Ryzen 5 6600H performance debut: Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ARH7 Laptop Review

AMD Zen 3+ for cheap. The Lenovo gaming laptop costs only $800 USD and it comes with AMD's latest generation Zen3+ H-series processor. Based on what we've seen so far, however, you may be better off finding a laptop with the older Ryzen 7 5800H instead if CPU performance is priority.

The IdeaPad Gaming 3 series is home to some of Lenovo's most inexpensive gaming laptops to contrast the midrange Legion 5 Pro series and higher-end Legion 7 series. This latest 2022 model is notable for being one of the first to carry the AMD Zen 3+ Ryzen 5 6600H CPU to replace the 10th gen Intel solution in the 2020 IdeaPad Gaming 3i. It also introduces a new chassis design to further distinguish itself from older generation models.

Configurations include either the Ryzen 5 6600H or Ryzen 7 6800H CPU with either the 85 W GeForce RTX 3050 or 3050 Ti GPU. The same 120 Hz 1080p IPS panel is on all SKUs. Our specific review unit with the 6600H, RTX 3050, 256 GB SSD, and 8 GB RAM is the lowest-end option for approximately $800 USD retail.

Competitors include other budget 15.6- or 16-inch gaming laptops like the Acer Nitro 5, HP Victus, Asus TUF Dash 15, or the MSI GF series.

Case — New Look Inspired By Legion

The redesigned chassis can be best described as a cheaper version of the Legion 5; whereas the latter consists mostly of metal alloy, the new IdeaPad Gaming 3 15 is mostly polycarbonate and plastic. The most noticeable visual change from the 2020 IdeaPad design relates to the new rear design intended to improve cooling but at the cost of a larger footprint and heavier weight.

Chassis rigidity is pretty good around the base as twists and depressions are minimal relative to other inexpensive gaming laptops like the MSI GF63 or or HP Pavilion Gaming 15. The hinges, however, are a different story as the display tends to teeter more than we would like when adjusting angles. Creaking becomes audible when the display is opened all the way which could be a potential problem several years down the line.

When compared to the 2020 IdeaPad Gaming 3, our 2022 model is larger and heavier by about 200 g. It's also thinner by a few millimeters, but the slightly thinner profile does little to appease the noticeably bulkier chassis. The size and weight gain can be attributed to the new elongated rear inspired by the Legion series.

Connectivity — No Thunderbolt Support

Port options are decent and comparable to other budget gaming laptops. Port positioning is a mixed bag, however, since most ports are along the rear of the unit where they can be difficult to reach. Keep in mind that Thunderbolt is not supported unlike on many Intel-powered gaming laptops.

Communication

The unit ships with a Realtek RTL8852BE for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity instead of an Intel AX module likely to save on costs. Transfer rates are significantly slower, but they are nevertheless steady and fast enough for most purposes including 4K video streaming or downloads.

Maintenance — Too Difficult To Open

The bottom panel is very difficult to remove. It is secured by 12 Philips screws, but only 8 are easily accessible. To access the other 4, the rear shell must be detached first which is secured by 2 more screws near the back ports. Removing this rear shell from the body is an extra step not present on most other gaming laptops. It's clear that Lenovo didn't design the IdeaPad Gaming 3 15 to be easily upgradeable by the end user which is a shame since there are actually many upgrade paths including 2x SODIMM slots and 2x M.2 storage bays.

Accessories and Warranty

There are no extras in the box beyond the AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited warranty applies if purchased in the US.

Input Devices — Classic IdeaPad

Keyboard

The letters and symbols on each key are now white whereas they were light blue on the 2020 IdeaPad Gaming 3i. Otherwise, everything from the size and feel of the keys remain unchanged for essentially the same typing experience between the two models despite all the chassis changes. Key feedback is on the light and shallow side to be similar to many budget to midrange Ultrabooks like the Asus VivoBook or standard IdeaPad.

A two-level white backlight comes standard to illuminate the printing on each key including the smaller secondary symbols.

Touchpad

The clickpad is larger than the clickpad on the MSI Bravo 15 (12.5 x 7.5 cm vs. 10.5 x 6.5 cm). Unfortunately, both traction and feedback are stickier and spongier, respectively, than on most other laptops for a poorer user experience. The finger sticks frequently when gliding at medium speeds and clicking isn't satisfying because of the squishy feedback.

Display — FreeSync And 120 Hz Come Standard

Positive traits about the display include support for native 120 Hz refresh rate and FreeSync. Black-white and gray-gray response times are also decent at about 9 to 10 ms each. For gaming purposes, the display gets the job done when it comes to minimizing ghosting and screen tearing.

The worst aspect about the display is its limited color profile at just 58 percent of sRGB to be indicative of a budget panel unfit for most editors. Lenovo wants users to upgrade to its Legion series of laptops instead for improved colors and a brighter backlight since there are no other display options to choose from on this particular IdeaPad model.

Note that while the panel here shares the same LEN156FHD ID as on the ThinkBook 15 G4 or IdeaPad 5 15ALC05, they are still very different in certain aspects. For example, the displays on the aforementioned ThinkBook or IdeaPad 5 do not support 120 Hz or FreeSync.

The display is not calibrated at factory which is to be expected for a budget gaming laptop. Nonetheless, average grayscale and color deltaE values out of the box actually aren't terrible at 4 and 6.3, respectively. Calibrating the display ourselves would improve these values to 1.8 and 2.53, respectively, but saturated colors remain very inaccurate due to the narrow gamut mentioned above.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
18.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 10 ms rise
↘ 8.4 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 37 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.1 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey

The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 29 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.1 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 17263 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is not any better or worse than most other budget or even high-end gaming laptops since these types of systems are not designed to be used outdoors on a frequent basis. You'll want to work under shade whenever possible or else the screen becomes washed out.

Performance

Testing Conditions

Our unit was set to Performance mode in both Windows and the pre-installed Lenovo Vantage software prior to running the benchmarks below. We also made sure that the Nvidia GPU was active via the Nvidia control panel and that the Global Graphics settings on the Radeon software was set to Standard. It's recommended that users become familiar with both Vantage and the Radeon software as they serve as control hubs for Lenovo updates and most display settings, respectively.

There is no MUX switch which is to be expected on a budget gaming machine.

Processor — Performs Like The Ryzen 5 5600H

The Zen 3 Ryzen 5 5600H was already an appreciable boost over the Zen 2 Ryzen 5 4600H. Thus, moving from the Zen 3 Ryzen 5 5600H to the Zen3+ Ryzen 5 6600H is expected to offer just minor CPU benefits at best. The benefits are so minor, in fact, that benchmark results are nearly the same between them. The Gigabyte A5 K1 with the 5600H, for example, is within just a few percentage points from the 6600H in our Lenovo. The last generation Ryzen 7 5800H or Core i7-11800H are therefore still faster processors hands down.

See our dedicated page on the Ryzen 5 6600H for an overview of the processor.

Storage Devices — Up To Two PCIe4 x4 SSDs

Though the system can support up to two M.2 PCIe4 x4 NVMe SSDs simultaneously, the 256 GB PCIe4 x4 Lenovo AM630 SSD in our test unit is slow relative to other PCIe4 x4 SSDs. The Samsung PM9A1, for example, can reach speeds of up to 7000 MB/s compared to only ~3000 MB/s on our IdeaPad. Furthermore, the drive in our unit would throttle down to the 2000 MB/s range when running DiskSpd in a loop as shown by the graph below meaning it can't sustain its maximum transfer rates for long periods. For a budget gaming laptop, however, this isn't a particularly critical complaint.

GPU Performance

Graphics performance is about 15 percent faster than the average laptop in our database equipped with the same GeForce RTX 3050 GPU. Upgrading to the RTX 3050 Ti will likely only boost performance by another 10 percent based on our experience with other RTX 3050 Ti laptops. Users looking for an RTX 3060 option will have to consider the pricier Legion series instead.

Performance is reduced if running on the Balanced power profile. A Fire Strike test on Balanced mode would reduce Graphics performance by 8 percent (14157 vs. 12978 points) while CPU performance remains about the same.
