The Lenovo LOQ 15IRX9 is a gaming laptop with a footprint of 359 mm wide by 258 mm deep and a thickness of just 21 mm, resulting in an overall volume of 1945.062 cm³. It weighs 2380 g and is equipped with a backlit keyboard for low-light use. The chassis does not use a fanless design and is not weather-sealed, so it lacks splash resistance. A two-year warranty is included with the device.
The laptop features a 15.6″ LED-backlit IPS LCD panel with a 1920 x 1080 px resolution and a pixel density of 141 ppi. It operates at a 144Hz refresh rate, making it well-suited for fast-paced content, and offers a typical brightness of 300 nits alongside an anti-reflection coating to reduce glare. The display does not support touch input, and the system is capable of driving up to four connected displays simultaneously.
The system is powered by a CPU running six cores at 2.4 GHz and four cores at 1.8 GHz, with a turbo boost reaching 4.6 GHz, 16 threads, and a 4 nm semiconductor process, while multithreading and 64-bit support are both enabled. It comes with 32GB of DDR5 RAM at 4800 MHz across two memory slots, which also represents the maximum supported memory capacity. Storage is handled by a 1024GB NVMe SSD using flash memory over a PCIe 4 interface. On the graphics side, the GPU runs at a base clock of 1605 MHz with a turbo of 2370 MHz, backed by 6GB of GDDR6 VRAM, and delivers 12.13 TFLOPS of floating-point performance, a texture rate of 204.8 GTexels/s, and a pixel rate of 113.76 GPixel/s, with support for DirectX 12 Ultimate but no XeSS capability.
In CPU benchmarking, the laptop scores 2337 in Geekbench 6 single-core and 11891 in Geekbench 6 multi-core, reflecting the processor's multi-threaded capability. The overall PassMark result stands at 25071, with a single-core PassMark score of 3553. For graphics, the PassMark G3D test returns a score of 17148, providing a measure of the GPU's rendering throughput.
The laptop's port selection includes three USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports and one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, while Thunderbolt 3 and 4, USB 4, DisplayPort, mini DisplayPort, and VGA outputs are all absent. Video output is handled by a single HDMI 2.1 port, and there is no external memory card slot. Wired networking is covered by one RJ45 port, and wireless connectivity spans Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) along with backward-compatible Wi-Fi 5 and Wi-Fi 4 standards, complemented by Bluetooth 5.2. AirPlay is also supported.
The laptop is equipped with a 60 Wh battery and includes sleep-and-charge USB ports, allowing connected devices to be charged even when the system is in a low-power state. It does not use a MagSafe power adapter.
For audio, the laptop features stereo speakers, a 3.5 mm headset jack, and two built-in microphones, though Dolby Atmos and S/PDIF output are not included. A front camera is present, but there is no fingerprint scanner, 3D facial recognition, or voice command support. On the graphics side, the system supports both ray tracing and DLSS, expanding options for visually demanding applications. A stylus is not included, and the device lacks an optical disc drive, GPS, gyroscope, accelerometer, and compass.
The CPU carries a clock multiplier of 24, a 115W TDP, a maximum operating temperature of 100 °C, and an unlocked multiplier, while using big.LITTLE technology and supporting the NX bit, ECC memory, and instruction sets including SSE 4.1, SSE 4.2, AVX, AES, FMA3, F16C, and MMX. It includes 16 MB of L2 cache and 20 MB of L3 cache, operates across two memory channels with a maximum RAM speed of 4800 MHz, and integrates UHD Graphics 710 with 16 execution units alongside the discrete GPU. The discrete GPU is built on the Ada Lovelace architecture and features 2560 shading units, 80 texture mapping units, 48 ROPs, a 96-bit memory bus, a GPU memory speed of 2000 MHz, an effective memory speed of 16000 MHz, and a maximum memory bandwidth of 192 GB/s. The system contains 18900 million transistors, supports Intel Resizable BAR, stereoscopic 3D, multi-display output, Double Precision Floating Point, OpenCL 3 and OpenGL 4.6, and does not include LHR.
