Help me diagnose my laptop

Really desperate at this point. Yesterday my legion 5i gen 10 had a black screen upon switching on the laptop (keyboard lights, fans, windows log in sound all there) and numerous attempts at holding down the power button and switching on didnt work. ONCE I tried a tip of fn+s+v and my screen booted up for 20 seconds before going black and I have not been able to replicate that.

So, I plugged in my external monitor and I was getting a little windows logo when I start before it also goes black. I ended up going into safe mode and disabling my gpu, this allowed me to boot up in normal mode using the generic drivers, indicating that the gpu/drivers are the issue. I redownloaded an older version of the gpu drivers, the screen went black mid install and never came back.

Genuinely what do I do? I can boot into safe mode disable my gpu drivers but how do I actually fix this? I spent like 5 hours yesterday to come back to square one I’m desperate for this to work again.

Legion 5i Black Screen

I’ve seen loads of reddit posts on this in the past but I’ve no idea what to do. 5 month old legion 5i gen 10, worked perfectly so far and I don’t do anything crazy on it or with it. Black screen when booting up earlier, fans start whirring and it makes the sound as if windows has opened up. Tried connecting to external monitor and nothing. Please help I’m gonna tweak

Buying used ram

I’m looking to upgrade my legion’s ram, it’s currently using 1 16gb stick of ddr5 4800mts ram, and i want to make it 32. The new market is so expensive so I thought I’d take a look elsewhere and found some decent prices.

The only thing is i’ve no idea how to judge ‘good’ ram and if there’s anything I can ask the seller to verify. Any advice on what to look for/ask is appreciated. These are the sticks I’m currently looking at, looks suitable?

I've had 5 50/50s, the last 4 50/50s I have lost, all at 75+ pulls and the following guarantees at 75+ pulls. It's literally impossible to plan for any team when every fucking banner I get shafted and if I don't pay up I'm stuck for the next few months with incomplete teams. load of bs

I usually get around 300mbps when I'm downloading/updating games on Steam but today I can't get more than 2mbps trying to update CS2 and my wifi speeds on the online speed tests are the same. I have no clue whats going on and can't really find anything online

I got my legion at the start of the new year and I haven't done anything internally with it, it basically sits as a desktop and I play pretty much everyday. I want to try cleaning dust but I'm too nooby to risk opening it up, is there effective ways to clean it without opening up, or risk free ways to open just to clean the fans

I recently figured out how to undervolt my 5070 i723650hx laptop and the difference is amazing, much lower temps and fan speeds without a hitch in performance. After the initial understanding it only took like 5 mins to set up as well. I scroll this sub a lot and there's always stuff about temps but it's always cooling pad as a reply and never undervolting. Is there something im missing? Are there negatives or barriers to entry for this?
