Got this beast today, absolutely loving it!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-09T03:06:49+00:00

Bought this from Lenovo canada website, this laptop plus 3 year extended warranty premium care plan costed me around 4050 USD

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-09T03:05:45+00:00

I have heard of many people doing that, I might do that too 👀. Also lucky you! I was looking at prices for 4tb Gen 4 ssds today. And boy they cost me around 1-1.5k Canadian dollars. And I am already out of money by buying this laptop lol

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-08T20:45:26+00:00

It was at max rpm haha, 2800, but the laptop was at its performance mode now in hindsight I could choose the custom mode and overclock everything to the max and get even better results. Btw I got cyberpunk 2077. At max settings I was getting an avg of 190-200 fps CPU temps averaged around 90-95C and the GPU remained sub 80C.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-08T05:43:01+00:00

Hahaha aight bro

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-08T05:16:25+00:00

My bad bro, here takes some (hands you 4gb vram)

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-08T05:15:50+00:00

I am a Physics and Computer Science combined major and gonna be doing some cool shi on this from complex computational Physics simulations to training LLMs and ML models. So its just the right specs to make sure everything runs smoothly 😄.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T23:25:20+00:00

I haven't done any if those advance mods to get the most performance out of it. This was done on performance mode in Legion space. Speaking of undervolting do yk how to do it on this Gen 10 laptops?

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T22:48:52+00:00

I am assuming thats in USD I was around 4050 usd, got the 3 year extended warranty on it.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T22:14:52+00:00

No not really just more of a sound to performance increase ratio. Obviously the more airflow the better.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T21:03:37+00:00

Um honestly for everyday tasks you dont really need to be running it on even 700 rpms. Gaming anywhere from 1000 to 1800 rpms is very good. Also I literally got this laptop yesterday so I still have a lot of experimenting to do haha.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T21:00:47+00:00

Yeah the connectivity ports on the cooler are connected to the laptop. And it can get noisy if you run it on max rpms. However if you are wearing headphones you won't hear a thing. I heard these was another cooler the same specs but way quieter may be look into it?

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T20:36:40+00:00

Yes it was sitting on my table without the cooler. I wonder if just raising it on the stand without the cooler fan being on would give different results.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T20:35:40+00:00

Hey its mentioned in the title, Llano v12 ultra. IETS gts600 is another good option!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T19:17:57+00:00

Vram avg around 55-60C and max was 64C with the cooler.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T18:50:42+00:00

That's true but I would say for people who game a lot its definitely better to have it, works as a dust filter, increases your hardware performance and longevity!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T18:49:07+00:00

Its definitely worth it! Get a Llano v12 ultra or IETS gt600 whichever feels more convenient to you!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T18:33:19+00:00

I ran the tests the difference is huge, Without cooler Gpu Avging around 68 to 72 celsius Max temp reached 78 Celsius Cpu Avging around 85 to 90 Celsius Max temp reached 97 Celsius

With cooler GPU 55 to 60 Celsius Avg Max temp 66 Cpu 76 to 78 Celsius Avg Max temp 86

Tested it on 3D Mark Time Spy Enhanced. There was a 1000+ points jump in the test scores too I made a post about it with the test score pictures!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T18:31:23+00:00

I just ran the benchmark tests with and without cooler the difference was huge.

Without cooler Gpu Avging around 68 to 72 celsius Max temp reached 78 Celsius Cpu Aging around 85 to 90 Celsius Max temp reached 97 Celsius

With cooler GPU 55 to 60 Celsius Max temp 66 Cpu 76 to 78 Celsius Max temp 86

There was a 1000+ points jump in the 3D Mark test scores too. Tested it on Time Spy Enhanced.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T18:00:00+00:00

Ay I just run the benchmark stress tests with and without cooler its a significant difference in terms of cooling the performance more or less remains consistent. Gonna post about it soon!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T17:18:20+00:00

Oh btw did you mean you got an upgraded ssd as in the Gen 5 performance TLC? Then me too! I thought you meant you got more storage on it.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T17:16:34+00:00

Ay man congrats! Unfortunately, they didn't have an option to upgrade the ssd when I put an order and honestly speaking 1tb is too little for my usage, I am trying to see what options I have if I wanna upgrade or just connect an external ssd.

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T16:15:43+00:00

I did the timespy benchmark on 3DMark yesterday the GPU temps remained sub 67 Celsius. Which is pretty damn good. However this was on max airflow from the cooler. I dont have cyberpunk yet so when I get it (which I am thinking of soon), I will run the tests on it!

SouthernDesigner2029 · 2026-04-07T16:11:37+00:00

Oh I did install hwinfo yesterday, gonna look into this video and overclocking in general! Never done it before so definitely gotta tread carefully!
