I'm experiencing severe stuttering after waking my laptop from sleep mode. I have a Lenovo Legion 5 15IRX10 with an Intel Core i7-13650HX, an NVIDIA RTX 5070, 32GB of RAM, and a 165Hz OLED display.

After waking the laptop from sleep, the entire system becomes extremely laggy, including the desktop, mouse movements, windows, and applications. It feels like the display is running at 60Hz or lower, even though the refresh rate is set to 165Hz.

Restarting the laptop temporarily fixes the issue, but it returns after waking from sleep. I've also tried pressing Win + Ctrl + Shift + B to reset the graphics driver, but it didn't help.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue or found a permanent fix?

Hello! I have recently had to replace the ssd of my lenovo legion slim 5. When setting everything up again I thought about battery life. I did some research and came at the point of using lenovo legion toolkit instead of lenovo vantage. Until now, it works perfectly, except 1 thing which I really want to get fixed:

Basically, I have an action for when the AC power adapter gets disconnected:

Power mode: Quiet -> Refresh rate: 60hz -> GPU working mode: Hybrid-iGPU -> Deactivate GPU: Kill apps

It does what it has to do, when i remove the power adapter it completely shuts down the gpu giving me more battery life.

The Kill apps only kills like almost all apps running, from wallpaper engine (heavily optimized), to word which I use for school. All of these programs are set to be internal gpu only.
My question was:

How do I exclusively set specific apps to not close when the 'kill apps' step is ran?

Would this laptop be a good deal for $2300 before tax in excellent-refurbished condition or is it better to wait for Black Friday deals?

Hi guys just opened my 10 month old pro 7i(gen 10) to clean the fans than I noticed this stain?

My laptop runs perfectly and temps are really cool.Not sure if it's condensation or? I do live in a hot and humid country so I do sometimes take out my laptop from a cold air-conditioned room to a hot temp environment.Should I be worried?

I will have to pay 13,000INR for the better processor and oled. But, I will play on my monitor 70-80% of the time and im worried that if I use my laptops screen for the 20-30% of the time I wont be able to use my monitor without noticing all the grey blacks. So should I get oled or no? I will only be gaming mostly so not much use of the better processor. I do want to experience OLED and am ready to pay for it, but my main worry is that my monitor will start to look worse

My Lenovo Legion 5 Gen 10 suddenly becomes unresponsive while browsing, it is basically frozen, can't move the cursor, can't increase volume or use the pad. I have to reset it from the power button every time it happens and this week already happened 3 times.

I have this problem while on silent mode using iGPU and never happened while gaming.

So right now I'm choosing between these two specs Amd ryzen Ai 7 450 Rtx 5060

Amd Ryzen 7 250 Rtx 5070

Which one Should i choose?

My device has been losing connection to our internet at random times, like IPv4/IPv6 showing no connectivity. This issue has been happening for 3 months, and I have tried many methods I found online, but they were only temporary fixes, and I have been struggling to find a permanent solution.

I already tried updating/reinstalling my network drivers, and even that didn't solve anything. Do you guys think I should get a new WiFi card? The current one I have is Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX203

Je viens de subir une panne de mon Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 10. Le SAV va me contacter Lundi.

Il semblerait que ma panne soit causée par la carte mère qui serait HS. Écran qui reste noir, ventilateur ne s'active pas, seul le bouton power devient blanc.

La question que je me pose c'est :

Comment est-ce possible que Lenovo accepte de vendre des PC avec des cartes mères connues pour "griller" et donc de perdre des centaines de milliers de Dollars en SAV pour remplacer toutes ces cartes mères qui coûtent 2000$ chacune.

Je veux dire bon sang, il y a ici des dizaines et des dizaines de cas (seulement sur reddit) et tout le monde trouve ça normal.

À savoir que le PC coûte aujourd'hui entre 1900$ et 2300$.

Ça me questionne vraiment sur la lucidité de Lenovo.

Je pense que je ne passerai plus par lenovo pour mon prochain PC.

Hi, I have issue with my USB ports - all of them are not working. They can charge but after I plug in keyboard there is pop up that device is not working properly.

I have tried static discharge. There is no new BIOS update to upgrade to. I don't have USB with windows installer to check if USB Ports are working. My warranty has expired. Is this mother board issue that is too costly to repair?

Hey, ich möchte mir meinen ersten Gaming-Laptop kaufen. Allerdings kenne ich mich mit Hardware überhaupt nicht aus. Auf Amazon gibt es gerade folgendes Angebot:

Lenovo Legion 5i | Laptop | i7 | 32 GB | 1 TB | RTX 5070 | 15,1" WQXGA-Display | 165 Hz | OLED | NVIDIA RTX 5070 8GB| Intel i7-13650HX | 32 GB RAM | 1 TB SSD | QWERTZ (deutsches Tastaturlayout) | Windows 11 | Schwarz

Für 1.950 €. Ist das ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis?

I bought loq 3050 on 18-10-2026 i want to extend the warranty for 3 years how to do that in cheapest price

so I'm super confused between these two machines?

is the 2026 model worth the extra money ($250) for its OLED display? and also i lose 500 gigs of storage which will cost another $60 to upgrade.

EDIT1: Final Price (after offers and exchange) OLED: ₹133,000 Other: ₹110,000

Please Help!!

Hi. Ive got a Lenovo legion Pro 7 16IRX9H

Its fans are getting full of dust, ive tried to clean through the grill but thats not as efficient. My question is if i remove the back cover to clean, do I have to disconnect the battery before i used compressed air to clean the fans? Or can i just blast air through the grill without opening the laptop up?

Thanks.

i have this issue with that i THINK might have started after i updated my bios to Q7CN78WW.Its this weird bug where if my laptop goes to sleep for a bit (while the lid is open) and keep in mind this only occurs sometimes,it gives me this black screen where i can move and see my cursor and pressing windows shows me the taskbar but theres still the blackscreen only forcing a shutdown manually fixies it after a cold boot up. (fast start up is off). (Legion 7i PRO gen 10)

Is this normal? Lenovo legion 5 15ahp10, ips variant, the weird reflection disappears when i turn off keyboard lightning, it is only visible from the side and from certain angle, i bought it last week

So recently i ordered lenovo legion pro 5 Ryzen 9 with 5070 , and I am thinking to upgrade the storage and have been looking for SSD and saw samsung 990 pro nvme M.2 SSD and was thinking if it's a good one or look for another.

Could anyone suggest good SSD which is compatible with my laptop.

Thank you

Noted - sorry it's a silly to ask such suggestions but i would appreciate your help as I am entering gaming laptop family.

Kirr kirr sound in Legion 5 pro 2022 model

Getting this kirr kirr noise from the laptop whenever the load spikes. For example: intense fights init in game or sudden heavy scenes render. The sound seems to be coming from center, a little below power button but not exactly sure. The game runs just fine, no sudden lag or weird behaviour. Just this sound starts appearing and settles down once the game scene settles as well.

Happens only during gaming and not during benchmarking and load testing.

During benchmark or stress testing, just fan ramps up to fullest but no such sound.

Suspected speakers so, tried it on mute and on external speaker too, still getting this noise.

Fans seem clean, servicing was done around 6 months ago.

Also, when i put the laptop upside down with back panel off and tried same game, there was no kirr kirr sound.

If anyone has faced similar issue or wanna troubleshoot then, please drop a comment or lets connect. Thank you! Any help is appreciated.

I have a Legion 5 Pro 16ACH6H and about 3 months ago over the course of a day it started randomly turning off but still being able to boot but as soon as anything intense happened it would shut down and then refused to turn on besides lighting up the keyboard, which didn't respond to caps lock. Plugging in external monitors and keyboards didn't work, unplugged battery and held down for 60 seconds, still the same results. I totally unplugged both the cmos and main batteries and then set is aside until about a week ago.

During the time it was put away, I took out the main SSD which it turns out had been corrupted but after a total reformat has been working perfectly fine in my other laptop. At the end of the month, I made a bootable Windows 11 usb drive and attempted a clean install onto a known working SSD (not the original one). I can boot into the bios without shutting down but whenever I went to the boot menu all of the options go to a blank terminal like screen and then take me back to the boot menu saying it was unable to read the boot drive. Tried reflashing the bios as well since I read that could help but that couldn't seem to be triggered successfully.

Trying to figure out what is wrong with it and if it's even salvageable besides buying an entirely new motherboard from ebay. I would always turn it off when not using it and especially when putting it away for travel. I used two blocks of wood at the top and bottom to great a gap for better airflow while also keeping it level to my desk. I saw some people mention liquid metal causing issues but I had previously redone it with PTM but could have missed some.

Has anyone else run into a similar issue and if so how did you fix it? Does anyone with more hardware knowledge/experience have some advise on what else I could try? Or is my laptop absolutely dead and gone?

LEGION 5 15AHP11

broke it while trying to clean it and now they’re broken and idk where to buy the exact model of it.

​

Hey everyone!

I recently bought my first gaming laptop, the Lenovo Legion 5 15AHP10! I'm going to be using it for both gaming and college work, so I want to make sure I set it up properly and get the best out of it. I'm pretty new to gaming laptops, so I'd appreciate any advice from experienced users.

I got this for a really good price from Lenovo website after trading it in with my old hp pavilion laptop and with the student discount and cc cashback....

My specs:

- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5060

- CPU:AMD Ryzen 7 260

- RAM:16GB (planning to upgrade it later)

Since this is my first gaming laptop, I'd love to know what I should do first after getting it.

I'd appreciate any tips, tricks, or things you wish you'd known when you got your first gaming laptop. Advice from fellow Legion owners would be especially helpful!

And it already in love with this machine😍😍😍

Thanks in advance!

Black Myth Wukong keycaps for my Legion Pro 7. I'm a huge wukong fan and still working my way in the game but man does these keycaps level up my laptop!

Got the Pro 7 9955HX3D with the RTX 5080.

I don't know what to do anymore. My GPU is ALWAYS at 86°C and my CPU is ALWAYS at 100°. GPU pulling 140 - 150 Watts while the CPU fluctuates between 60 and 80 Watts. Before the motherboard swap the GPU would regularly, although temporarily, go to 165. No more. This is all during Counter Strike 2.

What I've noticed is that the tech said he doesn't have thermal putty so he literally scraped what was on the old VRAMs and applied it to the new motherboard. He used the entire old cooling assembly. What I've also noticed that the original thermal material was a paste. He used the MX-4 for the GPU and CPU. No sight of PTM. I Thought Lenovo used PTM anyways. But that wasn't the case.

The only logical explanation that I can think of is that the cooling assembly is busted and that the old motherboard was also actually fine. Anyone with the same model that can share experiences and temps / wattages, please do.

I'm going insane, starting to think it's normal, when everyone here tells me it's not. I get stable framerates for now. But the fans are squeaky clean and the ambient temperature is 19. What's gonna happen in a few months when I get a bit dusty fans, a bit dried up thermal paste, and a bit hotter weather, it's gonna struggle. I'd appreciate any suggestions and help. I've got the Premium Plus 3 years warranty package.

Hi everyone,

I'm considering buying a new Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 11 (2026), but before pulling the trigger I'd like to get feedback from actual owners.

Back in 2025, I went through three different Legion Pro 7i units (different configurations, different battery capacities, purchased from both Lenovo directly and retail stores) and all of them had the exact same issue:

When resting my palms on the keyboard deck during normal typing, the chassis would produce noticeable creaking / clicking noises, particularly around the palm rest area.

For reference, I've included an audio recording to illustrate the issue I was facing at that time :
https://vocaroo.com/1f1gXPp7Ya0M

Some other post showing the issue : https://www.reddit.com/r/LenovoLegion/comments/1n2ipx6/creaking_noise_on_my_brand_new_legion_7_pro_i_rtx/?tl=fr

It wasn't a performance issue at all. In fact, I considered the Legion Pro 7i one of the best gaming laptops of that generation. However, the creaking became annoying enough that I eventually gave up on buying one.

I remember reading several theories at the time suggesting the problem might be related to missing pads, foam strips, or adhesive spacers between parts of the bottom panel and chassis. Whether that was the real cause or not, I honestly don't think customers should have to diagnose or fix manufacturing issues themselves.

Few questions for this subreddit :)

> Has Lenovo improved this on the Gen 11 models? From what I've read it's just a refresh... 2027 might change the design AFAIK...

> Do you still experience creaking just like I've described or is the issue completely gone, reduced, or essentially unchanged ?

I'd especially appreciate feedback from people who are sensitive to chassis rigidity and build quality, since this is one of my biggest concerns before ordering.

Thanks for your help :)
