AMD Ryzen 7 5800H 3.2GHz Processor
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 6GB GDDR6
16GB DDR4-3200 RAM

Experience the top AAA games on the Lenovo Legion 5. Inside the clean, minimalist chassis of the Legion 5, available in Phantom Blue, is everything you ever need to compete on equal footing with the pros, including the latest generation AMD Ryzen processor and NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics for performance that is AI-optimized by the Legion AI Engine powering the revolutionary Legion Coldfront 3.0 and Q Control. Excel across every AAA title with a 17 inch FHD display at up to 144 Hz refresh rate, featuring 72 percent NTSC color accuracy and support for Dolby Vision, and the legendary Legion Truestrike keyboard so you can strike with pinpoint precision.


The Micro Center website is missing some specs, but it appears identical to this model with the memory (RAM and SSD) upgraded for the Micro Center version: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/lapt...8GMY501586
In reading the Q&A, you should know that the keyboard is only white light and not RGB

Ok deal if you have a microcenter near by as you don't have to wait for the crazy shipping time. Still doesn't match up to the Walmart deal for $100 more or the previous Lenovo website deal (though many got cancellations). The pro 5 has a better and brighter screen as well. 3060 to 3070 is also a big jump.

The YMMV unicorn that led a lot of sour people looking for but never got, I almost gave up also but finally got one. Whenever someone mentions it the people who missed out get super sour and hate on you. Lol

Pro also has different cooling and is thicker maybe to accommodate the cooling. Haven't heard if it runs cooler.

One of the reasons I went for this is the screen size. If you're going to try to game on it, there's a big spread between a 15.6" screen and a 17.3" screen - it's about 25% more screen size but the same resolution, refresh rate and quality display. Most of the Legion deals are for the 15.6" model. I know the Pro is in-between, but that's also more expensive and generally unavailable to buy.

I think many people use a docking station when at home, that's what I plan to do. Docking station plus a 24" or 27" monitor.

Yeah, Microcenter has the 15.6" version for the same price but don't think that's a good deal.

Because it was a YMMV unicorn. Talking about it is bragging and douchie.

Quote from Redflyer :
This is normal price for a 3060. Also last black Friday 2060s dropped to 899 so this is not really any kind of deal.
Why do you always compare to black Friday? Do you have a time machine?
