The Pro 5 supposedly ships in 10-12 business days as opposed to 3+ months for the normal Legion 5 17" model. I took a shot at this; after-tax total of $1,647.50 for the Pro 5 with:

● AMD® Ryzen™ 7 5800H Processor (3.20 GHz, up to 4.40 GHz Max Boost, 8 Cores, 16 Threads, 16 MB Cache)
● Windows 10 Pro 64 English
● 32 GB DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 16 GB)
● 1 TB PCIe SSD
● 1 TB PCIe SSD
● 16.0" WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS, anti-glare with Dolby Vision™, HDR 400, 500 nits, 165Hz
● NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX™ 3070 8GB
● 720p HD
● Array Microphone
● Storm Grey
● Backlit 4 Zone RGB - US English
● Wi-Fi 802.11AX (2 x 2) & Bluetooth® 5.1
● Anodizing
● PC/ABS
● 4 Cell Li-Polymer 80Wh
● 300W AC
● Publication-English
● 1 Year Depot or Carry-in

Fingers crossed to get this laptop at $950 off the retail price!

Still no windows 11 update though windows update. It will eventually be avaliable there.

I am very happy with the 17 inch laptop. I have had zero problems with my unit. Temps are good. Games run smooth. Battery lasts a long time. Build quality is solid feeling.

I got the 3070 RTX but I thought it was supposed to be 130w? It appears to be running at 115w according to Ethermine and MSI Afterburner. Any ideas why this could be? I really thought this was a 130w card?

You need to use the Performance Mode for full 130W. You can toggle the modes with Fn+Q.

Are y'all testing out the power/wattage of the 17" L5? That one should output 140W, not 130W, as per the post below:
Quote from d0nasaur View quoted comment :
Also, it looks like the TDP of the 3070 in the 2021 17 inch Legion 5 is 140W instead of the 130W erroneously reported on the Lenovo website, as shown in this Legion comparison video: https://youtu.be/7TgrL7gHc48?t=4470

140W is the max GPU power of any laptop 3070, so that's good.

Some other YT videos of interest I found helpful for reviewing the not really well covered yet 2021 17 inch Legion 5 (17ACH6H) with 3070 include:

At less than 1150 this laptop has been great. Getting 64 MH/s and to think this laptop costs less than a non lhr 3070 used....and gets the same hash rate. Should have bought more of them.

Mine is the 16" L5Pro... guess it's also 140W. Score.

It does come with 1 SSD, but there is a 2nd M. 2 slot for a 2nd SSD.
Thanks, There was not an option to order the second SSD, correct?

64mh? How did you get it so high? Mine is way below that and I'm running now at 130w.

overclock your memory and underclock your core.

Every GPU is different. Use MSI afterburner and start with overclocking the mem by +1000 and lowering your core clock to as low as it will go. Make sure you are on performance mode.

I was able to get it down to 108 watts at 63mh/s locking the mem at +1100 and the core at 1100 in trex miner.

Got mine up to 62MH. Mining hard on free power 24/7. Humanity is doomed by this stupid shit burning power for nothing, but may as well take advantage like everyone else.

Between this and my gaming rig at home, pulling in close to $10 a day.
