Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 16 inch from Costco

583 114 November 19, 2022 at 06:42 PM Get Costco Wholesale coupons Coupons
Hello all, is this any good for the price?
https://www.costco.com/lenovo-leg...76642.html

Also can I add another hard drive on this?

If this is not good can you suggest anything close to the same price that can handle todays games? Does not have to be top of the line but want it to be able to play the games out there with much lag and that will be good for a few years.

Thanks for any advice.

NOT a good price. This one is way better for $1099:

Also, you can add a 2TB hard drive for $109 (suitable for gamers)

forget that deal. that link was pulled.

This is the best deal so far for $1099. It has last year's Intel processor but a RTX 3070
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lenovo...484883807?

This one is $1599 but NOT on sale NOW. It has this year's Intel processor and a RTX 3070. Perhaps it will be a Cyber Monday sale? Last year, Walmart's Cyber Monday sale started at 7pm on Sunday. No guarantees this will be on sale but someone suggested that it's a possibility.

Do you think its worth the risk to see if this one goes on sale? Is it that much better in your mind? If so how much more would you spend to get this one over the orginal one you suggested?

Thanks for all the help. Just want to make sure I get my son a decent gaming laptop with out breaking the bank.

Walmart allows returns so buy the first one and hope for the second. I assume the 2nd may come in at $1099 as well or $1250 or 1299.

A. I have one from an even earlier deal (RTX 3060) also at $1099.
B. Then Walmart released a better one (RTX 3070) also at the same price ($1099).
C. Now, I'm hoping that the 3070 with newer Intel processor will come it at $1099!

I didn't get B. but will have to return A if C. comes through!!!

So I got the one you suggested, and sorry to keep bugging you,
Do you suggest adding more RAM or should this be good enough for now? That SSD is sold out for now but I am assuming I can find other options.

1. I'm confused. Which one did you get? Specs (graphics card, ram, processor and SSD?
2. If you only need a cheap 2TB drive as a secondary drive, isn't the 2TB Sodigm still available on backorder? It should start shipping soon. Some have reported that their credit cards are just being charged.

I am always happy to help so don't hesitate to ask questions.

I hope you didn't get the one below at $1,599. It might go on sale on Cyber Monday sales which could start as early as today at 7pm at $1,099. I recommend that only at that price and not at $1,599.

I want inexpensive if I can but do not want something that is sub par or could go bad. Would you buy that one or is there one a little more expensive but better that you would recommend instead? It's not a good price if it breaks down or is subpar know what I mean.

Firstly, why do you need the laptop? Is it primarily for gaming? If so, how much do you game, little, average, or you play the best games most of the time?

The Lenovo Legion Pro are well made gaming laptops

Sorry that last questions is if there was a better SSD I think the Lenovo will fit mine and my sons needs. He does the easier games like Mindcraft and Roblox and what not, though he is 15 so I am hoping he does some more serious games soon. Right now I mostly game on my Xbox One X but want to be able to play on the computer if I get back into any of those games. I want this to last at least till my son goes off to college so hopefully 4 or 5 years at a minimum. So want the SSD to be a reliable one.

Thanks again.
