  • QuestionIs it for gamers?

    Asked by Random.

    • Answer Hey there, While this system was not designed with gaming in mind, it may run certain games so long as the specifications of this IdeaPad Slim 3 align with the system requirements shared by the game's developer/publisher on their site or the game's store page. From the perspective of a true "gamer" though, a system designed for gaming, like a Lenovo LOQ or Legion laptop would provide a much more elevated gaming experience with better performance.

  • QuestionWill there be any problems with the battery or overheating when I leave it running overnight? And how loud does the fan get?

    Asked by b1172.

    • Answer Hey b1172, So long as the system isn't in an enclosed space with minimal air circulation, charging the device or leaving it running overnight shouldn't lead to overheating. Also, based on user reviews, fan noise is only most apparent when the system is under a heavy workload--i.e., when gaming, local video editing. Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!

  • QuestionWill this computer with its 16 RAM be able to run the Adobe Creative suite efficiently, or will it bog down? Trying to see if I need to buy a computer with more RAM.

    Asked by perrx5.

    • Answer Hey perrx5, Based on Adobe's system requirements, this can vary from app to app, but overall, memory shouldn't be the bottleneck, but rather the processor's performance capabilities and the system's graphics performance. If you could share details like what apps you may wish to use and to what capacity (light editing, if it's intensive or work-related), we can assist you more precisely.

    Asked by vince7.

    • Answer Hey vince7, There shouldn't be any issues with voltage, connectivity, or impedance of function for any other important system components. Although, you may need a different power cable to use with the included power adapter or a regional plug adapter, as this is intended for US use. Also, this system's warranty is based in the US for coverage and is not covered by International Warranty Services. This could prove to be troublesome should you need to service your system and need certain replacement components. Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!

    Asked by Queried.

    • Answer Hey Queried, While the system was not designed for gaming, you could game on it depending on the titles you wish to play.
