If you’re looking to pick up an affordable yet powerful gaming laptop, you’re in luck. Walmart’s selling the Lenovo Legion 5 for just $869.99, which is a savings of $130. This machine is pretty powerful for the price, as it’s packing an AMD Ryzen 7 7735H CPU and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU. It also has loads of connectivity options as well as a spacious screen. According to the reviews on Walmart, this machine disperses heat well and the storage and RAM are easy to upgrade.
In addition to the AMD CPU and the Nvidia GPU, the Lenovo Legion 5 is also rocking a generous 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. In other words, this laptop should fly through most games on the High or Ultra graphics settings. That said, for more competitive titles, you may want to scale the graphics back a bit. The 15.6-inch display has a resolution of 2160×1350 and a refresh rate of 165Hz, so visuals should be smooth and crisp. For ports, you’re getting one Ethernet, one HDMI 2.1, one headphone/microphone jack, one power connector, three USB 3.2 Gen 1, and two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2.
This is a really fantastic deal, so don’t miss out.
