windows would probably work out the box and will likely never fail like linux does

  • mint

  • extra software and kernel stuff
  • many distros supported
  • mentions high fan speed

some mentions of „battery saver mode“ and nvidia gpu misbehaving with old driver.

thanks, will explore a bit

i had to manually install the latest drivers because nothing else worked so old drivers isnt a problem. i also tried ubuntu, arch (standalone), garuda (arch based), mint and all had this problem. didnt find any info on lenovolegionlinux so will check it out

what i did find was a lot of people having problems with linux on this exact laptop
