Not being a touchscreen is actually a good thing for a lot of folks.

11th gen Intel in the lenovo is only 4-core cpu - obsolete.
This year's 12th gen Intel have 10-14 cores, 12 in the $899 hp linked.

So, if you're not doing much with your computer - web, office, watch videos - lenovo is fine.

But if you're running it hard, multitasking a lot, etc, the Lenovo is instantly obsolete for the future and you'd be far better off looking for and buying a 12th gen Alder Lake Intel cpu.

Personally, dumping everything old this year to upgrade to Alder Lakes because it's simply So Damn Fast, even M1 macbooks can't run faster than an Alder Lake.

I want to use this together with Razer core X with 3070 for 4K. Good enough or should I aim to 12th generation?

Oh no, I just bought this MSI laptop yesterday. I wish I saw the Lenovo deal first.

See https://egpu.io to get an idea how 11th gen cpu laptops perform....

Most games are not cpu limited, but rather gpu limited, so as long as you can hook up a 3070 and the thermals of the laptop don't suck, picky to be ok.
Maybe a laptop gaming base fan.

See if Notebookcheck.net has a review on this or similar for thermals.

LMAO

It's a huge stretch to call this obsolete. 4 core / 8 threads and it will run anything you throw at it, including tons of multitasking. Just as fast as a professional laptop workstation from a few years ago that still runs fine. Regardless, this is a 3lb ultrabook, nobody is 'running it hard' with cpu intensive tasks.

This CPU is far from obsolete, the response above is ridiculous.

You should aim for 12th gen. MSI Prestige 14 with core i5-1240p 12C/16T cpu, 16gb lpddr4x ram and 512GB is available at $799 in Newegg and that's a far superior machine, especially if you want to add external GPU as powerful as RTX 3070. All modern games are capable of using more than 4 cores and that 4C/8T low powered cpu in this will be a significant bottleneck for any powerful GPU.

Anyone saying the i7-1165g7 is slow, obsolete, low powered or a bottleneck, please stop spreading uninformed misinformation.

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu....40+2.80GHz

Real world the i7-1165g7 is plenty strong and has excellent single core performance. It's plenty of PC to do anything reasonable. It should game at 4K or 1440P with a 3070 just fine in most cases.
