Best RAM for Lenovo Legion Go & Performance Optimization Matrix
The Lenovo Legion Go features a stunning 1600p high-refresh screen powered by 16GB of soldered LPDDR5X-7500. Because the high-resolution panel demands large VRAM allocations, builders are forced to compromise between VRAM allocation and system RAM limits, making proper UMA partitioning essential.

UMA Frame Buffer Advice
The Legion Go uses 16GB of soldered LPDDR5X memory running at 7500 MT/s. To optimize gaming, enter the BIOS by holding Volume Up and pressing Power during startup. Set UMA Frame Buffer to 6G (Auto can occasionally trigger stutter issues in games like FC24 or Alan Wake 2).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I install SO-DIMM RAM in the Lenovo Legion Go?▼
No. The Legion Go does not have SO-DIMM slots; the LPDDR5X memory chips are soldered directly to the main circuit board to keep the console slim and run at 7500 MT/s.
Is 6GB the best UMA frame buffer setting for Legion Go?▼
Yes. 6GB is widely considered the sweet spot for the Legion Go because it gives the integrated graphics enough memory for 1200p or 1600p textures while leaving 10GB for Windows.
