Hi, on this site is Lenovo-Legion-5-15-G6-AMD test with rtx 3060...in three games like witcher is rtx 2060 almost as powerfull as rtx 3060. How is it possible?

I have a similar model, the only difference is a different screen refresh. Unfortunately, in my model, the battery is a failure. At best, the battery lasts 2 hours! If anyone has any idea - let me know.

You have to activate hybrid mode in the Lenovo Vantage software. It makes the Laptop use the internal GPU of the processor and deactivates the dedicated graphics card when not needed. More than doubles battery life.

How did you get up to 195w on power supply? i have this exact laptop with the same specs as yours and i have never gotten more than 85w while gaming. i play GTA V and Call of Duty Warzone.

Does anyone know if the video out via HDMI or USB-C is hard wired to nvidia or if we can use iGPU?
Need a silient laptop with external monitors connected.

You can actually undervolt them now with a insyde bios mod, very simple CMD commands! only guide is on discord tho.

i undervolt my 10300 and got -15 temps

Without the turbo boost I my temps never exceeded to 60c. I wonder what would be the temps if I could maintain it to 3.0 or 3.2ghz?

So, this Model has a 2020 refreshed variant of the rtx 2060, but lenovo put a 80w tdp instead if 115w the new version allows? But ut stills outperform the tuf a15 with ryzen 7 and 90w 2060 in games? Seems weird 🙄

Currently own the Legion 5 15IMH05 version.

- Nvidia GTX 1650ti
- Intel 5i 10300h
- 120Hz
- 16GB RAM
- 60Wh Battery



Sad that the undervolting option is locked for this version.

I am still able to run games without the turbo boost having only 60c temps max on any games but that limits the CPU speed to its default clock of 2.5ghz. With the Turbo Boost I get 4.2ghz but it would affect the Temp.

Is there a way to have it maintain on a 3.5hz only? I feel like this  clock speed should be a sweet spot for a decent tempt and performance for gaming.

I have the same laptop but with an RTX2060 and 144Hz. You can google tutorials in enabling undervolting on the Legion 5 which involves tinkering with the BIOS if you're comfortable with that. I managed to run a stable -150mv core and -75mv cache and the maximum temperature I got when running Cinebench R20 is 75C. If limited to 3.6Ghz on all 4 cores max I got was 71C. Only weird thing is it's power draw never exceeds 45-46w when running Cinebench, resulting in a 3.99Ghz boost on all 4 cores despite still having some headroom in temperatures. When running TS bench however it can run it's full 4.2GHz without power and thermal throttling

Amazon DE sells the Legion 5 for EUR1199 (EUR979 Flashdeal) with:
- Ryzen 7 4800H
- RTX 2060
- 120Hz display, 250cd/m²
- 16GB
- 512GB
- 60Wh battery

CampusPoint (needs German student ID) sells it for EUR1079 with:
- Ryzen 7 4800H
- RTX 2060
- 144Hz display, 300cd/m² much more colour accurate
- 16GB
- 512GB
- 80Wh battery
- RGB keyboard, 4 zone

u know their rating system is miserable. They just have to come away with a new idea. i came just to read the write up, which is great as usual. Top 10 laptop in gaming category is never reliable imo.

You have to review AMD version with 144hz display (90+ sRGB) and 80wh battery.
This configuration would definitely get high score.  8)

Any chance of a review of the AMD variant? That seems to be the more interesting one, as Renoir laptops aren't that widespread yet.  Of course, while Lenovo claims (depending on which country's product page you look at) RTX 2060 would be available later, it appears to not be available anywhere yet.
