    the top end for gaming for last years would be the like of a lenovo legion 7i going on ratings ive seen, there still over 3000

    for what you need

    there is no need to pay that much really - there will be new models of most of the laptops coming out in the next few months , which will be better spec and more powerful with 40series laptop gpus in them

    are you considering a Pc set up as if your streaming on twitch and gaming a Pc set up would be more suited to it and more powerful than a laptop for your money

    you can get pre builds on there a specialised pc builders that do it also

    was looking at a legion i7

    anyone had any experience with one?



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 6,191 Mod ✭✭✭✭Nowso


    i have the legion 5i pro from 2022 its a bit bigger and less rgb than the 7i

    the 2022 version of the 7i gets very high ratings and is a good laptop - i dont think you need to go that high really

    there changing the legions a bit in 2023 here is a preview of the 2023 versions due out soon


    the 7 pro will be a step up on the 5 next year when this year they were more simular setups
