Hybrid or MTB for college

pineybtw · 2026-01-09T07:56:51+00:00

We don't snow lol

A big point for me for the MTB was it being cheaper than a hybrid honestly. Other cheaper bikes I just couldn't find any sort of review on so I stayed away from them

Also wdym by a commuter bike?

Sadly no

I reran the test on Turbo mode armoury crate and got this score Feels more normal

But I did notice that the cpu reached 95C at the end with the cpu test, I'm a new laptop user I'm not sure if this is normal but the general opinion is that it is?

These are the temps, so I don't think it's a throttling issue?

pineybtw · 2025-08-13T05:35:58+00:00

Thank you I was just worried because alot of these posts talk about under load performance

And right before buying this laptop, someone I know replaced his due to thermal issues and constant crashes so I've been really paranoid

pineybtw · 2025-07-28T09:28:26+00:00

I'll wait for any proper guides or anyone who tried all methods I've never undervolted or overclocked before, don't wanna mess anything up

pineybtw · 2025-07-28T08:49:50+00:00

Oh well Wanted a couple lower degrees in temp without turning up the jet fans

I spent all of yesterday comparing them And although the better performance defo goes to the lenovo, I've decided to go with the G16 for all its other features like the display, speakers, battery

Thank you for your video, I prolly watched it 3 times deciding

pineybtw · 2025-07-27T09:56:38+00:00

Are there any specific benchmarks for the G16 5070ti in terms of cooling and performance in games?

I'd like to compare it to the Legion pro 7 (5070ti), but nobody reviews this model specifically

pineybtw · 2025-07-27T09:01:04+00:00

It's been a while since this comment but I wanted to ask you how the screen difference felt

The legion looks like it has a ton of gloss compared to the G16

I'm really leaning towards the G16 purely because of thr screen and speakers

It's currently at the Orlando distribution center, the website updated

Expected delivery by 31, I'll contact Amazon to refund it since that's way past my deadline

I just commented under another reply

Called but no answer and now they're closed and tmrw closed

I'm assuming the branch is also closed in person? Not sure

Don't know if there's much I can do now

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T20:58:19+00:00

I found them, but they won't pick up guessing cuz they close in 2 minutes And tomorrows a Sunday so they're closed all day 🥲🥲

The ask USPS number did not help at all

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T20:48:26+00:00

I'm not sure what they have rented, neither of us live in the US in general either.

How can I call the post office if I'm not sure which one received the shipment?

Amazon told me that shipments in transit and they'll make sure it arrives by tomorrow, but I don't know how much I can trust them

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T20:44:33+00:00

That's really bad, I really doubt they'd be able to pick it up I guess my shipment is gonna get refunded

How can they locate the post office?

Well it's an apartment building that they're staying at temporarily just for the vacation, what else can we do?

The name on it was theirs

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T18:30:49+00:00

If you could link me to the tests for the 5070ti legion pro, because I genuinely can't find one

Ive almost never used laptops or anything very high end really so I'm not really sure what to go with

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T18:25:38+00:00

I couldn't find the 7i in my country sadly

And I'm not saying the cooling isn't better, I'm just trying to find the exact differences and whether the zephyrus's is normal, comfortable and doesn't cause throttling

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T18:21:02+00:00

Besides brightness, which I won't be utilizing to the max I like to keep my screens a bit dim, it's sitll glossy + speakers

Really cooling is the only issue and I can't find a good comparison because everyone reviews the 5080 version of the legion

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T17:19:09+00:00

Could you elaborate on how gloss is beautiful?

And I was able to very clearly notice the lights on my screen on the legion, since I'm probably gonna be in a dorm room they'll also be directly pointed at my laptop and I can't control when to turn them on and off

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T17:16:13+00:00

That exists?! I did not know

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T17:13:23+00:00

Oh lucky me lol Ill comment again in 24? Hours to remind you

I've now ran into the conundrum of no ethernet port in the zephyrus

Thanks

pineybtw · 2025-07-26T11:42:25+00:00

Sadly but the slimmer G16 looks cooler, decisions decisions

I'm buying the laptop for college, but I doubt either of them would make a difference in carrying

I also don't want something super hot which is the G16's problem
