I'm sorry, is there a question in here somewhere?

I assume you want to know where to lower the refresh rate, when windows settings doesn't provide the option. Since you mention that the laptop has a 3060 in it, this can be done via the Nvidia control panel. Just right click on desktop, find the control panel with Nvidia Logo, and you should see Desktop Resolution option somewhere on the left hand side. From there you should see a similar drop down with refresh rates, which should provide more to you. If you do not, reply to my post and I can help you creating a custom resolution profile with the new refresh rate you want.

Note to OP: You need to disable/turn off Hybrid Mode so that the display will run at dGPU/discrete mode and you can access the full Nvidia Control Panel settings. And set a custom display option with refresh rate of 60Hz (since there is no such option in Legion 5)

Change the Hz for Legion 5 laptop I have already tried the control panel. Can someone explain to me how to do this? I want to lower the Hz to save battery :)
