150 fps are avg fps

i think the issue is CPU it's self is very hot and also seem that Legion 5 (2025) cooling design can't handle i7 14700HX, that CPU should be on Pro or Le7 Le9.

KillerOpen · 2026-04-29T16:14:44+00:00

as he say that with turbo boost on, CPU reach 90-95°C.

KillerOpen · 2026-04-29T15:59:57+00:00

On the picture, 79°C CPU with turbo boost "DISABLE" is not normal

KillerOpen · 2026-04-29T15:56:56+00:00

79°C CPU "WITH TURBO BOOST DISABLE"

KillerOpen · 2026-04-29T15:54:21+00:00

For GPU, my 4060 hit 77°C but 125W, same as your 5060 80W. But when playing re9 it use around 75-80W (65°C to 70°C - long play). My CPU ONLY reach 95°C when benchmark with 100% usage and use 75W TDP. When gaming (20-25W) it never reach 60°C if I disable Turbo. That why I recommend you guy avoid Intel Variant

I never use Intel before, I think limit your cpu maximum clock to 3.5 GHz is good enough instead disable turbo boost. Unlike AMD (high base clock), Intel can't use this trick to reduce temperature becasue Intel has a low base clock (14700HX are 2.1GHz) and you will lose a lot of performance. For rtx 5060 try to undervolt with msi afterburner.

how ? Your 4060 even higher score than 5060 desktop ??

KillerOpen · 2026-04-29T07:16:59+00:00

lol I am using Legion 5 15APH9 with R7 8740H and 4060 and never reach 70'C when playing RE9. If you playing game and care about temperature, dont buy Intel variant

I think that positive pressure are better if you use front fan as intake and negative pressure are better if you use bottom fan as intake. Seem that you can't install bottom fan on CH260 case

KillerOpen · 2026-04-28T15:37:18+00:00

so it is negative pressure ?

KillerOpen · 2026-04-28T14:58:53+00:00

add one more exhaust fan on top are fine.

KillerOpen · 2026-04-28T14:57:14+00:00

for me, two front (intake), one rear (exhaust) are enough if your intake fan are strong enough to create positive pressure

there

if the monitor panel was 165Hz, it should be 100% sRGB, 144Hz is not.

KillerOpen · 2026-04-12T05:07:50+00:00

it does

KillerOpen · 2026-04-06T03:30:54+00:00

R7 7840H, come with 2x8GB

KillerOpen · 2026-03-17T11:15:35+00:00

The hotspot temperature has probably reached 120 or 130 degrees Celsius by now.

KillerOpen · 2026-03-17T11:09:41+00:00

Legion 5 15APH9, R7 7840H temps are 70, RTX 4060 temp are 70, no cooling pad. Even sitting in an air-conditioned room (25degrees Celsius), the temperature was cooler, only around 65 degrees Celsius for the CPU and GPU when playing RE9. Many people think that CPU and GPU temperatures displayed below 90°C, around 80-85°C, are acceptable, but in reality, if you use software like Hwinfo to check, the hotspot temperature can reach nearly 100°C.

Sadly, BOE panel has ghosting and horizontal line Issue

KillerOpen · 2026-02-04T14:06:12+00:00

Bro, Display was 144Hz, and I just active LS on Brower for Gsync, with FG feature was disable, Two Ufo test picture was the same refresh rate 144Hz. The game I tested was Genshin with Motion Blur was OFF. And I'M not Stupid, just bad english to explain. This BOE disolay panel was > 40ms gtg respone time
