I just picked one up from microcenter a couple days ago, came with the I7 13700HX, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD, with a 4070. 240hz display for 1400.

I was about to get this same model from Micro Center then I found a model with the exact same specs but with an i9 for about $80 from B&H Photo so I had to order that! I love it!

@@ASIF-rk1sm yeah it's a gaming laptop, not gonna last very long at all.. You will be basically plugged in to the wall 90 percent of the time unless you run it in potato mode to get some more time out of it.

how about looking at the newly released Speedometer 3.0 benchmark?

@Pooter-it4yg Ай бұрын

Plugged in, with the screen set to 1440, hard capped at 60fps and DLSS going, this can give a really nice game performance on Quiet power mode, with fans effectively unnoticeable. Mine has a 14900, which I don't think makes much difference in this scenario. (Yes, I'm wasting performance here, but I always try a "quietest best" for laptops as a personal subjective benchmark. I actually wind up using this setting most of the time unless performance is really lacking...)

I just bought an AMD Ryzen 5 7645HX version of that with a 4050 for $811.00. I don't game, just needed something decent with a nice screen to take to Philippines when I retire soon. Laptops cost a LOT down there.

I just got mine, i7 13700hx 16gb ram 4070 8gb with IPS 240hz display @ Best buy on sale from 1799 to 1349$$ it was a steal .. I upgraded from a Lenovo ThinkPad t530 btw that's still a beast... Military grade chassis.

Ubuntu and Windows gaming, very tempting. Hopefully someone has figured out the fan speed while under Linux.

I know all the kids don't consider cool to like the RTX 4060, but based on all I have seen online, it is cool. It is cool. Speaking of cool, did I mention something about the temperatures? Did you do any testing for CPU and GPU temps? In general I like Lenovo laptops. My PC is a 2014 Lenovo laptop and still works. (thankfully) Thanks for the video.

Yes temps covered in the video in the stress test section

Lenovo's wave of mega silent firings in early 2023 were absolutely despicable. They laid off thousands of really great people after posting record profits and bragging about moving up the Forbes list each quarter in their "All Hands" NA org sales meetings to those people that moved the needle for them. They ruined thousands of people's lives who relocated and rented or purchased new homes just to join the US sales organization during the digital boom of the pandemic and increase in business for them, forcing them to lose their homes and become homeless. Their warranty process is atrocious and considered terrible by anyone who has had to deal with service claims on top of this.
