guys have anyone tried elden ring in these configs ?
You will get around 30-40 fps on medium settings
@@coolstar7226 ok that’s enough, thanks for answer buddy
You wassup! Nice vid btw. :)
Heyo! Thank you :D
still good for e sport titles and maybe story games if your fine with 40fps
It was better than i have expected yes. 🙂
You should test "Highfleet" and "Victoria 3" on this laptop too.
I don't have the laptop right now, so not possible sorry..
Hey bro, nice video, tengo una pregunta ¿Wich driver use?
Hi, thanks! I've used the latest one from the Nvidia website.
nice video! but i just want to know what does FSR means on your settings?
Hi, thanks! FSR is an upscaling method from AMD. So the game is "running" in 1080p, but the resolution internally is lower depending on the setting. :-)
@@Beisepimp I see. well, if that's the case I'm already aware of it it's just that I got confused because I thought FSR is for AMDs only and you're using a GTX 1050 Ti. Is it possible for FSR to work on that processor?
@@samuelmartinez4705 FSR is working on AMD / Nvidia and Intel GPU's. 🙂
@@Beisepimp whoah! How? Sorry if this conversation goes long, can you tell me how do I enable it or do I need to install it? i have the same specs as yours
@@samuelmartinez4705 No problem, i'am here to help, so no problem. It the conversation goes to long , i also reply privatly on instagram sometimes. :') This is a setting in the game itself. So you can always activate it if the game supports it.
Do it better than asus gl553 with same config.
So I have the exact same laptop and I only changed my standard nvme ssd to a very fast crucial nvme ssd and a ssd. But since like idk 4-5months when I did after a driver update my laptop stutters for everything. I can’t play a game and have discord opened. And when I play something the game starts stuttering for several seconds and the sound too. Then it starts working slowly again and then idk maybe 10mins after it does it again.
Ok that sounds strange.. I assume your Crucial SSD have some problems.
@@Beisepimp Both SSD´s are from different companys. And I got the E-Sport Games on my fast Crucial SSD and the other games on my normal SSD. But still it lags on both, my whole pc stutters for some seconds. I bought more RAM now. Maybe it could be that a fan is broken? Plus idk why but when my pc starts it always shows me a screen where it says which installed Windows I want to use. So it says Windows 5 and Windows 10, I think I downloaded it twice.
@@kiwi3803 Something with your Windows installation seems off, but when you have a broken fan i assume you get high temperatures?
@@Beisepimp I have 60 or max 78 I have no clue if it is bad for the CPU that I have. I got an i5-7300HQ maybe 78 is to much?
@@kiwi3803 Hm no, 80 is still "alright" for this CPU.
i have some laptop LEGION Y520 spec - intel i7 7700 - nvidia gtx 1050 4gb vram - ram 24gb 2666 ghz - ssd 1tb nvme, 128gb sata why i used play valorant always low client fps ? maybe u have solution for me please ?
Hi, no idea what the problem could be, since your CPU is better and you have more RAM. Is this only in valorant or also in other games aswell? 🙂
Hi I'm thinking about buying the same style laptop but there is an Rx560 Is there any big difference between Gtx 1050 and Rx560? i would use it for gaming of course.
Hi, the GTX 1050 should be around 5% faster according to some websites. :-)
@@Beisepimp Okay thank you so much for replying
@@BeisepimpHii can i get a little help again? I bought a laptop everything is the same only the rx 560 and it's nothing close to this I can't even open overwatch and i have only around 30 fps around games do you have any idea for it?
@@mintz1058 Do you also have the same amount of ram in dual channel and SSD? Temperatures also alright? I never had a RX 560 in a laptop, i've checked some website where it was mentioned it should be not that much of a difference. Does it have 2GB or 4GB of VRAM? Do you also installed the latest drivers?
i have ddr4 dual with 16gb i have two ssd, its says something like Intel(R) HD graphics 630 instead of the amd 560 im still learning about the builds but i feel like its something not okay and i probably messed up but thank you for your reply :) also my right side of the laptop is usually a bit then later on hot the other side remains cold i opened dxdiag and its says the first monitor is the intel the second is the rx560 its says Full memory 12gb monitor memory 4gb Shared memory 8 gb dam i have no literally info how to use these two monitor
Playing on a external monitor will affect perfomance badly right?
Only if you are using a different resolution . :-)
@@Beisepimpits still 1080p but games seem to run worse
@@zeacons957 Strange, if your monitor in your laptop is also running at 1080p, it should be the same.
Hi, I have the same specs cpu, gpu, ssd, and ram but valorant barely reaches 120 stable fps, and i have frame drops all the time, idk whats the problem:((
Hi, is your temperature alright from the CPU/GPU ?
I am facing the same issue, GTA V hardly gets 60 FPS, framedrops occur all the time
Cpu is bottlenecking the gpu, this is why you get fps drops all the time
test rcpc3 emulater games like god of war 3
Which preset did you use in gta 5?
You can see the settings , i've choosed always in the first seconds of each game. GTA V was running on "very high" .
Hello, people of the Internet, I'm writing this comment from a Lenovo Legion Y520! Overall, very decent laptop! Still performs well even in recent games (except for Alan Wake 2 aka the worst-optimized crap ever). Mine has the Core i7-7700HQ and GTX 1050 4 GB. It originally came with 8 GB RAM and 1 TB HDD, no SSD, but it got upgraded to 16 GB RAM + additional 256 GB SSD for my birthday last year. Build quality is good too! Sadly, it's battery is practically dead nowadays and it's network card is broken so I have to use a LAN cable to connect to the Net. Still, it's a fast laptop even in 2024!
Hi, nice that you still have this laptop! For e-sports games, it's still great. Alan Wake 2 uses mesh shaders, the GTX 1050 does not have these, so it's normal that the performance is crap. :D
i ve been struggling to run PUBG on the very same laptop. It is stuttering constantly making it impossible to play. any tips? Many other games i ve tried are running okey but PUBG
I have never played PUBG, so i can not give that many advice. Are other battle royal games also running fine on your laptop?
@@Beisepimp yes. I tried apex and it worked fine on low specs. I'm not into quality... I just want to play it smoothly. I understand that y520 specs are quite outdated
I have the same laptop, but always was very slow for games like gta, fortnite and that style. How could a make it faster
Hi, do you have the same config? 16GB of RAM and a SSD inside?
Maybe you using the integrated instead of the dedicated gpu
i have same laptop but i will try to play game but game not play smoth plz any help ?
Hi, do you have same specs? RAM , SSD etc?
Oh and can you do one with minecraft too with shaders
He can't he sold the laptop
Which one is better legion y520 or ideapad gaming 3?
With which config inside? 🙂
What program you use for monitoring?
OBS on my main PC , i have a capture card for recording. 🙂
@@Beisepimp I mean the stats in the upper left corner
@@elf8769 MSI Afterburner. 🙂
I hvae this y520 laptop.... Im switched from 128gb nvme ssd to 2tbnvme ssd and from 1tb hdd to 1tb ssd and from 8 gb ram to 32gb ram. Baldurgate3 Runs with 30 fps optimized good.
Nice! :D
Esta Pc estaría bien para jugar Gta v roleplay?
how do you lock your cpu at its maximum performance? i have the same laptop and with the same specs
Hi, i did nothing special. The laptop was cleaned for fresh thermalpaste and not many background programs. 🙂
@@Beisepimp do you play on ssd?
@@zoku5151 Yes. 🙂
@@Beisepimp did you experience any stutters? im encountering stutters. is it because im playing on HDD? my system files are on ssd tho
@@zoku5151 Are you getting these stutters in every game or in some? In which games do you get these more often?
how do you cool your laptop this well?
New thermalpaste & had a laptop cooler . :-)
@@Beisepimp was that enough?
How much fps u think when u play minecarft vannila with recording on that laptop
It depends on the recording software and settings. I never tested this CPU with recording, but it should work fine in 1080p. 🙂
@@Beisepimp tq for replying
@@Jayr-kz5gl 200-300 fps
MY LENOVO Y520 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz 2.80GHz 16 GB RAM GTX 1060 6GB
The performance i assume will be much better? 🙂
I have the exact same specs just with a 1060 6gb instead of the 1050 4gb I only get 10-20 fps more than u in most games the 1050 is still a decently good graphics card
Good to know, thanks! :D
How are you getting 180 avg on valorant while im getting only 90ish on low
Hi, do you have the exact same settings and laptop?
@@Beisepimp the only difference is in the ram i guess mine is only 8gb that's the only reason i could think of the rest is the same
@@tertzero So i assume that this will make a big difference with this CPU. 🙂
@@Beisepimp i think that's the case
@@tertzero Dual channel + more RAM is always better. 🙂
My 2 vram gpu runs very well ❤
Pasa configuración pa
is still worth it this year for coding ( i7 version)
Since, i don't have that much of experience in that i can not give you a clear answer sorry! If it's a 8 thread i7, it should be still okay.
What about warzone 2?
Hi, i don't have this laptop right now, so i can not test that out sorry! :/
@@Beisepimp awhh it's okay nice vidss thoo
Hi my freind i will buy this laptop for 350$ dolars lenovo legion y520 I7 7700hq Ram 16 Gtx 1060 6gb max q Hdd 2tb Ssd 256 Display 1080p Is still worth in 2024 and how deference bettwen gtx 1050 / 1060 max q 6gb
Since, i've never had a 1060 max q i can not give a clear answer. It should be far better than this GTX 1050. But since you have a 6GB GPU and an i7 , you should run these e-sports titles very well in 2024. :-)
Please trying do Fivem with 300 player
I will take a look on GTA online in the future, at the moment I don't have the time unfortunately. :/
FiveM on the same config is hit or miss depeneds on the server optimisation i played on a 100-200 player server on a graphics mod and still had stutters the cpu is weak and for fiveM the cpu is more important
Пойдет ли на нем такие игры как кс2 человек паук ремастер фортнаит ?
Hi , Fortnite should work in performance modus. CS2 i can not say, since i don't have the laptop right now.. For Spiderman i have tested that game in this video. 🙂
Is this good for more recent AAA titles like assassin's creed Valhalla, starfield, hogwarts, etc?
In the video, you can see the performance for Hogwarts. 🙂 Valhalla i assume also around 30 FPS and Starfield should be to much for this config. :/
Is it good for pubg? Question
Hi, should run on low/medium with 60+ FPS , but with some stutters because of the CPU . 🙂
apex actually anihilates my lenovo, dunno why tho even with way lower res it isnt fluid at all
Do you also have the same settings & a SSD ?
@@Beisepimp yep i have an ssd in it and apex runned great the first seasons but now it just tears apart, same in fortnite, cant get stable 60 fps on everything low and even lower Res. I thought its due to all this new updates over the years. Probably CPU bottleneck overall same as in WoW when you encounter many other players the cpu demand rises
@@Beisepimp thanks for the answer at all for so long ago this vid came out tho. Anyways im getting a new laptop soon i guess in same price range. This lenovo is literally the best ive had in a long time, cheap, good material compared to my MSI before
@@semiramisubw4864 I've had also a MSi laptop and was also not that happy with it. The temps were not great..
bruh i have the exact same laptop but i get 70fps on cs with major drops sometimes 😭😭
Do you also have dual channel 16GB of RAM? And a SSD? 🙂
@@Beisepimp yeah :(, i think i fixed it tho. for some reason i had to go into bios and change some settings to let me change the laptop use it’s gpu instead of it’s integrated graphics
Can you test on fortnite plsssss
I don't have this laptop anymore, so i can not test it sorry! :-(
how does it get so many fps.
Do you get less with the same config?
@@BeisepimpHow many fps do you get in a normal 5v5 match? I'm thinking of buying a second hand i7 7700hq gtx 1070 8gb laptop for temporary use.
@@Whos3lf Which game? CS2? I don't have this laptop right now, since i've sold it, so i can not tell sorry.
Lol i7 7700hq and gtx 1070 is real good dude@@Whos3lf
@@Beisepimpпойдет мортал комбат 11
Prueba con el warzone 2.0 a mi no me pasa de los 20 fps y eso que tengo las mismas específicas y 24gb ram
Warzone is very CPU intensiv, so i assume a big bottleneck.
