Aiuto Lenovo Legion 5-15IMH05 Repair: scopri come ripararlo da solo.

The Lenovo Legion 5-15IMH05 is a 15.6-inch gaming laptop that Lenovo released in 2020 as part of their Legion 5 lineup. Gaming laptops became a distinct product category in the early 2000s when manufacturers started building portable computers specifically capable of running demanding games and graphics applications. These machines have found uses beyond gaming—people use them for video editing, 3D rendering, programming, and other tasks that need substantial processing power.

This model runs on 10th generation Intel Core processors and comes with NVIDIA GeForce GTX dedicated graphics. It supports up to 16GB of DDR4 RAM and uses M.2 NVMe slots for storage. The screen refresh rate varies by configuration, with options for 120Hz or 144Hz displays.

The laptop's design allows users to access internal components by removing the bottom panel. You can swap out or upgrade the RAM, storage drives, Wi-Fi card, and battery without needing special equipment. The cooling system uses two fans and several heat pipes to move heat away from the CPU and GPU. Typical maintenance involves cleaning accumulated dust from the fans, reapplying thermal paste when temperatures rise, and replacing batteries that no longer hold a charge.

Lenovo's gaming laptops include several lines: the IdeaPad Gaming series at the entry level, the Legion 5 in the middle range, and the Legion 7 for higher-end performance. The Legion 5-15IMH05 sits in that middle tier.

The Legion 5-15IMH05 measures approximately 363mm wide, 260mm deep, and 23.6mm thick, with a weight around 2.3kg. The laptop has a black plastic chassis with Legion branding prominently displayed on the lid. Some configurations include a backlit Legion logo. The 15.6-inch display has relatively slim bezels on the sides with a thicker bottom bezel containing the Lenovo name.

To confirm you have the correct model before ordering parts or following repair guides, check the label on the bottom panel. This sticker displays the full model name (Lenovo Legion 5-15IMH05), the type number (beginning with 82AU), and the serial number. The bottom panel also features a textured pattern and visible vent grilles for the cooling system.

You can also verify your model through software. The Lenovo Vantage app displays detailed system information, or you can check Windows System Information by navigating to Control Panel > System. Pressing F1 during startup opens the BIOS, which also shows the model number.

The key distinguishing feature of the 15IMH05 variant is its use of Intel processors—specifically the Core i5-10300H or i7-10750H from Intel's 10th generation. This sets it apart from the similar-looking 15ARH05, which uses AMD Ryzen processors instead. The keyboard layout includes a dedicated number pad on the right side, and the power button is integrated into the keyboard deck rather than being a separate button.

This model was primarily available in Phantom Black, though regional variations may exist.
