Q: Can this thing run "Cyberpunk 2077" on it's highest settings without any issues?
A: Hello, MasterSigma. In short, no. For some insight, this model LOQ is an entry level gaming device that can provide some great performance, however different gaming titles have different levels of performance necessary. For your review, here is a link to CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements webpage (https://support.cdprojektred.com/en/cyberpunk/pc/sp-technical/issue/1556/cyberpunk-2077-system-requirements) that shares what specifications and features are necessary for the game's respective tier of settings. We recommend choosing a device, like our Legion Pro 7i with a 14th gen Intel Core i9 processor and an RTX 4080 graphics card, that best aligns with the "ultra" settings recommended specifications tab from the previously linked page for optimum performance and a smooth gaming experience.
Q: Can I do my college work on this laptop? (Such as Microsoft word and zoom)
A: Hi, Liyah. You sure can do those kinds of tasks on this LOQ 15. You'd have more power for gaming during down time as well. One thing to consider if you're an all over campus kind of student or just generally active, you want to be mobile with your laptop and travel with it place to place. Some devices, like this gaming focused LOQ here, can be bulkier, with more weight, to help with cooling and more power, so please keep that in mind as you search to find the right solution for you.
A: Hi, NUMBER1BROSKI. Due to the variables of hardware configurations, it is difficult to predict the details of what performance you would experience. That will depend on the requirements and compatibility of the specific games you plan to use. We recommend you check the game publisher’s website (here is a link for your reference (https://www.epicgames.com/help/en-US/c-Category_Fortnite/c-Fortnite_TechnicalSupport/what-are-the-system-requirements-for-fortnite-on-pc-and-mac-a000084912)) for their compatibility with the minimum/recommended hardware requirements to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration to determine compatibility. You can also check the CPU and GPU manufacturer sites for benchmark data.
Q: Is this a 2-in-1? One of the illustrations seems to indicate the laptop was folded 360º.
A: Hi again, luislast. Apologies for any confusion, as the images depict the range of motion for the hinges, allowing the laptop lid to open to 180 degrees. The LOQ 15 is not a 2-in-1 device.
Q: Can it run Overwatch 2 on low to medium settings?
A: Hey, GoldenWolf. Based off the system requirements that are listed on this Blizzard webpage (https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/65159), this LOQ can run the software, but possibly on the lower settings range. On the webpage you'll find that the CPU and GPU recommendation listed are above what this system offers but it more than satisfies the minimum requirements. We recommend reviewing these system requirements on the previously linked webpage, then comparing it with the specifications this LOQ 15 or any potential computer you’re interested in to help ensure you find the right fit for you.
Q: Can this run warzone 3 on high settings?
A: Hey, Cam. Based off the system requirements that are listed on this Call of Duty webpage (https://www.callofduty.com/store/games/warzone), this LOQ can run the game fine; however, high settings would probably put the laptop under too much stress, as based off the system requirements, the graphics card in this LOQ is below their recommendation. We recommend reviewing the system requirements detailed on the previously linked webpage, then comparing it with the specifications this LOQ 15 or any potential computer you’re interested in to help ensure you find the right fit for you. Hope this helps!
Q: Can It Run Roblox Well While Recording
A: Hi, GamerToTop. It can depend on variables like what recording software/hardware you are using, but it should be able to run both things simultaneously basked off the system requirements for Roblox (which can be viewed at this link (https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/203312800-Computer-Hardware-Operating-System-Requirements).
A: Look at the illustrations. It HAS a normal right CTRL key. There is no Co-Pilot key.
