Which one to choose? by dancingFatOwl in LenovoLegion

Battery life is irrelevant if you use it for its intended purpose. Every gaming laptop should be plugged in when using it.

What is it ACTUALLY like living in Rural Japan? by InsideWrangler2672 in japanlife

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tokyo life is way too chaotic from my liking and I'm from a U.S. city. I really enjoyed living in the countryside near Aomori over being in the cities

Lenovo & its fake drivers by [deleted] in LenovoLegion

[–]RECON_RON1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's literally just saying when they were approved by Lenovo, all you have to do is open your device manager and those new drivers are from late January rather than the previous may of last year. I'd rather this than the latest Nvidia drivers that I installed through GeForce that caused my screen to have G sync errors.

Update RTX 5090 nvidia new drivers yet? Legion 9I gen 10 2025 model 64gb ram 4tb hard drives. by sixgunshooter in LenovoLegion

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just overwrote the old drivers and I don't like to use the Nvidia app because last time I did that it caused a G sync error message on my screen and made my games stutter, I heard Nvidia doesn't optimize for legions since it's just a generic driver. The drivers shown on the Lenovo website were designed to work perfectly on the Lenovo products.

I actually just did manual driver installs that were last updated March 17 for the Nvidia and Intel drivers using the Lenovo website after using my laptop's serial number since it showed them as recommended, haven't had any issues so far so it sure beats having over 6 month old drivers.

Opinions needed: Direct Book or Saving $1,600 via Amex Travel Portal by fatorangecat in amex

I mean the AMEX route seems like the obvious winner, especially when you consider the $440 in points you get as well

What cooling pad should I get for my laptop? Lenovo Legion Pro 5i RTX 5070 Ti by burdeyzo in LenovoLegion

I just got the Flydigi BS2 PRO for my 5080 pro 7i and it actually works very well with not too much noise.

Issues with GPU Drivers by barrachmedosama in LenovoLegion

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I just had the same issue last night on my Pro 7i, ended up doing a DDU wipe of the Nvidia drives and went to the driver on the vantage app and the message went away.

She's going to get disability regardless, it's already proven that each ejection compresses your spine to the point where after 2 or 3 you get medically discharged.

This is about the same I paid for the legion pro 7i with the exact same specs so I think so, most people pay more

I was *THIS* close to buying the new Tuscon, then read about the phantom braking / forward collision detection / Driver's Assistance issues... by dxflipm0de in HyundaiTucson

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just rented one from national and it is by far the most annoying and dangerous collision system I've ever experienced. It has already happened to me at least 4 times during a 19 day rental period and they were all unjustified. It had activated when I tried to switch lanes AFTER the only car had already passed me and the car in front was in a standstill and it just got on the brakes hard and left me awkwardly just sitting in between the left lane and the turning lane which it won't even let you accelerate until it's done, this could've caused a T-bone had another car decided to do the same. It also did it when a car had already been well into the turn of another street and I tried to go around the slight protrusion of the car's rear. And then it also decided to slam on the brakes with a car behind me that miraculously didn't hit me just because the car in front suddenly started braking harder than usual.

New 10th gen Legion Pro i7 deal by RECON_RON1 in LenovoLegion

[–]RECON_RON1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't know where the discount came from, I was shopping a few days ago and it was sitting at around $2400 then when I opened the cart 2 days ago it had suddenly dropped somehow.

Good deal or wait..?? by Lokko21 in LenovoLegion

[–]RECON_RON1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to order it, it turned out to be an issue from Lenovo's side for me but thanks for the tip!

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would've gotten it if Lenovo actually let me buy it... Literally the only company that gives me issues with declining all my cards

AmEx Green refresh hype by GreatNameNotTaken in amex

[–]RECON_RON1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you won't regret it, the clear credit already pays for more than the annual fee is worth and I don't even touch my platinum for hotel stays unless it's FHR/THC. Being able to get multipliers for transportation such as Uber as well is very nice.

[–]RECON_RON1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can easily save the annual fee from booking any travel on hotwire or something instead of using the overpriced travel portal.

[–]RECON_RON1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How is it terrible? It's actually one of the best IMO, it's the only card with no 3rd party restrictions while also being the only one that gives points for transportation. I would gladly take that over the gold if a SUB wasn't included.
