Yeah

Hi, did you run the laptop in iGPU mode yet? I’m curious how much is the battery consumption. Thanks

On the slim 7i gen 8, the laptop have issue that it unable to shut off power for the dGPU in cold boot. In Vantage and LLT will show that it is iGPU mode only but the dGPU still consume power like 8-10W. So every time I turn on the system even in sleep mode, I have to swap from iGPU -> Hybrid-> iGPU again for the laptop to fully cut power to the dGPU. This will lower 8-10W, so from 25-30W total on battery to 15-20W total on battery, extend the battery life. This is a bug that Lenovo never fix on the Intel version of Slim 7 gen 8. It gets very annoying ever time I use the laptop.

@@TrungLe-dw1mm Good afternoon. I have not. I personally do not have a need to run the laptop on that configuration. To be honest, I purchased the machine for its NVIDIA card. From what I gather from your posts, you had issues when you would go back and forth between the onboard video and the NVIDIA card, correct?

Have you run a time spy benchmark on it? I’m looking at this same laptop and have been trying to find someone’s timespy.

@@joshuaharding6216 I have not. I had to return the machine. There was something wrong with the hinge and squeaked every time I would closed the lid. If you can afford the cost, I would contact Lenovo and see if you can negotiate a discount on the Legion Pro 7i, which is what I ended up getting. Runs a bunch cooler.

I purchased one today and the noise was almost non-existent during my normal use. I am certain if gaming, the fans would ramp up.

Source?

Do you want me to game on iGPU mode and let you know how much wattage it consumes?
