Lenovo Y540 Thermal Testing - Hot or Not?

The Lenovo Legion Y540 15” gaming laptop performs quite well in games, but how hot does it get? In this testing we’ll take a detailed look at performance, see if there is any throttling caused by thermal or power limits, and find out what can be done to improve gaming performance and temperatures.

I’ll investigate undervolting, overclocking, and show you how hot the laptop gets while gaming and under combined CPU and GPU stress test with different settings, let you listen to total system fan noise, test with a cooling pad and see hot spots with a thermal camera. We’ll also see how the quiet, balanced and performance modes affect results with the latest BIOS update.
