The lenovo vantage sucks and i cant change my performance modes and i lost custom mode which reduces my performance in editing and games
if there is no fix in the current one, is there any way i can go back to the old version
#Vantage no longer includes performance modes

it used to look like this (i found this image in google)

mine looks like this, get rid of vantage garbage, and download lenovo legion toolkit
its a less bloaty version of vantage, that allows you to OC if you want, and set custom fan curves

Ohhh
Ok noted ill comeback anf try it out
My history with software like these are not that great

Yup, you don't even need to uninstall vantage if you don't want. The toolkit will turn it off in the background for ya.

hello so far its nice to use
i do have a question tho what should i put here when i wan t the best performance

I have two power plans. Balanced, and high performance. I made some tweaks under those power plans, but that was up to me. So, when under balanced performance plan, it was also under balanced power mode. And high performance power mode with high performance power plan on the laptop.
Or, you can just keep one power plan for all settings. That's up to you.
You can also look into how to disable aggressive mode for "processor performance boost mode" which can help temps by almost 20c. It basically sets your cpu at base clock speeds, so it offloads most of the work onto your gpu. Great for certain games.
You can also very easily turn things off or back to aggressive if you want as well

and also im not sure if i can enable overdrive (for display) since im not sure if LOQ can support it or cause instability

Aggressive mode that I was referring too is a hidden cpu tweak you can enable changing a registry file. It tells the cpu to never go above its rated speeds.

wait how

wait how
Default is set to aggressive. Like I said, I have toolkit setup so when I'm on balanced mode or lower it also runs balanced power mode, with processor boost set to disabled.
I have a custom performance plan and the regular performance plan "red light" setup with a high performance power mode where the cpunis set to effecient aggressive.
What i linked above is easily controlled and there is zero risk to your pc.
The default cpu setting is aggressive. So you can either lookup what the others do, or tinker and see which one works best for you. Efficient aggressive performs as well as aggressive, only sucks up a little less power thus generating a little less heat. Try it off, and test out your games. You may find you don't need it on at all and save your cpu 20c

ohh ok
