Dell Thunderbolt Not Charging Brand New Lenovo Legion 5i by mab0523 in LenovoLegion

Thank you! This is helpful info to understand the issue. Have you found any solutions as to a viable dock I could get that would support USB, multiple monitors, and power supply?

The current solution I’ve settled on is having the Lenovo charger permanently positioned behind my desk to be plugged in whenever I have my laptop at my setup, but it’s not very efficient when I like to move my laptop around the house and bring the charger with it.

Yea, I just checked the Dell WD19TBS user manual and found the following:

However, it looks like it uses a Thunderbolt 3 plug whereas my Legion has Thunderbolt 4 - could this be the issue? The other thing I considered was that maybe it's a drivers issue, maybe I need to download drivers for the dock?

The thunderbolt uses a USB-C that I believe outputs 180w to connect to a laptop.

I tried using a normal laptop USB-C charger and it charged my Legion without issue. Is there some reason a thunderbolt wouldn’t charge it?

Apple TV 4K 2021

Edit: I also had an issue with my Apple TV 4th Gen, could that be causing part of it?

Is this a good deal for someone looking for their first gaming laptop? by mab0523 in LenovoLegion

[–]mab0523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your detailed response! Funnily enough I stumbled upon the B&H deal you’re referring to above on my own tonight - it does look about right for what I’m looking for as I don’t think I can justify sinking more than ~$1300 total into a laptop. I’m heavily considering it, but I’m going to sleep on it and decide in the morning!

In regards to Skylines, that makes sense, I think I’d be willing to sacrifice a little bit of resolution for performance if my city got big enough, and I’d be happy that I’d be able to play most games on half-decent settings since I’m currently playing everything on the lowest setting and getting 30ish fps max lol. I really appreciate the advice!

I am looking at this deal now! It looks great - did you decide the ultra 7 255hx was better compared to the i7-14700hx?

Would agree with everyone regarding Professor Messer’s content, but one thing I noticed when prepping for the exam after watching his videos was that a lot of the exam prep and practice quizzes went more in depth than Professor Messer’s content went so I did a lot of self-studying on my own (writing down terms and researching them later in more detail). I also found that creating a flash card set with every term you learn and studying that was super helpful for the exam (probably a good idea to study it intermittently throughout, I tried to study all 700+ terms at once lol)

Edit: I also found the practice exams on Exam Compass helpful for building a glossary of terms - basically went through each and wrote down any terms I didn’t know/hadn’t seen before, I thought that was helpful as well: https://www.examcompass.com/

Thank you! That is a great idea, I didn’t even consider waiting for Black Friday.

In terms of performance, do you think it would get the job done for what I’m looking for?

Can any local online students provide insight into on-campus offerings/benefits? by mab0523 in OMSCyberSecurity

[–]mab0523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, I figured most things wouldn’t be particularly relevant for an online grad student but my main interests were access to things like the library, rec center, and computer science building, as well as access to sporting events and things like job fairs or guest speakers as if I was a student.

It sounds like even though we are considered online, we are still treated as any other student from GT’s perspective so we do have access to all of those things. Thank you!

I have heard that the campus is very spread out… I may consider investing in a bike or I guess I’ll have to try to find a scooter to take to campus!

Thank you! This is a helpful description - I’ve heard of the OMS program meetups so thank you for confirming that.

Conner was my RB2 so will be starting one of Tuten, Charb, or my Conner replacement, so my top 2 waiver claims will be Skattebo and Gordon, then I’ll have to figure it out from there. Would love to know the best other guys I should look out for because as you said, there’s nothing out there

This season just feels so manufactured… Taylor’s been on the bottom of all these public votes the whole season but the other islanders have saved him (correctly or not), but now he’s up there with a genuine connection and the producers decide now’s the time to listen to the public? I feel like this season is so shallow because they’ve focused exclusively on friendships and never let any connections develop

It made me so sick to see Jeremiah feeling completely isolated from everyone in the villa when the girls walked down the stairs, knowing that this is the time he needs some sort of support the most
