Testing and Performance – Gaming

Far Cry New Dawn

The unusual screen resolution of 2,560×1,600 clashes with Far Cry New Dawn and means we had to test at 1,920×1,200 rather than at 1,920×1,080. In addition the Lenovo has RTX 3060 graphics which are overshadowed by the competition yet despite that the frame rates are good and the gaming experience is very acceptable.

Far Cry 6

It's the same story about testing resolution in Far Cry 6 and once again the Lenovo Legion struggles slightly however the frame rates are fine and we had no problem playing this demanding game.

Watch Dogs: Legion

Watch Dogs: Legion was happy to run at the conventional 1,920×1,080 resolution however the frame rates were borderline for smooth game play and it might be a good move to drop the IQ setting from Ultra High to something less demanding.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy

We found that Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy rocked along happily at 1080p on the Lenovo Legion and chalked up another success for this mid-priced laptop.
