Also, this comes with the 230W (not 170W) adapter as stated in the official spec sheet: https://psref.lenovo.co
There isn't a significant jump from 4060 to 4070 and all the games you'd play on the latter can be played on the former at 1080p. The display is what you'd be looking at the most and a good display while playing games goes a long way (unless you plan to plug in an external monitor) which this LOQ has with a 100% sRGB. This is also 15.6" so more compact and lighter than the 16" Victus. As a portable gaming laptop, this is better overall.

Back to the Victus: the default memory configuration is 8×2 DDR5, which I replaced with Crucial 24×2 (48GB) DDR5 5600. While both the Lenovo LOQ and HP Victus are made of plastic, a side-by-side comparison with the Lenovo Slim 7i (Intel i9, 4070, 40GB—16GB soldered / 24GB Crucial added) shows that heat dissipation is surprisingly better in the plastic laptops. In terms of performance, Cyberpunk at 4K Ultra runs at 34-44 FPS on both machines.
I made a similar observation when comparing the Alienware m15 R7 3070 to the Dell G16 3070 some time ago. The aluminum case of the Alienware causes it to overheat faster than the cheaper plastic case of the G16. By comparison, the Dell XPS 4050—all metal—was especially terrible. An aluminum toaster not designed for gaming.
I'm still thinking whether I should return the Victus 4070 to Best Buy and wait for the 5070 lineup of laptops. The issue is the Trump-era China tariffs: NVIDIA is rushing to release the 5090 and 5080 models in the U.S. market, but 5070 laptops won't arrive until February. As a result, they're likely to be subject to the tariffs, with potential price increases of up to 45%. ++ Even if you're lucky enough to find a 5070 laptop later this year for around $1000, its DDR7 VRAM would still likely be limited to 8GB.
I got the 4070 victus last week. Upgraded the SSD to 4tb ($198) and the RAM to 32GB ($60) right out of the box. Set it up and played some half life Alyx on ultra settings using my Quest 3 VR. Performance was amazing. Laptop is fast and I'm loving it so far. Much better than my Asus TUF from 2028.
When it comes to longevity, the better GPU probably will let you game longer before needing an upgrade.
On second thought, maybe it's worth waiting for the global cheapening of SSDs, some good luck, and Jensen Huang's manna of the RTX 5070 mobile after all.
