I recently bought the Lenovo as a budget replacement for a laptop that crapped out on me a few weeks ago. I'm not a heavy gamer, nor a graphic designer, and I didn't expect much from the device, but after watching several benchmark videos and reviews on YT I was hoping I could at least enjoy some Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2, or Battlefield V on low settings once in a while. Unfortunately, none of these games are playable, as I can barely reach 20 FPS at the lowest possible settings.

Is there anything I can do to improve my gaming experience, or is this just how poor this device is?

For reference, I can play Outriders on low/medium settings at around 30 FPS, Hades and Batman: Arkham City work fine.

These are my specs: AMD Ryzen 5 5500H, GeForce RTX 2050 4GB GDDR6, 1x 16GB SO-DIMM DDR4-3200

Additionally, I added an 8GB RAM stick hoping for the dual channel to help, but it didn't seem to do anything. If anything, I think it's worse now?

I have the latest GPU/CPU drivers installed, however I removed both the NVIDIA and AMD Adrenalin app, as they didn't seem to do anything, plus I read somewhere that removing them might actually improve gaming experience. I also set all the NVIDIA settings to default.

I always game with the power cable plugged.
