    nah, I only had 2 years. The laptop is holding up amazingly otherwise, can't complain about Lenovo myself.

    I've got a 2020 Legion 5-15ARH05H that recently started aggressively and randomly throttling the CPU under full load for a brief time. It's an AMD 4800H, RTX 2060 setup with 16GB of RAM. I'm on Windows 11 22621.3085, latest drivers, BIOS etc. I made this trace of some resource usage while playing Overwatch 2 (the first fps dip is the described scenario, later on is when I closed the game) I'm particularly confused by the CPU temp behaviour and how it seems to be stable and spike from time to time. The big throttle that occurred it seems when the temp spiked above 108C. I've already repasted and cleaned the heating system twice now. The only thing I noticed that was weird was a discolouration on the CPU die that I was not able to rub off (burned paste? oxide? idk) Any help from other Legion 5 owners is very much appreciated, and from anyone else more familiar with power management and heat/throttle issues.

    And the case is already gone EDIT found it on another listing

    It's even weirder to me, I'm going to Level1tech forums now...
  5. A_man
    Yeah - SOC 1.2v, DDRv 1.35v, ProcODT auto, Timings 16 18 18 18 36
  6. A_man
    I tried SOC on 1.2v still only 2800MHz, any other ideas?
  7. A_man
    Now after trying DDRv 1.38, SOC 1.15 and even ProcODT 80ohms I still couldn't do it and I cant even go to 1933 anymore, now I'm at 1800 and out of ideas. I'm gonna try this SOC at 1.2 and tell you what happens though.
  8. A_man
    You are looking at QVL of AMD Aseries processors, not ryzen.
  9. A_man
    Not exactly the thread you should be looking for.. This is about AMD and you have an Intel so it's definitely not the same issue.
  10. A_man
    I'm figuring it out with others here
  11. A_man
    Thakns for advice, by setting the timings to 16 18 18 18 36 and SOCv to 1.15 and DDRv to 1.35 I am able to run at 2933MHz Is it safe to go with higher voltages to get to 3200MHz? and should I raise the voltage of SOC or DDRv first?
  12. A_man
    and what is the right setting?
  13. A_man
    Guys, there are so many answers but they only create more questions. Should I use XMP or not, should i set the SOC voltage to 1.1 or 1.2, so Idk what should I do rn. I gathered some screenshots of my bios so maybe it'll be easier for you to figure it out: Notice that the SOC voltage and DDRv are set to auto and run at 0.8 and 1.2 accordingly, but I don't know why it is sometimes 1.2v and 1.35v. The other thing that confuses me is that the timing that you can see in advanced DDR configuration are not the ones from the XMP profile. So either go and create a sticky or help me out together because everyone tells me something else.
  14. A_man
    Do you know how to do that on click bios 5? If yes I would greatly appreciate your help.
  15. A_man
    I get you man, have a look at mine
