Q: QuestionCan someone explain to me why the battery life is so little on these new machines? Why no Intel ultra chips when other new lenovo models have them?

Asked 1 year ago by Dnutt.

• A:Answer Hi, we'll take a crack at it. There are a few major factors that affect battery life, with one of them being the idle power draw of the HX CPU vs the Core Ultra H CPUs. The i7 HX CPU in this model has 20 cores vs 16 cores on the Core Ultra 7. The HX CPU is focused entirely on performance for tasks like gaming or intense software usage while the Core Ultra 7 is focused more on battery life. The Legion 7i is designed to be portable, but at its core is a gaming first device and prioritizes performance first. This, along with another factor like heightened graphics performance with an RTX 4060, having a TGP of 115W, when under heavy loads like gaming, can create a big power draw from the battery to maintain performance.

Q: Questionhow much maximum ram can I install?

Asked 1 year ago by sam.

• A:Answer Documentation says 32 GB but I am running 64 GB fully recognized and running at 5600 MHz. I'm sure other brands will work but I am using Kingston Fury KF556S40IBK2-64 which is 2 x 32 GB pair of sticks. I would recommend performing ALL available firmware updates via the included Lenovo tools prior to installation.

Q: QuestionHi, I am considering purchasing and external gaming monitor for the Lenovo-Legion 7i (RTX 4060 8GB) that I purchased. I play games like Anno 1800 and Manor Lords. What would be the ideal monitor resolution 2560 x 1440 or 1080P for best performance?

Asked 1 year ago by Feyzi.

• A:Answer Hey, Feyzi. Based off the recommended system requirements that are listed on these Ubisoft (for Anno 1800) webpage (https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/anno-1800/purchases-and-rewards/article/system-requirements-for-anno-1800/000061892) and Manor Lord's Steam page (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1363080/Manor_Lords/), you should be able to use a 1440 monitor with moderate (120) refresh rate without any issues. To be safe, if you want to reach towards the 165Hz+ range, you may want to stick to a lower resolution monitor (even around about 1200p should be okay) to help ensure everything run smooth. This could be truer for Manor Lords since it can be more graphically intensive. Hope this helps! If you are looking for more details or have any question, feel free to drop it in the Q&A again.

Asked 1 year ago by Jess.

• A:Answer Hi, Jess. This model does not feature an ethernet port, however, users can utilize an adapter if a hardwired connection is desired. Also, it should run Fallout 4 well, as it exceeds the game developer's recommended system requirements detailed on this webpage (https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/31148).

Q: QuestionHow bad is the heat on this computer please?

Asked 7 months ago by HeatSucks.

• A:Answer I got this for my daughter a few weeks ago. It gets pretty hot and the fan kicks in often and is LOUD. The volume in this machine is subpar for the specs and price and once that fan kicks in, you can barely hear the game you are playing. I am going to invest in a cooling base for her so it can "hopefully" combat the heating this thing produces. And also some external speakers so she can hear her game better. Great looking machine, just lacking in a lot of areas?

Q: QuestionCan I get this model with exact same features but in Grey or black?

Asked 9 months ago by Nodisplay.

• A:Answer I checked Lenovo's site and it appears that the Lenovo Legion 7i with the i7 processor is only available in white. You can get a Legion 7i with an i9 processor in black. They tend to be on sale with prices close to this model, so it might be worth the look if you're still in the market for a laptop!
