notice a lor of 1%, 0.1% lows causing issues. By lowering settings, i was able to get 70+ FPS on Jedi Survivor but the 1% lows were around 15 FPS and 0.1%
One more thing.. 4060 is not consistently holding 90+w. Sometimes it goes to 100W and then comes down to 50-60w (Temps are excellent around 60C). i think if it will remain consistently around 80-90W, the 1% and 0.1% lows will be better. In this video, i see 4060 holding a consistent 80W +- 5 w on balanced adn nearly 110W on performance which is giving a very consisent result. Not sure why that is not happenign in my system
This or Slim 7 ???
Depends on price
@@TechGuyBeau Should I get the Legion Slim 5 (16GB DDR5-5600MHz (SODIMM) - (2 x 8 GB), 1 TB SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4070 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6)
Or
The Legion Slim 7 (32 GB DDR5-5600MHz (16 GB Soldered + 16 GB SODIMM), 1 TB SSD, NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 4060 Laptop GPU 8GB GDDR6) ?????
I can’t decide between both… (considering the material and look of the 7)… can you give me your honestly opinion since you understand more about it?! Please! 🙏🏼🥹
(Prices are pretty much the same, so doesn’t matter there for me) ☺️
@@NathalieWinchester prices the same, get the slim 7. It’s very premium. The difference between 4060 and 4070 is negligible, but the quality boost of 5 to 7 is considerable

Please do call of duty and gta
Bro showed everything in msi afterburner except cpu temps but using Hinfo or whatever its name to see how much temps and wattage is the cpu , like WTF?
Msi afterburner doesn’t have the 7840hs. It’s a brand new cpu that wasn’t recognized, or the sensors.
Sometimes afterburner doesn’t allow for monitoring of many parts of a system component. FYI.
Hence showing it in hwinfo
Those fans wtf
Avoid this laptop as i had order one and only had issue with it, crackling noise, whisteling, slow boot time, fans randomly start in sleep mode and more 😂
I send it back and i m looking at other laptops atm.
Please do valorent gameplay 😊
