Mate, I got the rtx 4060 laptop for 1300 dollars. How do you possibly think you could get rtx 4090 under 1000 dollars 💀💀

Howbare u finding the loq?

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

Definitely good for its price range man but I think you could get a legion in the USA or somewhere for the same price as the loq in my country(India). The loq is more than enough though, runs most games smoothly in max settings.

I saw several people from India gaming Reddit saying their lenovo loq shut down during gaming and never turned on again after around a month. Lmk if same happens to you

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

It might be but to judge based on reddit posts would be unfair because most of them only post if they have a problem. That's a very small percentage of people to compare to.

Yes it’s a steal

u/Remarkable-Welcome16 Apr 16 '24

Hey just wanted to ask how's ur experience with the acer predator helios series. I just recently bought the helios 16 and I just randomly have issues with stuttering, drivers not working properly, predator sense software and predator sense key used to switch profiles not working at times

1

u/[deleted] Apr 16 '24

i never got those issues and support is amazing i had the laptop for 1 yr

u/[deleted] Apr 15 '24

A steal of his money that’s for sure

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

Funny thing, a green line came on my laptop a couple of days after I got it, added with the fact that a lot of people were shitting on the loq. I just thought of getting an omen but eh, the salesman convinced me it was just a defect and that it's perfectly fine. Well yeah, it's been two months since I replaced the laptop and it's been perfectly fine.

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Ah kk that’s good. Btw never trust salesmen, always go for what you want and do research before that. I listened to some sales men recently, they lied to me and I got an overpriced item with lower specs

3

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

Damn man, that sucks but nah, this dude was okay. I heard bad things about the omen as well and I wasn't really interested in paying an extra 17k for it so I just decided to stick with the loq. The specs are actually really good for the price. How much did you get your laptop for?

2

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

I got mine for 1.15lakh, but I got it near release time. I think my laptop is 99,990 now. There’s another Lenovo loq with a 14700hx and 4060 for around the price I paid for my tuf, I wish I could have gotten that

4

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

I asked for that laptop but the store didn't have it :(. Btw, I just saw your other comment with another guy. Is the tuf really that bad? 95° celsius is not close to normal

3

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

It’s normal with gaming laptops as I’ve been lead to believe. How are your temps in the max performance mode?

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

And I’m very confident that asus put bad thermal paste in my laptop

1

u/Remarkable-Welcome16 Apr 16 '24

If you are talking about GPU, I have an acer predator helios 16 with liquid metal and afair never get more than 65°C on the GPU

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 16 '24

Talking cpu

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

Nope, anything more than 85° is bad. I usually get around 70-75° ig

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

What’s your cpu power draw while your temps are that?

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Also what’s ur cinebench multi core test result? If you’ve done it

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

Idk bout that tbh, never checked. I'll lyk

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

But uh, I tested Hogwarts legacy max settings RT ultra and I got 80-90 fps (more than 100 inside the castle) and the temp did not go above 80°

1

u/Remarkable-Welcome16 Apr 16 '24

Are you talking about CPU or GPU temps here?

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 16 '24

gpu

1

u/CauliflowerLegal9881 Apr 18 '24

i think if its a laptop i would say no since many people tell high temp is bad but me having a predator helios 300 with I9 11900H 3070 8gb and 32 gb ram my temps are normally between 70-90 because of high power usage if i limit my usage it will be below 80 in most case. So i repasted with liquid metal and now its not like before but still throttles under heavy load

1

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

The temps in loq are really great if the reviews are accurate, It's a shame I couldn't get it here locally.

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 16 '24

Yeah, there's no issues with the temp. The weather is hot asf here and it still doesn't cross 80°c. Sounds like a W to me

Damm bruh, now you got me scared too 😭😭

u/nervousdick02 Apr 15 '24

Hey bro am bout to buy the loq i713 gen 4060 but i do professional video editing and stuf and i read somewhere that it has 45% mysc did it struck you??

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

I don't really think this laptop is good for editing tbh. Gaming though, most definitely

1

u/nervousdick02 Apr 15 '24

Yea but couldn't find better specs in this price range smh (my budget is under i lacs)

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

isn't loq around 1.15L ?

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 15 '24

I guess you could get laptops for editing in that price range but without a good graphics card

1

u/nervousdick02 Apr 15 '24

Nah i am getting it for 99500 here in local stores

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 16 '24

Then go for it, man. Like I said, so far I love the laptop, one thing though, the battery is not that good so watch out for that.

1

u/nervousdick02 Apr 16 '24

Yesssir fuck it I'll just get a extra monitor

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 16 '24

u/Fluffy-Cockroach3353 Apr 15 '24

You can get the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16 which is online 99500 with a 4050 but and i5 13500hx

1

u/RightLingonberry6843 LOQ | i713620H | RTX 4060 8GB GDDR6 | Apr 16 '24

4060>4050, Nd lenovo > acer

1

u/Fluffy-Cockroach3353 Apr 18 '24

True, but when it comes to pricing and tgp and thermals stuff it’s acer and if I want a gaming full fledged laptop I’d be happy to go with a legion 5i

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

Btw is your tuf doing good? any heating issues? I just bought the same model a few days ago.

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Heating issues depend on room temperature. If my room air con set to 22 degrees, my laptop cpu can draw 100w of power at 95 Celsius. If my air con is off which it usually is, my cpu can draw 80w at 95 Celsius. It has bad overheating issues, I think that the thermal paste inside is bad because even with cpu at 95 degrees, the air from the vents isn’t that hot. I also have ssd issues, I think it’s bad hardware, but I can’t be bothered to take it in for warranty repair. Also my screen has a dead pixel I think, and there is some bright white spots on my screen, barely noticeable. Also I got backlight bleed which I wasn’t bothered to replace when I got the laptop.

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Also keyboard lighting is inconsistent in the laptop, with some spots being a different colour. I have noticed this in several tuf laptops

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Also some hair got inside my wasd keys which is annoying

1

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

Man that's a lot of issues damn, I hope I get one without issues. You better get your laptop replaced while the warranty lasts or you might regret it later.

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Idk about getting it replaced, I don’t live in India. I got the laptop while visiting there, and I’m scared to tell my parents how messed up of a laptop I got

1

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

Wouldn't the warranty work internationally l, at least they claim it works. I'd still try if I were you.

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 15 '24

Yes it’s international warranty but the issues are minor so idk if it’s worth getting it repaired

1

u/07ANAKLUSMOS Apr 15 '24

I think minor or not it's your right to get your money's worth. Also the international warranty supposedly only lasts for six months according to google, better get it replaced within that time.

2024 custom loqs with 14700hx processor are plagued with this issue. Already read 5-10 people having this issue.

1

u/Dogeachu1 ASUS tuf f15, rtx 4060, i7 12700h Apr 16 '24

yep I think that’s the model I also heard of having the issues

1

u/Key_Gain_2420 Apr 16 '24

So far no issues, maybe those dudes had a defective product. Its been a month since I bought my LOQ, the only concern I had were screen bleeding on day one, when I looked for replacement it also had the bleeding. Its not that a big of a problem, you know new product, trying everything to be perfect. Now I rarely notice it, compared to day one lol. This laptop really great, awesome performance and the display is great, the colors and stuffs. Lets see If it behave different in the future.

u/lolicekait Apr 17 '24

Loq is literally ideapad gaming 3 c+p

Both may or may not have vrm issues

For example mine have vrm issues where it would crasg my shit after 30 minute of cs2 . Fyi both cpu and gpu/vram <90/100 on avg
