Re: Battlefield 1 on my Lenovo Legion Go portable handheld gaming PC

What optimization steps did i perform on my Lenovo Legio Go handheld PC (after being banned by EA)?
-I updated the BIOS to version 26
-I set 4 GB VRAM in the BIOS (in the beta BIOS you can choose between 6 and 8 GB of VRAM)
-I updated the GPU driver and AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition (date 2023-11-28)


Here is my screenshot with DirectX Diagnostic Tool:

    my new experiment:
    I bought a USB docking station that has an HDMI port.
    And I connected the Lenovo Legion Go handheld PC to my Samsung TV with this dock.

    I tried to optimize the Lenovo Legion Go handheld console a little more for the BF1 game.
    I updated the BIOS (v28, release date 2023-12-07).
    I increased the VRAM first to 6 GB and then 8 Gb.
    But it was not possible to get 60 FPS with "1920 x 1200, 60 Hz, High graphics quality" settings.


    My photo shows the the physical size difference between Lenovo Legion Go (2023) and PlayStation Vita (2012):

    I updated the BIOS of my Lenovo Legion Go console to the latest, version 29.
    After that I set automatic VRAM allocation in this new BIOS (new feature).
    According to dxdiag.exe 420 MB VRAM is reserved in this mode.
    And the BF1 game crashed after my first try.

    I tested the new AMD gpu driver for Lenovo Legion Go with the Battlefield 1 game (shocking result for me). With the previous AMD graphic driver I had ~60 fps with high settings (1200p, 60 Hz, 6 GB VRAM). Now I have 30-40 fps with the driver released yesterday (v31.0.24028.1001).

    On the Lenovo Legion Go subreddit, many players recommend AMD's graphics driver instead of the factory Lenovo Legion Go igpu driver.
    I tested the latest AMD 780M graphics driver (release date 2024-05-15) with BF1.
