Lenovo are really good build quality. I was surprised when i opened my legion 5 pro, didn’t expect build quality to be that good.
Legion is known for its high quality, I believe an Ideapad is a bit lower in that sector.
Yes the it's night at day between the build quality of the Legion and the entry level Ideapad. Note the IdeaPad Pros are a very different in terms of build quality also to the regular one.
@shellshocked: I appreciate the response!
Aye. I don't have an ideapad, but would also place it at a lower tier.
@tebbybabes: I dont have an "Idea"
padbut would also place it at a lower tier.
I'm tossing up between this post and Asus TUF Gaming A15
If you want a laptop with decent battery life for productivity in addition to gaming, the Tuf is a better option. The Ryzen CPU on the Tuf is also much better, in terms of multicore performance, than the i5 in this laptop.
TUF is worth the extra $50 imo
Also with JB Giftcards you may not even be paying $50 more
pretty sure that is the model with the heat issues, it's worth researching before going with the TUF.
That TUF is sold out
I grabbed the Asus when I saw it the other day. Seems decent build quality and that 4800u will run rings around the i5. Just need to find a good case for it now
still showing as 1099 goodgys and goodguys ebay -can you clicjk and collect if u buy on ebay goodguys?
Did u add the coupun?
Does it have display port for an external monitor to take advantage of a larger 144hz monitor?
I believe only HDMI, reading from the specs.
There's never a perfect gaming laptop for 1k
Easier to find than a fast CPU with 32gb ram tho!
How heavy is this one? Can't open the description section
2.25 KG
Thanks
👍
Does this support 2 display?
well my thinkpad 3 yrs old -new USBC Powr connectore early this year ,and a few weeks ago a new keyboard- total cost $600 shite - should bought a new laptop doing now, going asus - but its hard to find a laptop thesedays with 512 GB SSD and a 1TB HDD or at least a HDD/sata connector - and lets face it Lenovo are NOT transparent about actual specifications
I think you need to check and replace your keyboard again:)
Reckon this would be good for the mrs who uses autocad/archicad?
It would work, but for that kind of work I would be aiming for an 8 core CPU and a 2K screen. Something like the Legion 5 Pro 16 inch.
Agreed, 2k screen is a must
is it possible to add another m2 ssd to this?
"Idepad Gaming 3i performs so much worse than the Ideapad 5 Pro, considering they have the same GPU but the former has a TGP of 90W and the latter only 55W. In the gaming tests, the Ideapad 5 Pro is easily 20%-30% faster."
Came across the above comment regarding this laptop.
Apparenttly its due to the memory module installed, being 1Rx16 and not 1Rx8.They did an analysis of the i5-11300H in this laptop and the 2 types of memory modules here:
https://laptopmedia.com/highlights/the-bottleneck-effect-up-…The video that Grey13 linked above shows that 3i has a 1Rx8 installed. Video is American, so we may get the 1Rx16.
In that case just upgrade the RAM & it will be faster than the comment you mention above, being that the 3i has the 90W GPU.Exactly
Hi is this better than
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/739252Does this laptop support 3 monitors (so 4 in total including laptop screen)? Are there any laptop that does this lol
What CPU is it? I can only find "i5 11th gen"
Intel Core i5-11300H processor (3.1 - 4.4Ghz)
I looked up the model just now and found it. Thanks for the help :)
*i5-11320H
Finally a laptop with a 3050 below $1000, great find Wolf!
This probably has a better build quality than an ASUS TUF laptop correct?
