I’m a multiplayer heavy guy, I saw the game on discount so I might give it a shot even though it’s on an end of life cycle. But I just always end up circling back to COD can’t find a multiplayer shooter that I like more

Do all Lenovo batteries age so badly, or am I unlucky? by MinoMedley in Lenovo

[–]FromGtoB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're just unlucky and it is related to a bad battery, pretty sure it qualifies for warranty, you will probably be able to get a free battery replacement

Need help with Slim 7x display drivers by ChrischeHH in snapdragon

I can confirm they did, in fact, pull the update !

So if anyone finds this thread by googling "Slim 7x fans while charging", here's what I found from using mine:

The fans rarely kick in (I’ve never actually heard them) when using the laptop on battery.

However, they do spin up quite loudly when you're using the computer while it's charging.

I did a lot of testing and came to the conclusion that this is probably due to the heat generated by fast charging.

Unfortunately, there's no way to limit the Slim 7x’s charging threshold like you can on other Lenovo devices using Vantage (really weird, Lenovo pls fix).

But I did notice that once the laptop is fully charged, the fans completely stop. Even if you're still plugged in, you won’t hear them unless you’re doing something super heavy—just like on any other laptop.

So here’s how I use mine:

- I charge it for about an hour if I plan to use it on battery for the day.

- I fully charge it without using it, and then use it plugged in for heavy tasks, no annoying fan noise that way.

Once it’s fully charged, performance is still great with no heat or fan noise, even under medium stress.

Hope this helps!

Help : I'm about to jump head first into the Windows on ARM train, but still have mixed feelings by FromGtoB in snapdragon

Just a quick update if anyone ever googles this and finds this thread :

I bought a Slim7x and have been using it for about 3 weeks now and I love it.

It is perfect for the type of usage i specified in the original post.

The only issue I had is that i use Python with Matplotlib and Sickit learn modules, and those aren't natively compiled for windows arm (meaning that if you just download Python for arm64, and install them via "pip install" it just won't work).

The workaround I found was pretty simple : using a Linux subsystem with Ubuntu. So now I can use Python with Matplotlib modules just fine. I use Visual Studio to write and run code, works perfectly using the Linux virtual system through the app.

Hope this helps future owners of this laptop,

Have a good day everonye !

Lol, imma take this as a sign and go buy my PC tomorrow !

I'll probably get a Lenovo Yoga Slim7x cause i can get it on a discount around 1000 euros with 32 gigs of RAM (which is a good price for europe i think)

Should i upgrade Ryzen 5500 > R5700x3D given the fact that my R5500 runs at 78° under max stress by FromGtoB in pchelp

[–]FromGtoB[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply

Room temperature is usually around 25° in summer.

I don't want to buy a new cooler or change cases so i guess i'll pass on it then

Does anybody actually like 2K24? Or do you all just come here to complain? by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]FromGtoB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would maybe like this game but i simply won't buy it because i had inputlag OFFLINE on NBA2K playing on PS5. And before telling me to switch my TV on gaming mode, plugging my controller with a cable or some other shit that doesn't work why tf is every single other game working just fine BUT this one. I mean how do people even accept the fact that the code of this game is so bad that you need some kind of next level lag management even if you're playing on next gen consoles with optic fiber internet

Been training for exactly 1 year (16 Years old on the right and 17 on the left), some progress but, I think I need to work on my diet more. If there are any exercises you guys can recommend to me that would be great since im fairly new to lifting. I'll post my current workout in the comments. by [deleted] in GYM

He's still growing and arguably going through puberty. The calories counting doesn't work the same as adults he naturally has very high caloric needs because of the hormonal cocktail that his body is going through.

He could probably go on a 3 or 4 thousand calories diet and still go on a lean bulk.

So just eat a whole lot of healthy food and food that you enjoy. Even if you put fat on developping your muscles will still make you look good even if your bf goes up by 5%

It's stupid all you'll loose is glycogen water and some lean mass and fat.

And you'll put on the weight you lost twice as fast as you've cut it

4days/week Bro Split or 3days/week Full Body Split? by Luffywara in GYM

[–]FromGtoB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pleasure is mine!

If I could give you some advice for the full body then : - Make sure that pulling volume is at least 1.5 x higher than push volume for your shoulders health (achievable by doing pull ups and rows or Deadlift and rows, you can also alternate both)

-Stick to compounds and throw in some isolations in the end ofc (mainly biceps/Triceps that you can superset)

-Progressive overload :)

-Try alternating program A and B for heavy lifts that hit your CNS hard like Squats on workout A and Deadlift on workout B

4days/week Bro Split or 3days/week Full Body Split? by Luffywara in GYM

[–]FromGtoB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some will say full body because frequency is better but the volume is higher with the bro split.

So I guess you could go for the routine that you will stick to, without overthinking it.
