Looking for a New Laptop
If you want fan control other and other stuff on Linux, you can use my tool https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux . I think the embedded controller (firmware) has changed from the 2022 models (=Gen 7) to the 2023 models (=Gen 8).

Need an advice, which Linux is best for laptop?
You do not need Windows and Vantage anymore. I developed a Vantage alternative for Linux to change for fan speeds, power mode, power limits etc. https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux. It comes with a GUI tool and a driver for the laptop.

Is this CPU temp normal when idle? (Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 5800H 3070)

Legion fan control doesn't seem to work. Anyone could help me?
If you have concerns that anything might influence your fan control in Windows, get a clean system by booting to Linux from a USB live system (https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/try-ubuntu-before-you-install#1-getting-started ) - no installation required. Then add my Linux tool for fan control, power mode etc. https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux and try to change the fan curve. If this works, you definitely know that it works and there is some problem with either your background tasks or that your model is not (properly) supported by LegionFanControl.

A few questions prior to a switch
Cooling is controlled by the embedded controller in the hardware. So it just works. In Windows you have tools like LegionToolkit or LegionFanControl, to change settings of it, i.e. setting the fan curves or changing power mode. I Linux you could use my tool Lenovo Legion Linux support (https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux ) to do the same.

Lenovo Legion Toolkit question
There's a linux alternative you can try out. https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux

Laptop for software development, computer vision, and photo editing
You can also check if the BIOS version (only the leading letters are important) is already in the list of compatible models of my tool and kernel driver for fan control, temperatures, power mode etc.: https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux
