Lenovo Legion Pro 5 A Ryzen And RTX Powered Gaming Laptop
You Could Use It For Work Too, If You Wanted
Lenovo isn’t generally a go to company for gaming laptops, though they are certainly not new to it. The Lenovo Legion Pro 5 model which TweakTown recently reviewed does pack a fair punch for it’s $1480 price tag though. The Ryzen 7 7745HX can boost it’s eight cores up to 5.1GHz, the RTX 4070 will let you game on the 16″ 2560x1600p IPS display at 165Hz in many cases and a 1TB NVMe drive will store a fair amount of games. It ships with 16GB of 5200MHz DDR5, which you can upgrade if you so wish as the SO-DIMMs are not soldered on.
Connectivity includes three USB 3.2 Gen 1 and two Gen 2, HDMI 2.1, and Ethernet with WiFI6e for those that prefer wireless. It can’t beat a laptop with a Core i9 and RTX 4090 but it provides quite a lot of performance for the price. If you like the idea of gaming on the classic ThinkPad keyboard, but with added RGB, then check out the Lenovo Legion Pro 5.
The Legion 5 Pro is an entry-level gaming laptop from Lenovo that wins big in value. Here's our look at the model with the Ryzen 7 7745HX and RTX 4070.
