CPU
The Lenovo Yoga 9i 82BG000CUS touch-screen laptop is a notebook PC equipped
with an 11th Gen Intel Core i7-1185G7 mobile processor. It is a
power-efficient quad-core SoC for laptops and Ultrabooks based on the Tiger
Lake-U generation. It features four Willow Cove processor cores with 8
threads. The processor has a clock rate of 3 GHz with a Turbo Boost of up to
4.8 GHz. It has three levels of cache memory from 320 KB to 12 MB level 3
cache memory with a power consumption of 28W (can be adjusted by the
manufacturer from 12 to 28 watts), thus it is designed well for
ultraportable laptops. It has a CPU Mark of 11469 as of January 2021. The
performance of this processor is slightly better than Core i7-1165G7 with a
score of 10481. Other processors, like Ryzen 7 4700U have a score of 13811
while Core i7-10850H has a score of 12821. A higher score generally
indicates better performance.
GPU
The Lenovo Yoga 9i 82BG000CUS touch-screen laptop comes equipped with an
integrated GPU called Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7. The integrated GPU in this
processor has 96 EUs clocked at 0.4 GHz up to 1.34 GHz. The performance of
this GPU should be around a dedicated GeForce MX350 in 3DMark benchmarks.
This integrated GPU can be used only for the lowest graphical settings and
low resolutions in demanding games.
The Display
The Lenovo Yoga 9i 82BG000CUS touch-screen laptop features a 14" multitouch
screen with 1920 x 1080 native resolution. Touch, tap, glide and make the
most of Windows 10. It also features an energy-efficient LED backlight. With
the resolution, it is expected that this laptop will be able to give you
crisp and sharp details but not as stunning as laptops with 4k resolution.
The RAM
The Lenovo Yoga 9i 82BG000CUS touch-Screen Laptop has 16GB system memory for
intense multitasking and gaming, the considerable high-bandwidth RAM is
needed to easily run your games, photo and video-editing applications, as
well as to run multiple programs and browser tabs all at once. Specifically,
the laptop has LPDDR4X RAM to smoothly run your graphics-heavy PC games and
video-editing applications. The biggest change in this type of RAM is the
decrease in I/O voltage (VDDQ) by almost 50% (1.12 to 0.61 V) generating a
noticeable power drop on both the memory and system sides of the bus. These
reserves turned out to be required for applications even reflecting the
extra cost to produce a new voltage I/O power supply in the system. The
maximum data rate was enlarged from 3200 to 4266 Mbps by increasing
termination and calibration options. Newer system PHY’s were fabricated to
leverage these selections and deliver more deskewing on the system side.
Systems also commenced making more use of periodic correction functions
presented in LPDDR4. Regrettably, LPDDR4X is not backward compatible with
LPDDR4. LPDDR4X gadgets are not necessitated to be matching with or endure
higher LPDDR4 voltage on their I/O. Likewise, there is no stated way to
query an LPDDR4 or LPDDR4X device to ascertain its type during the power-up
sequence. This is not as bad as it seems since LPDDR memory devices are not
a user or even technician replaceable once mounted by the company.
The Storage
This Lenovo Yoga 9i 82BG000CUS Touch-Screen Laptop has a storage capacity of
512GB Solid State Drive that uses the speedy PCIe technology. The
flash-based SSD is not equipped with moving parts, resulting in faster
start-up times and data access, no noise, and decreased heat production and
power draw on the battery.
