Full Speed Fan; Adjustable Refresh Rate; Controller Vibration; Button Combinations - Lenovo Legion Go 8APU1 User Manual

Full Speed Fan

The system fan can help the CPU dissipate the heat so that it can work for a long time without
malfunctioning. To dissipate the heat more quickly, Full Speed Fan mode is preset in the Legion Space app.
Generally, the system fan provides sufficient cooling when you use Legion Go for work and study. When you
begin to play a demanding game, you may want the console to cool down rapidly. In this case, you can
enable Full Speed Fan mode in the Performance section of the Legion Space app.
Note: The faster the fan spins, the more heat can be dissipated. However, a faster fan speed also leads to
excessive power consumption and shortens its life cycle.

Adjustable refresh rate

Your eyes might not notice it but the content displayed on the screen refreshes constantly. The display
refresh rate refers to the number of times per second the screen content refreshes itself and is measured in
hertz (Hz).
A refresh rate of 60 Hz is adequate for most situations and is energy efficient. However, when viewing videos
or playing video games, a higher refresh rate usually provides a smoother viewing experience.
The display of Legion Go supports dual refresh rates. You can manually switch the display to work at either a
higher or lower refresh rate. The settings can be found in Settings ➙ System ➙ Display. You can also
switch the refresh rate in the Display section of the Legion Space app.

Controller vibration

When you are playing games, the built-in motor of the controller vibrates to simulate some gaming effects
such as impacts and strikes.
Four vibration levels are preset in the controllers—off, low, medium, and strong. The motor is set to the
medium level by default, and you can switch the motor to other levels by pressing the button combination of
Legion L and D-pad Up/Down key.
When you toggle between different levels, the controller vibrates for two seconds to indicate that the switch
is successful.

Button combinations

Button combinations provide an alternative way to perform tasks more easily and quickly.
