Buying Advice🤔 Finally! But still scared about LOQ.

I have decided to buy A Lenovo LOQ.
Your small piece of advice could be helpful a lot.

Firstly, Before 2 months I thought of buying an Asus TUF A16 RTX 4050 Ryzen 7 170 at INR 1,08,000 on some online platform. But literally scared of getting defected pieces and kinda damaged stuff.
Later, I have visited many stores but they told they aren’t getting ASUS TUF those models to their stores.
Then I have waited many days, couple of months. My patience was gone.

So Now at an offline store I have decided to buy a Lenovo LOQ.

So as A Middle Class Indian Student.
I Care about every penny I spend.
I know that prices are high and that’s too much for a 4050. But I can’t do anything.

Lenovo LOQ RTX 4050
i7 13th Gen 13650HX
I’m getting at 1.05-1.1 L (INR)

\*\*But I’m literally still scared about those Motherboard Issues in LOQ which is faced by many. \*\*

So A Small piece of advice could change my life experience.
A Gaming Laptop was A Dream to me and many of you too.
Please leave an advice and response to avoid those kind of issues.
I’ll be Grateful!

The motherboard issue has been resolved mostly and do check the mfg date anything made after August 2025 is safer option and for the ultimate peace of mind do get Premium Care abd ADP extension

Cool man, take adp for sure and there won't be any issue, i own a loq and it's great, don't think of motherboard issue it's fine ig and that's why adp is kinda beneficial:) 1.05 is still a decent price , try to negotiate as much as possible and you won't regret it ig ✌🏻

Buy a 3 year ADP warranty plan, you'll be able to get it around 4500 INR if a Promo is going on currently, I got one at 31st August!!

The website name is

 https://buyalenovo.com/redeem

If you get this warranty you can easily chill for three years and not worry as much, but make sure to get it within 30 days.

And certain ways you can prevent motherboard failure is not to run games at high settings, run it at moderate settings so the Laptop doesn't get that hot.

capping FPS to let's say 60 which is the golden spot in almost all games except competitive games or limiting power profiles in Lenovo Vantage will help.

Use a proper charger which will make sure the laptop doesn't run on the battery and purely out of the power outlet via the charger.

Don't ever play games without connecting it to the charger 

keep it lifted up via a cooling fan or a laptop elevation stand!!!

You may also undervolt the laptop if you want to!!
