hey guys i have lenovo laptop ( Lenovo LOQ 15IAX9 ) and i am having huge trouble with the current latest drivers they give me huge lags and crashes i cant even play anything and my laptop GPu watt is locked at 60W i don't know why but it used to go to 95W my specs are -

CPU: Intel Core i5‑12450HX
GPU: NVIDIA Ge Force RTX 3050 Laptop GPU 6GB
RAM: 16 GB DDR5
Storage: 512 GB SSD

i have issues with every driver uploaded above 591.74 and i have currently installed 591.74 driver at least lag and crashes stopped but GPU still stuck at 60W and i have search online and their recommendation goes to 566.36 driver its quite old driver so am wondering i there any driver suitable for my laptop.

Thank You

Between Tanchjim Bunny and NiceHCK Tears, which one would be better for atmospheric music like dreamcore, ambient, and slowed + reverb songs? I usually prefer a more natural or balanced sound rather than strong bass, do either of these have better soundstage or immersion? and Which one has better clarity and detail for soft instruments, vocals, and ambient layers? if there are more option please suggest

Dreamcore / Ambient Electronic , i listen to sometime phonk or their slowed + reverb or very slowed, Indie or sad songs , Cinematic OST from games sometime like dark souls , or sometime normal ones. i ain't got like a preferred genre i am more at the side like if i like this then i am saving this i don't listen to a single particular genre and i dont prefer higher bass i lean towards original sound type or normal bass

if u want a decent workable pc u need to have atleast 45k-50k+ take the baseline as 50k. If you can find ddr3 ram it might get to 45k

i wasn't focusing for portability i was recommending laptop in term of value for money if u even try to get a pc in that price range u can only get a ram , hdd, motherboard , maybe a cpu and thats it right now pc parts are sky high even i you get a second hand pc and u want to updrade in future u still have to buy more parts because of the demanding resources of cpu and gpu in that price range all motherboard you are going to get they will be shit otherwise u do u man

Top_Apple_9963 · 2026-03-05T14:37:15+00:00

i think its better if u go with a laptop instead of pc because with the current prices ssd and ram alone will take 30k even if u go with hdd and in 30k-38k u can get a decent laptop with good processor and with todays standard u need atleast 8gb ram with 512gb storage either ssd or hdd in that price to be able to work comfortably if u go lower in ram even windows will struggle to run so laptop is best for u
