How does this laptop make more 21 fps in Witcher 3 and 18 fps in Far Cry 5 than legion 5 with 130W rtx 3060 and 5800H at 1080p ultra? is ryzen 7 4800h better than 5800h? Btw legion 5 has 300w power supply

I bought this laptop for about 2500 euros in my country. I ran linux and it works great. Windows 10 works find and gaming is no issue. The keyboard is not very good , sticky and really overall crappy. On my Alienware or Legion , keyboards are much better and thermal Too. I hit 100 degrees and throttled. This laptop isn't good

I'm so close to purchasing this laptop with the Ryzen 7 5800H. I'm a developer, not a gamer, and I'm praying that Linux will install on this bad boy without any  problems. I wish I could try the keyboard out before purchasing as I'm very particular about keyboards. On my previous gaming laptop (with a 6th gen core i7 and Nvidia 970m), I was able to get idle power consumption down to 10W (by completely powering down the 970m). Hope I can achieve similar on the Core 15.

How the heck is a 180W power adapter acceptable? They overdrew it by huge amounts with just a game. I had this same issue with my Eluktronics Thicc-15 with a 3900x and 2060. That exceeded it's whatever small 230/240w power adapter. Clevo/Sager, up your damn power supplies. I'd buy this laptop if they offered an acceptable power supply.

I am concerned with the power management. With power adapter rated as 180w, while gaming in full maximum setting such as the witcher that consume up to 240watts, doesnt this draining the battery instead of charging it? this will impose significant problems especially to the lifespan of the laptop.

It really is a mistery how laptops with no apparent flaws like this one can't score more than 85% here, yet bigger brands laptops with multiple dealbreaking issues score consistently higher

Exactly the same thought... I find this to be a high level notebook, especially for performance to price ratio, one of the highest I've seen here... The only reason to justify a lower score (but still not under 90 for me) is related to unavailability of Ryzen and RTX chips, but it's not a Schenker fault.

Wish you tested with the dynamic boost slider manually maxed out with 130w total.

115 watts to 130 watts = ~ 15% more TDP
Normally performance increase is far less than increase of TDP. So you should expect ~5% 'improvement'

Summarized for you:
Even more heat and noise than already at 115 watts.
Performance increase literally nothing. ;)
