Legion Go 2 Running Slow? Check Your VRAM Settings First
Lenovo Legion Go 2 ships with only 2GB VRAM. Boost it to 8GB for smoother gameplay and higher FPS. Here's how to fix it.
It turns out that the Lenovo Legion Go 2 is shipping with its VRAM set to just 2GB by default, which has been causing noticeable performance issues and stuttering in many games.
By increasing the VRAM allocation to 8GB, users have reported significant improvements in smoothness and frame rates. Some titles even refuse to launch entirely when the VRAM remains at the 2GB default, making this adjustment essential for optimal gameplay.
Fortunately, you can change this setting easily—either through the BIOS or directly within Windows using the AMD Adrenalin Software.
To adjust the VRAM in Windows:
1. Open AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition
2. Navigate to Performance → Tuning
3. Locate and increase the VRAM allocation to 8GB
This quick tweak can make a major difference in the Legion Go 2’s gaming performance and stability.
