Review: Great Laptop. Things to note, especially for intel users. - When I first opened the box, I found that the laptop had a relatively solid build quality. Even for plastic, the solid quality to it doesn't make it feel flimsy or loose to type into. Some minor flex is noticed, but doesn’t make it feel "hollow" or cheap either. Two days into continuous usage and some stress tests and I'm contented to how snappy it feels. The i7 model I went may be a little bit of an overkill, but it is more than enough for anything. (The i5 model runs out of stock pretty quick.) For someone who came from a Surface Pro 4 i5 and MBA, the build quality is rather impressive for the years I have owned aluminum-based devices. I have not really experienced any serious issues with gaming either. The Lenovo Vantage app is a great touch and I was able to optimize the usage I have for my computer. Speakers were decently capable, and I was able to tune it out using the Nahimic program. The 120hz display is silky smooth and clear with its anti-glare surface. Bottlenecks, Recommendations + NOTES: Upgrading the RAM helps...but is rather necessary. I experienced some lag in some areas when I had a lot of programs opened, including FPS drops when I played games requiring a lot of memory. Task Manager showed consistent 40% or more RAM being used. I strongly advise others to focus on upgrading the RAM to at least 16GB to prevent lagging and some potential crashes in other software. Keep in mind, the RAM it uses for intel (both i5 and i7) model laptops is DDR4, which isn't the best, but a great performer nonetheless..Just unusual that the Ryzen version has a MOBO that uses DDR5. I recommend getting 3200MHz to get most out of the performance you need for the RAM. The "16GB" limit stated from the manufacturer is uncertain, the possibility to use 32, or even 64GB of RAM should work. The storage is decent, however the 512GB may not be enough especially for gaming. So I recommend upgrading the memory. NOTE: It is necessary to use the smaller M.2 (2242) SSD (gen 4 capable) if you don't intend to replace the stock 512GB M.2, as it occupies 2280 M.2 already (for what I know about intel) The display of this laptop is good. It could definitely be better, but for everyday tasks and gaming it does more than enough for what I need. I don't highly recommend doing art/design related work on it, as the colors aren't going to be impressive for this laptop, they are okay at the best. I recommend getting a separate display for that. Some light bleed may be noticed on a very dark background as well. Battery life may also be lacking if the user uses extensive graphics in this computer. It is decent for the most part, and could possibly range from the least 2-7 depending on how it is being used and the specification it has. I'm yet to run out of battery since I have kept it charged in most cases. I don't travel that much either. Note: To mitigate with battery life, I recommend opening the Vantage app to switch the power mode to "Hybrid-Auto" mode, so it switches to the integrated graphics when unplugged for lower power usage. Unless you intend to game, you may put it back to Hybrid mode. I also recommend switching the thermal mode to "quiet" mode, so it reduces performance that may hinder battery life. The hotkey Fn-Q can switch power modes seamlessly. Which is indicated by the power button LED. I highly recommend updating all drivers as well. I bought this laptop in mind to use it long term and for moderate tasks and not solely for its gaming purposes. Overall, it is value for price, definitely needs upgrades though.
Review: Upgrade the RAM! - The Laptops specs are solid & Lenovo makes good products at this price point. The Included Ram is 1 stick of 8GB 1Rx16 ram... it will not game well and its going to make the computer feel sluggish. You have 2 good options for replacement. The first is much cheaper, order a set of 16GB dual channel 1rx8 this will allow your PC to utilize its full specs, this is about 40 dollars. The second option is a little more expensive but will give the best gaming results from the Laptop, Dual Channel 32GB Kit 2Rx8 CL 22 3200, with the 16GB 1Rx8 set I was getting about 60-70 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 which is a great result, the 32GB 2Rx8 set got me about 5 more FPS on the top end but the biggest difference is in the FPS lows, the dips dont really go bellow 60 now at all. Its a great laptop but you have upgrade the ram and extra storage is a must if you are a gamer, both are super easy to install, 8-10 screws and a few pop tabs.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: About the charger, does it work with 220v?**
A: Yes

**Q: Does this take ddr5 or ddr4? conflicting answers**
A: The description for the Intel i7 says it's DDR4. For the AMD it's DDR5. A motherboard that is compatible with ddr 4 ram will not accept ddr 5. The slot configuration is different. So if the Intel model of this laptop comes with ddr 4 ram you can not add ddr 5 or change what's there to ddr 5.

**Q: ¿Tiene la tarjeta gráfica 3050 Ti o 3050?**
A: la ideapad gaming 3 con 12700h viene con 3050ti

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worthwhile bargain laptop if capable of DIY upgrades, watch for refurbs if that matters
*by D***A on December 1, 2022*

Bought this product on sale as a gift for about 650 total. Received it when expected but in packaging that was truly beat to hell. The box was covered in 2 different types of tapes so it’s also entirely possible that with all the craziness of Black Friday the outside-most box just got decimated. No star loss here as the inside box had the appropriate amount of shock resistant packaging material to make it seem protected despite circumstances. I opened the undamaged computer and moved onto the required ssd and ram upgrades and the optional battery upgrade. I wanted to point out that through the Lenovo Vantage app I found out that the battery warranty had already started back in August. From my experience with the Lenovo Legion 5 that period starts once someone registers the product. After searching there is a place to note the date as incorrect and resubmit through the email created alongside the Microsoft one during setup- for people uncomfortable with products that appear to be returned/refurbished be forewarned that appears to be potentially possible. In my case it wasn’t very relevant as you will see. After a more careful inspection I moved on, but nothing in the product description, listing, or packaging made it seem like anything but new. Skip to the end but if you want my attempt at tldr. The required ssd upgrade was a 500gb 2280 NVMe Samsung 970 Evo Plus, the ram was recycled from the above mentioned legion 5 but they are two 8gbs running at 3200m/t from Critical, and optionally I decided to try to port the newish 60wh battery from the legion 5 to replace the 45wh within. The ram and ssd were typical, the laptop came with a baggie of screws that sorta fit the 2280 screw hole but left just a bit of play that does long term worry me will potentially loosen. The battery upgrade did require relocating the bios battery 2/3 inches and the larger battery fit but required some firm but gentle coaxing to sink in its new home. Case closed normally and battery was recognized in Lenovo vantage with normal temps. All upgrades were recognized in the system and after tweaks, updates, and stuff- the attached photo shows the score in user benchmark. If you time the deals correctly the ram and ssd upgrades should be sub 150- even sub 100 if you really got a tight budget. The 60 wh battery can be found 3rd party for a reasonable price as well and with necessary connections, but if you’ll only ever use it plugged in that might not matter. Overall, for the price this laptop can’t be beat as a sub 1k gaming laptop. L4D2 with maxed settings and graphically intense workshop content added barely touches 45% gpu load per Nvidia’s stats. Newer content such as Deep Rock Galactic ran closer to 80-85 fps on maxed settings so playing around with the options/DLSS/reflex boost can yield close to or in excess of the 120hz refresh rate if that matters as well. Overall, 1080p gaming is probably no worries but I didn’t test Crysis so who knows. ***The most important thing to say imo is that if you’re unwilling or unable to do the upgrades then I would avoid this computer at any price point.*** The Ryzen 5 gpu hardware reserves 2g of ram by default (disabling the integrated gpu does not yield worthwhile results- don’t bother) and lowering the UMA to 512mb costs more in the computers ability to multitask/multimedia surf effectively. User benchmark proved the performance was worse. That left the free memory on the computer at around 2-3gbs for gaming on the base version which would bottleneck very quickly. Furthermore you definitely want to move windows to whatever 2280 NVMe you upgrade with, the base 256 gb 2242 (or 2246 i forget the size) is adequate but uninspiring and you would benefit from the main system being on the higher bandwidth option- leaving the base storage as overflow. For the DIY capable or willing, this laptop (when upgraded) perfectly captures decent build quality, incredibly cheap price, and capable budget 1080p gaming.
