Although this deal has Thunderbolt and about a 10% better processor, IMO, I would rather have the screen and the extra 1.5TB SSD of the other FP deal on the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro Laptop: RTX 3070, Ryzen 7 5800H, 16" 1600p 165HZ, 16GB RAM, 2TB SSD $1,664 + 11%...

I'm also not certain the Intel is a "Pro" like the AMD deal. I didn't see Pro on the Lenovo page.

Seems like a good deal.

I got the MSI GF65 at best buy for $850. Is this worth the upgrade?

Getting a gaming pc in this price range between now and black friday. Hard to know what is a good deal and when to pull the trigger. Definitely favor legion options

Don't like the 1080p screen. Would have preferred a 2K screen at least. But everything else looks decent.

The code LEGIONDEALS20 works on all the Legion laptops. I got Legion 7i with 3070 for $1604 + tax with id.me 5% too. Also use 11% cashback

GP66 or this? Only thing I'm concerned with is the hard drive.

Hard drive is the last thing to be concerned with, as you can replace or use an external hard drive.

I feel GP66 is better in performance but this Lenovo comes with a better screen, thermals and aesthetics. BTW where did you find GP66? Is OOS at Costco.

Already have the GP66, going out as a gift, wondering if I needed to reconsider for this.

- friend of mine was very high on the gp66, just wanted to see if there was any reason I should go with the Lenovo instead.

As an FYI this code works with their higher end models too. I just applied it to a legion 7 on top of a veteran discount with ID.me - saving $800.

Oh man, I don't need it... but... it's so much cheaper than I thought it would be....

Believe it or not, that is what I like about it. I am upgrading an older 15.6 Eurocom job, elite at the time, with a GTX980M 8GB and so on, but with a gorgeous Sharp 4k display, the only of its kind with 100% sRGB then.

The problem is that 4K is jut dreadful for a laptop. The resolution is much too high to be usable, so everything is upscaled, and it has a distinct performance hit in such a mode. To speed it up, I would set it to 1080p, but then it simply loses sharpness since while downscaling a native 4k image to a 1080p screen might even be sharper, an upscaled is always worse. Finally, if you are gaming, it will fly, and fly for a much longer time if you get my drift. The issue with QHD and 4k is that sure, you can fit a lot more onto the screen, but that screen is still only 15-16 inches. More fits, because it was shrunk.

This is purely my 2 cents, but is the feedback of someone who had a 4k laptop. I wasn't crazy about the keyboard either, but that is another story.
