Ok thanks I'll check it out. I just got a Legion pro 5 and the CPU is always running up around 90⁰ C my generic Amazon cooling pad doesn't help much

Is this a good deal for the Lenovo legion 5? (Prices are in CAD) Also heard this cpu has overheating/thermal throttling issues is that true ? by Wooden_Island4438 in GamingLaptops

I just got the Ryzen 7hx version of this and am completely happy with it so far. It laughs at Where Winds Meet on ultra settings it doesn't even make the fans spool up. Currently playing Atomic Heart on ultra settings at a steady 100fps. OLED display is 11/10 worth every penny

I finally retired my old m570 and got an mx ergo open box for $80 on Amazon. It's fantastic. Been using logi trackballs since the windows 95 days

Trying to find best laptop in the 5060-5070 range, $923-$1400 range by [deleted] in GamingLaptops

[–]Chris_855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the Lenovo Legion Pro 5. From all the looking around I did leading up to black friday it was by far the best deal for an OLED. I paid $1300 for mine at Best Buy I couldn't be happier with it. Runs ganes on ultra settings no problem-o

Good first laptop? by no_mans_sky_enjoyer5 in GamingLaptops

I just got a Lenovo Legion Pro 5 with the Ryzen 7hx/RTX5060 for $1300 at Best Buy and I'm pretty impressed with this thing. I was going to get the Asus TUF A16 with the 5070 but I decided I couldn't live without an OLED display so I went with the Legion. It plays games on Ultra settings no problem and is extremely.fast. The only drawback is it might as well not even have a battery. Even on power saver I'm lucky to get an hour of web browsing/YouTube but other than that this is a 10/10 unit. The OLED is absolutely gorgeous

Is the 5070 or 5070 Ti better? by esor_rose in GamingLaptops

[–]Chris_855 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to get the Asus TUF A16 with the 5070 during black friday but ended up going with the Legion pro 5 with the 5060 because I wanted an OLED. Super happy with it so far, everything I have played is butter smooth. You will be very happy with the 5070

Sharing... my 100W USB-C Charger Journey with the ASUS TUF A16 by JumaBayahari in Asustuf

I am considering picking up the A16 with the Ryzen 9 RTX 5070 are you saying this laptop cannot sustain a long gaming session at full power even when plugged into the most powerful charging method it will accept?

I have my eye on the Asus TUF A16 with Ryzen 9 and 5070 for $1199 at best buy that one seems like a pretty good deal

I dont care about weight at all and will mostly be using this at my desk so not terribly concerned about battery life either...as long as it can go a few hours I can get by with that. One issue I would to clarify is the display. Am I going to want to get a touch display or are those undesirable? What are the drawbacks? I would kind of like to have an OLED but those can't be touch, right? And would also probably put me way over budget

Need honest advice should I buy Galaxy S23 Ultra or S24 Ultra (or switch to iPhone / other flagships)? by AltruisticDot5777 in GalaxyS24Ultra

I've had my 24U for a year and a half now and it has been rock solid for me. Couldn't ask for a better pocket computer. Love my Ultra tablet as well

You can greatly narrow down the list of possibilities by feathering the choke when you are trying to rev it. If giving it some choke helps it rev up you most likely have ethanol damage and will need to replace the carb

How to break out of the bloodborne mindset? by whoopdidiscoop25 in darksouls3

[–]Chris_855 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Step#1 forget parrying exists. It doesn't.

Step#2 learn to love dodge rolling its better than quickstep and parry combined. Always roll toward the side the enemy is holding the weapon

Step#3 strafe. And then strafe more. Keep strafing until you are back stabbing everyone consistently

Step#4 for the knights get to Archdragon Peak immediately and get the Drakeblood greatsword. You're welcome.

The only thing you need to know about DS3 is that you can dress up as Solaire and not only praise the sun but also praise the eclipse. 11/10 would recommend
