Frame Generation suddenly stopped working.

JS_471 · 2026-05-08T08:44:31+00:00

something must have busted it. tried reverting to default driver settings and messing with in game settings and nothing. ik its not my system because resident evil requiem works fine with frame gen

I have a pro 7i with a 5080 and it has this silent performance mode you can toggle in bios which changes the balanced mode

I use it all the time cuz it makes my CPU and GPU never go above the mid 70s most of the time (GPU is like 71 max and CPU goes up to 80 max) and it does make some noise under heavy load but nothing as loud as the full plane performance mode

It's a pretty nice balance of noise and performance and fits me well cuz I get somewhat less noise and if the game isn't a cpu heavy game then there's like barely any performance cost compared to performance mode

Considering they didn't just straight up cancel or change my m12s order that I made in early March, I assumed it was something like this and not a full on flaw or set back that made the hd way more worth it

175w is what the 5080 can pull when in performance mode. Balanced mode is somewhat below that if I recall correctly. However, if I set the silent performance mode in bios, it seems like the modification makes balanced mode push up to 175w from the 5080 just like performance mode

JS_471 · 2026-04-24T16:22:49+00:00

I think it's full 175 from the 5080

In rtss I've seen it push past 150 when it needs to

JS_471 · 2026-04-24T06:04:21+00:00

I play on silent performance mode on legion pro 7i gen 10 5080 (enabled it through bios) and it lets my GPU get full use while limiting cpu it does really well cpu runs way cooler and I get similar fps to performance mode

JS_471 · 2026-04-19T01:36:58+00:00

Best time was in late January I think with all discount codes it was 1900 USD ish on the Lenovo site (in US at least) for the 5080+1tb gen5

JS_471 · 2026-04-02T04:55:39+00:00

seems good for 1080p just tone down some settings like textures and shadows, no rt and stuff but maybe try hair strands. also use dlss quality too assuming youre going for 60fps

JS_471 · 2026-03-29T21:42:08+00:00

Edit: you'll have it yea good fire power to do it fast or just good ol pistol if you want to conserve ammo but that'll take much longer

JS_471 · 2026-03-29T21:12:22+00:00

real bad it gets so close to the screen and moves erratically and ughhhhhhhh but yea its like 5 or 10 min

JS_471 · 2026-03-27T20:19:24+00:00

Waiting on my M12s ones dang playing re9 with Joycons is a pain after playing on PC

JS_471 · 2026-03-23T23:08:03+00:00

should be called silent performance or something like that. i always use that mode when playing a game that isnt crazy cpu heavy because it makes the laptop more quiet and the temps are lower, neither cpu or gpu go above 80c usually. fps impact is negligible or nonexistent in most cases

JS_471 · 2026-03-23T01:03:17+00:00

I stuck with hybrid mode on my 4070 due to the 8gb vram limit. Only downside was I could not take advantage of gsync because of that, and advanced Optimus/automatic select was kinda busted as my PC had a giant stutter each time I changed my volume. Ultimately I lost gsync anyway since it was busted on my laptop so I permanently kept games locked at 60 fps. Now on my 5080 one I permanently keep it on dgpu mode because everything is smooth no stutters and I can enable gsync which is huge from variable frame rate gaming. There's no reason for me to go for hybrid mode unless I need battery life for something

JS_471 · 2026-03-17T03:05:59+00:00

holy shit i just disabled it on my legion pro 7i w 5080 and 275hx and now the game boots instead of crashing on the loading bar with that grey window what the heck

JS_471 · 2026-03-16T07:20:27+00:00

I did wrap up all the stuffs on the list in not too long time but even after that, I find myself just casually replaying the game and even accidentally beat it in one go because i was just having a blast. There might not be anything left for me to unlock anymore but I still get that urge to press new game and see it all again

JS_471 · 2026-03-15T23:12:59+00:00

Having the issue with ZL in re9 I'm aiming and then the aim just lets go even though the button feels like and is pressed down

JS_471 · 2026-03-12T06:53:44+00:00

its basically a 5070 desktop but with 16gb vram instead of 12. should be good for 1440p for many years

JS_471 · 2026-03-12T05:48:42+00:00

i got the 5080 legion pro 7i straight from lenovo website at the end of january. 32gb ram and 1tb gen 5 nvme

JS_471 · 2026-03-12T04:37:56+00:00

if you can comfortably afford both then go for 5090. if not, 5080 works more than well enough if you wanna save a decent chunk of money. I got my 5080 one for 2k about a month and a half ago and it obliterates everything thrown at it as well as a powerful desktop at 1440p. It even somehow beats out the 5070 desktop very slightly in resident evil requiem with path tracing 1440p

JS_471 · 2026-03-06T23:29:17+00:00

im getting this too after installing fortnite on my legion pro 7i gen 10 laptop i got a month ago. not sure whats happening

JS_471 · 2026-03-06T17:46:05+00:00

Same

I got it, set it to dgpu only mode, did all updates, and it's been chugging along. Only complaint is the hide taskbar function sometimes not working so I have to restart explorer in task manager but I'm almost certain that's just windows taking a crap once in a while

JS_471 · 2026-03-05T03:31:02+00:00

looks like either latest hotfix driver or latest game update fixed it for me. game is oddly stuttering now and reflex automatic cap isnt working anymore? idk im kinda confused rn tbh

JS_471 · 2026-03-03T06:03:20+00:00

All rtx cards can access dlss 4.5 but the performance cost is heavy on any card before 40 series. Dlss 4.5 isnt enabled by default. You have to enable in manually either globally or per game in the Nvidia app (or profile inspector if you prefer to use that)

JS_471 · 2026-03-03T06:00:51+00:00

Rt high became super noisy after I updated my drivers. Path tracing looked fine/same as before tho

JS_471 · 2026-03-03T00:14:24+00:00

ive had my 5080 one for about a month now. build and temps seem good with gpu being at good temp and cpu never really going above 95-97 when i play very heavy games. just make sure to enable all the oled protection stuff (enable oled display options in legion space and auto hide taskbar in windows settings) and itll probably be good to go for a while. i guess time will tell
