Path of Exile 2 Lenovo Legion Go Performance First Impressions

I have played for about three hours today and not a single crash. The whole time it has been plugged in and I’ve tested multiple settings, configurations and sadly I can’t get it to lock to 60 FPS even using the lowest settings possible.

I have finally towards the end of my trial run found what I believe is a good compromise for people looking towards quality and battery life by running the game at 30 FPS even though I can’t get it to lock at 30 exactly but with VeSync set on adaptive makes things more comfortable.

I’ll share my settings right here with you for a performance based decent image quality that will not destroy your battery and not make you run the fan at max speed in order to keep temperatures below 80°. In short, it’ll be suitable for portable and plug plugged in play alongside, switching between town and game world.

  • Full screen mode
  • Adaptive VSync (which allows you to get closer to 60 FPS and not feel disconnected from the gameplay alongside the settings that I’m sharing. It just depends if you can handle jumping between 45 and 60 FPS).
  • 1600x900
  • FSR Quality
  • Medium textures
  • 16X filtering
  • lights set to global illumination
  • high sun shadow (might need to lower during sunny levels since I found major drops during the King Rust area)
  • high number of lights
  • water detail High but might as well lower it in the red forest.
  • triple Buffering is on and engine multithreading

These settings have allowed me to travel from town to the game world and encounter big horns of monsters and rarely if ever drop below 30 FPS. You might do good to lower the resolution one slot lower and maybe lower the filtering filter from 16 times to something more reasonable, but I’ll be further testing and I hope to get someone else’s input to see what has worked for them.

I also want to congratulate the path of exile to developers for implementing so many technologies and honestly delivering an early access high-quality release with good server capacity so far.
