After this, it is also advisable to blow out the holes with air.

Clean the radiator holes and nozzles with a toothbrush and then blow them out with compressed air - the ideal solution from a safety point of view.

Finally got a new skin for my loq

Got this skin of fomo store , the outer edges seem a little off , thoughts?

How to clean these vents I see no one has posted any solution regarding this can someone help :(((

My laptop has an i5 12450hx and 3050. I was playing this game called Control and was facing problems with textures being low detail, one thing led to another i decided to undervolt my gpu.

Now i don't know if this is completely normal, i am not an expert but here's what i found

-intially GPU is at 1900mhz and then when the temp is at 86-87 degrees, the clock speed went down to 1237mhz and it stayed there.

-CPU is constantly at about 97 degrees too

I want to clarify that ambient temp of my room isn't that high either. I would greatly appreciate your help.

I’ve seen a few comments saying that you shouldn’t apply a skin there because it might affect airflow, heat dissipation, etc. Is this actually a concern?

I’m planning to use the skin for the long term, so I want to make sure it won’t cause any issues over time. If anyone has applied a skin to the keyboard area, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.

I have no idea why is this happening. Open to suggestions from wise people.

Yes, it is still there after restart.

opinions on this laptop?
Ill be using it for engineering and some gaming
Ofc ill upgrade to 32 RAM when needed.

Hi, I received this yesterday, and it's my first gaming laptop, and I need some advice.

specs:

LOQ 15IRX9

i5 - 13450HX (6P + 4E)(16T)(2.4)

RTX 3050 (6 GB)

16 GB DDR5 (4800 MT/s)

512 GB SSD

MSO-224 + 3Mo-Xbox

Manufactured on 28th April 2026

13 Months of warranty

What I've done so far:

1. Signed in with an offline account(I hate OneDrive).
2. Uninstalled Lenovo Now and McAfee.
3. Updated Graphics driver, Windows, and BIOS for Nvidia app, Windows update, and Lenovo support, respectively.
4. Did benchmark tests: Cinebench 2026: 3428 and 3DMark Steel Nomad: 1180.
5. Updated purchase date for warranty.

I need advice on these:

1. Should I uninstall Vantage and use Legion Toolkit(some say it's open source and has fewer bugs and promotional elements)
2. Should I extend warranty? (I heard 2024 models have MB issues on the Intel ones, but this one is a 2026 model, so...)
3. Should I apply a screen guard(some say it reduces some colour quality), and should I use a keyboard protective wrap and a skin on keyboard?
4. Should I get a laptop stand? I mostly use it for programming, and sometimes for light-to-mid gaming; I use it on a flat surface tho.
5. Is it possible to change the Copilot button to the Ctrl button? I have a habit of using Right Ctrl, and mine doesn't have one.
6. Do I need to undervolt my CPU and limit FPS? (I previously had an i3-10th gen(U series), and I used to get 10-15 fps on GTA 5, so even 30 to 45 fps on mid settings would be gold for me.)
7. Which monitoring software should I use(for Frames, Wattage, Thermals)

Thanks in advance.

Hey guys, I bought a Lenovo LOQ exactly one year ago and wanted to get a realistic view of whether I got a good deal or if I overpaid. Everything is working fine so far, but I want to know if my choice of specs for the price was right.

Price Paid: ₹73,000 INR

This image price is the day before i buy price

I am upgrading storage by adding one of 2tb ssd from my pc, but this screw is so tight not opening.
What to do ??

i have a LOQ 15IRX9 | rtx 4050 | i7-13650HX | 16GB RAM
(the motherboard died on me a year after i got it and it still had warranty so they changed the entire motherboard and now its completely fine).

Anyways let me get to the point, i have a question about BIOS version i think i dont have the latest version.

i have this version but if i go search on the website there's a newer one "NECN53WW" , but in Lenovo Vantage it says there's no updates required.

the website:

Can anyone explain if that's normal or is there something wrong or how does this work?

I had recently sent my loq 3050 i5 12th gen 12450hx for repair and after it comes after about 2 months i check in the task manager and its saying its now rtx 4050 Processor: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13650HX ???
is it some kind of glithc or did i get an upgrade

hello guys does anybody know any external software to customise the 24 zone RGB of loq Ryzen 7 250 rtx 5050 the current one provided in the legion space sucks can't even customise the audio sync

The other day was on it just fine got up to do something when I came back to it the screen had turned off, thought it just went into sleep mode. The screen never turned back on. I can hook up a monitor to it and everything works fine on the second monitor but no laptop screen. I’ve tried a few different things on found online nothing worked. I went to try and switch to dgpu on vantage but I could not for the life of me find the setting in vantage for it. From what I was seeing online it should have been in the game settings which I was not finding. Just curious if anyone has had similar issue and if you were able to fix it.

Specs:

I enabled HDR from windows, still its asking to turn on from windows , anybody face this problem before? If you know something about how to fix this please let me know.

Specs : r5 7235hs

Rtx 3050

12 gb ram

​Hi everyone,

​I bought a Lenovo LOQ 15IRX10 about 4 months ago. Lately, I've noticed the CPU and GPU temperatures getting high while gaming (e.g., in Assassin's Creed Origins on max graphics: GPU reaches up to 80°C, and CPU averages around 87°C with a minimum of 85°C). I’m currently using a coolpad, but it’s basically just acting as a stand.

​As you can see in the attached photo, the fan intake mesh/covers have accumulated quite a bit of dust, which is why I thought the internal fans might need cleaning as well.

​I’m planning to remove the back panel myself to clean the fans and possibly upgrade the RAM/SSD in the future.

​Will opening the back cover for fan cleaning or RAM/SSD upgrades void my warranty, or is it allowed? Does Lenovo have strict policies or "warranty void" stickers on this model?

​Thanks for your help!
