This is unapologetically a desktop replacement meant to be plugged in at all times. This is a big dog that needs to eat.
If you can make peace with that, the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i is a glorious experience.
I have the Gen 9. I love it.
Memory is upgradeable?
Thanks.
How are the builds on these? Should I spend the extra on extended warranty?
Memory is upgradeable?
Thanks.
Strangely if you buy the SKU with 2TB of storage, it's actually two Gen 4 1TB drives, so both slots are occupied. If you buy the 1TB option (this deal), it is a single Gen 5 1TB drive.
The RAM is 6400mt/s DDR5, so good stuff. The 32GB SKU (again, this deal) has two 16GB SODIMMs, so it can be expanded.
I have this exact configuration picked up from Best Buy a couple of weeks ago when Open Boxes were going for around $2k. Check your local stores and see if they have one local. I got an Open Box- Good that was in like-new condition and still had most of its warranty left. Prices at the moment for the Open Boxes are still more than this deal, but they drop pretty regularly.

The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 (2025) supports up to 64GB or 96GB of DDR5 5600MHz/6400MHz SODIMM RAM across two slots. The upgrade requires removing 8-10 Phillips screws (some,, check this YouTube video for a visual walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTfIbn4
Key Specifications & Requirements
Capacity: Officially supports up to 64GB (2x32GB), with user reports suggesting 96GB (2x48GB) is possible.
Type: DDR5 SO-DIMM (262-pin).
Speed: 5600MHz or 6400MHz.
Slots: 2x DDR5 SO-DIMM slots (both usually filled).
Upgrade Steps
Preparation: Power down the, watch this video for the disassembly process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYQo2QP
Open Bottom Panel: Use a PH1 screwdriver to remove the 8-10 screws on the base. Note that some,, you can see the screw removal process in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUoBFdV
Disconnect Battery: Unplug the battery cable for safety.
Install RAM: Remove the existing modules by pulling the clips away. Insert the new modules at a 45-degree angle and press down until they click.
Reassemble: Reconnect the battery, replace the panel, and screw it back in.
Important Notes
First Boot: The system may take up to 30-60 seconds to recognize the new RAM.
Recommended Kits: 32GB (2x16GB) or 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 5600MHz SODIMM.

Some people state that the RAM needs to be a "special kind" for the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10 due to potential compatibility issues, specific timing requirements (JEDEC vs. XMP profiles), and performance variations related to RAM capacity and rank. It's not about a unique type of RAM, but rather finding modules that work optimally with the laptop's specific memory controller and motherboard.
Key Factors for Specific RAM Selection
JEDEC Compatibility: Unlike many desktop motherboards that support Intel XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) to achieve advertised high speeds, most laptops, including the Legion series, primarily rely on standard JEDEC (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council) memory profiles. This means that RAM rated for speeds beyond the standard JEDEC profile (like 6000MHz or 6400MHz XMP kits) might default to a lower JEDEC speed if the XMP profile cannot be enabled in the BIOS.
Capacity and Speed Limitations: When upgrading to higher capacities like 64GB (2x32GB) or 96GB (2x48GB), the system's memory controller might be limited by the physical memory layout (dual-rank configuration). This can cause the RAM to run at a lower frequency than its maximum potential speed or the speed of the original lower-capacity (single-rank) factory RAM. For example, a 64GB kit rated for 5600MHz might actually run at 5200MHz in the laptop.
Timing Specificity: Some users have reported issues with specific brands or kits, experiencing system instability, blue screens, or failure to boot. This points to the laptop's motherboard and BIOS being particular about the memory timings (latency) of the installed modules. Using a full, matched kit from a reputable manufacturer (like Crucial, Kingston) that explicitly guarantees compatibility with the specific Lenovo model is the safest bet.
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) RAM: The factory-installed RAM is specifically chosen by Lenovo to ensure perfect compatibility and performance out of the box. Third-party RAM, while technically meeting the DDR5 SO-DIMM standard, may have slightly different sub-timings or configurations that the system's BIOS doesn't handle as gracefully, leading to performance variations or instability.
In essence, while standard DDR5 SO-DIMM RAM is physically compatible, the term "special kind" highlights the need for specific modules that are known to work without performance trade-offs or compatibility headaches in the Legion Pro 7i Gen 10.
