A:AnswerHi Mamazoo,
If you wish to increase the system storage to 1TB, we recommend taking advantage of this LOQ's open M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot to install another 512GB 4.0x4 NVMe drive for identical storage performance and 1TB of storage total.

A:AnswerHey,
Based on the specifications of the system's chipset, you should be able to swap out the Wi-Fi card for an Intel M.2 Wi-Fi 7 card (like the Intel BE200). Although, to note, this has not been tested by Lenovo for this LOQ series.

A:AnswerHey again prof2000,
Yes, you can utilize this LOQ's MUX switch to toggle GPU working modes, switching from the integrated GPU (iGPU) to the dedicated graphics (dGPU), both, and in-between. This can be done most easily via the Lenovo Vantage app, under gaming settings > Select GPU working mode. Also, using the iGPU generally will greatly reduce power draw to increase battery life.

A:AnswerHey CLRKNT,
What we can share is that the Intel CPU can go up to around 115W (possibly more depending on power and CPU settings), and the RTX 5050 has a TGP of 100W.

A:AnswerHey Zshet,
What we recommend considering first is if the memory is compatible with the system. Look for SO-DIMM DDR5-4800 memory, then you can align with the brand and pricing you prefer.

A:AnswerI wouldn't say overheat, but it does throw out a lot of heat with the two fans. That's a lot of processing and video power to try to keep cool. But it hasn't overheated on me yet.
A:AnswerHey Kdog,
Yes, the LOQ 15 features a robust cooling system with Hyperchamber cooling technology, large 3-D printed fans, with several heatsinks and pipes so components stay cool.
