Lenovo Y7000 Thermal Testing - Hot or Not?

[@JarrodsTech]

Check out my full review of the Lenovo Y7000 gaming laptop here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYiWnZ2AhM5gZtU

[@vojislavvukovic7376]

Hi Jarod, very nice review. I've purchased this laptop a month ago (i7-9750, 16GB RAM, GTX 2060, 1TB M2 SSD, Windows 10 Pro). Overall it's a very good machine. I was happy with thermals (after couple hours of Tarkov temp was between 85 and 90 with -0.140 undervolting, cooling pad and second FullHD monitor, avg room temp is 27 degrees Celsius, PERFORMANCE MODE). When working (programming), temps were cca 55-65. However, with recent Microsoft update (Windows 10 KB4541335) thermals were almost always over 93 and hitting thermal throttling more than often (when gaming ofc). After uninstalling that update, temps were almost back to normal. Ofc, I wanna repaste processor (I believe it's the must do thing with any mobile i7) but unfortunatelly official services aren't working due to corona crisis. I don't have any other mobile i7 in my home (only two mobile i5's and one desktop i5) so it could be nice if you could confirm this and do some thermal testing if you have this series of i7 at your disposal with this windows update and before it.

[@eclair2350]

Great video! Is there any difference between the 540 and the y7000?

[@JarrodsTech]

Thanks! Not really other than this has some red parts, it does seem to perform a little better and I'm not really sure why, could just be newer drivers, not sure if I'll bother comparing it with the y540 as they're so similar but the 540 seems to be cheaper, well at least in my country

Hi! I know this is a bit off-track, but I am strongly debating buying the Lenovo Ideapad L340 with the i7 core. I'm not the best with computers and specs and all that, but I'm getting into it because of you! I was just wondering if I should have any second thoughts about getting that computer. I'm strongly fond of the Lenovo series as they've been so swell for me, but my current one has come to his end:( I also just have 102GB on my SSD card (if I'm not wrong) which is a pain, as I can barely play anything along with doing schoolwork on my current computer. I will be using the L340 for schoolwork, but most likely mainly gaming and entertainment, hehe. I have a bunch of steam MMO and adventure games that I've always wanted to play (like Tera and Jurassic World - which I know can be a bit heavy for laptops), so I'm just wondering if I should just go with it or look for a better option. Thanks for any feedback, appreciate it all:)

[@JarrodsTech]

It's ok for the money, performance is down due to single channel memory (guessing you saw my review on it?) You can install a larger slower/cheaper HDD for games too, it supports one. Better to buy it with a HDD though, as Lenovo try to charge you a huge amount of money just to get the cable, ends up being cheaper to buy it with a HDD from the start. Anyway it should handle that ok.

[@lucas_vlanc]

Do you know how thick and heavy the Asus TUF A15 is? Also do you know the price range of the Ryzen 5 4600h with gtx1650, 90wh battery and 60hz display? I'm curious cuz I personally love this laptop

[@JarrodsTech]

Wasn't able to weigh it on the show floor ;) that said weight is listed as 2.3kg on the spec page: www.asus.com/Laptops/ASUS-TUF-Gaming-A15/specifications/

[@lerthon]

Is any difference between undervolting with throttlestop or intel software? I'm using TS for 5 years around and i love it. Used k10stat before TS and it was nice for AMD old laptop cpus 😉 And thx for your job. I love gaming laptops bc of their power and mobility. I can describe myself as advance laptop user and all u do is rlly well done.

[@JarrodsTech]

No not really other than TS gives you more options.

[@smashandburnyt6938]

It used to be that gaming laptops used mobile graphics card, which is 30% less powerful than desktop graphics card. Nowadays, since 2016 (when the GTX 10 series Pascal microarchitecture was released), gaming laptops (even the thin and light Max-Q ones) use the same graphics card as a desktop, so they now have the same performance as a desktop but with higher power consumption. The Acer Predator Helios 300 (2018 model with GTX 1060) uses 155 watts from the wall during gaming or other demanding tasks like video editing.

[@JarrodsTech]

Yeah ever since 10 series there was a big jump for laptops!

[@smashandburnyt6938]

So nice indeed

[@bananapeel3529]

Enjoyed your detailed and unbiased review as always, man! I'm considering a Legion right now. I was leaning towards y740 because it has Thunderbolt 3. But your review exposed some flaws, particularly in thermal performance. Do you have any info if Lenovo fixed it's issues in newer versions? And another question, if you don't mind. Do you think Thunderbolt 3 is worth it to pay more for y740, rather than getting y540 or y7000? How much performance does desktop GPU lose if you play through Thunderbolt and external monitor? I was thinking in the long run Thunderbolt is a must...

[@JarrodsTech]

Cheers! I am not sure, I had to send that review unit back to Lenovo so haven't had the chance to test with newer BIOS, but I think I linked to a forum thread following the issue in one of my videos on it so you could check there to see what's happened since. Do you actually need Thunderbolt 3? I don't think many people do, generally you will step down 1-2 tiers of GPU with eGPU, for example when I tested my 1080 on a Dell G5 it performed closely to the 1060 Max-Q that was in the laptop anyway. For the cost of the enclosure and GPU, you could probably just buy a mid range laptop in 3-5 years.

[@bananapeel3529]

@@JarrodsTech Thanks again, for the detailed response! I'll go check that forum. Thunderbolt 3 is just an itch when you don't have it. You never know where the technology takes us in 3-4 years with today's AMD vs Intel/Nvidia competition. Even 2070 might soon become completely irrelevant...

I like y7000 screen cap more then on 540, but white keyboard looks better on 540 need advice. I want to get y540. I can get it with 1660ti or 2060. But with 2060 it 160 usd more expensive. according to reviews - 2060 will gives more FPS for 10-15 frames, and 1% better then with 1660ti. But I do not know if it's worth the extra 160 usd (also other spec is 8ram, 256 ssd, i7-9, and 2060 is 17inch model, but it is not a problem)

[@JarrodsTech]

1660 Ti is a good sweet spot for the money, but from my 1660 Ti vs 2060 comparison video it seems like a fair upgrade for the money if you want more, the video might help you decide: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmackGCloZ17bpo

Only hope that this laptop will works good for next 4-5 years. My old lenovo g580 20150 - still alive (from summer 2013), but now battery is dead and performance is enough only for KZbin and old old games. this laptop even survived after an accidental fall, but one USB port broke, because there was a bluetooth adapter on which it fell

How u can get -.14 and -.15 under volt dude ? I had like sample of 2 or 3 laptops one of them couldn't hit more than -.75 and mine crashed after -.125

[@JonTostanoski]

My MSI GS65 with the same CPU undervolts to .145

[@firasrabaia]

@@JonTostanoski i know it can be reached but like every laptop he get he can do that you use throttle stop ? Or xtu ?

[@JarrodsTech]

Probably 80%+ of the machines I test can manage -0.15v, but it all varies and is luck, there are no global values, nothing is guaranteed. I use XTU myself because it's easy to quickly set what I need to get the video done, Throttlestop has far more option though.

[@bomj-valera]

Lol, it now looks just like y540 from last year if not looking at the top.

[@norushoutcast]

It is y540, only more red version

[@JarrodsTech]

Yep same chassis, just more red and more expensive.

when i saw this video i almost thought this was a Dell G7

​@@JarrodsTech I know it's unrelated to this video, but I felt I need to ask this in a recent video. I just watched your Acer Helios 300 review and it felt like turbo mode is essential to get the best performance on modern games. Can turbo mode run 24/7? Is the only downside of turbo mode the loud fans, or is there a damaging effect/negative outcome of having it on at all times? Sorry if the question is silly, I've only ever had an older laptop, so I'm not familiar with these more modern features.

[@JarrodsTech]

@@appolos8598 I would expect it to be fine

[@appolos8598]

@@JarrodsTech I know I'm bothering you, but I just need to be sure! If there's no downside whatsoever, then you're telling me the only reason there's a turbo button is for less fan noise?

[@HuyNguyen-ct6sb]

Should i buy the y540 now or waiting for 2020 laptops

[@JarrodsTech]

I think it's still a good option if you need something now, but could be worth waiting for new Intel/AMD CPUs and NVIDIA refresh graphics in a few months,even if you don't buy something new maybe that lowers the price of current stuff.

[@HuyNguyen-ct6sb]

Thanks

[@levynkhs8820]

i wonder why laptop cannot be water cooled and why cant we use nitrogen,i know that it will damage the electrical component but is there a solution for that

[@speedylordinc.3748]

Have you ever watercooled something before;), watercooling is challenging to do in Itx cases, let alone a laptop chassis! And nitrogen... nobody wants to drag a huge nitrogen can everywhere they go with their laptops;)

Asus ROG strix GL531GU vs Lenovo Y7000 (Both have same specs) as a gamer which one you'll pick?

[@JarrodsTech]

haven't tested the first one so can't say, but the Y7000 makes minimal sense when the Y540 exists (comparison coming soon)

Sir,I am about to buy a Acer predator Triton 300(i7-9750,GTX 1650) for $1125...Is it worth it?

[@dipaklingayat8490]

No

[@gvrkrishna4857]

@@dipaklingayat8490 why so?

[@JarrodsTech]

That sounds expensive for a 1650, when Helios 300 is $1100 or less with 1660 Ti which does 50% better in games.

comparison with helios 300 please.

Maybe, I was thinking about it, but yeah not sure.. I actually sent a Helios 300 away today so had the chance to film them side by side but didn't bother, I could just edit it in like usual if needed but yeah, didn't seem to be that much point as this is basically a Y540 and I've already compared the Helios with Y540.

Faut le laisser en mode quiet :)

[@JarrodsTech]

Why? Doesn't really make a difference to the fan noise. I guess if you want cooler internals at the expense of some performance then sure.

@@JarrodsTech quiet at 3500mhz or performance at 3700mhz clocks are a good compromise between thermals/performance I think :D
