This is exactly what I said to my friend when I sent him this video.. "a typical gaming laptop with these specs would cost twice as much as this". And here I am, my point proven by your suffering 🙂
I literally bought a ideapad gaming 3i i5-11320h with gtx 1650 for 1k usd when i convert it, import taxes are crazy, bought it from a big retail store.
also for those who are interested in this laptop, this is the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ACH6 (AMD CPU) or 15IHU6 (Intel CPU and has slightly different GPUs). It can have a Ryzen 5 or a Ryzen 7, or an i5/i7 and gpu's ranging from the GTX1650/3050/3050ti/3060.
Lenovo Legion series is good too. AMD RYZEN 4800H, NVIDIA 1660ti, 256gb & 1Tb drives, 1080p 144hz screen....it's pretty dang amazing for the $899 I paid.
@@309electronics5I have a 1660 ti in my desktop, its not bad at all for budget, I got it the same week it came out, I like it But I will be upgrading in a year or so just to futureproof a bit
I already have one of these with 3060 and 16 gigs of ram but the biggest problem is not ram; the real problem is its SSD. When you copy a big file or install a AAA game, after some gigabytes of data it slows down so bad. I added a Samsung 512g SSD for it and now it flies.
Just bought one from my local best buy for $581. Picking it up tomorrow, usually I research anything PC related before it buy it, usually for my Desktop at home, but I needed a Laptop that could play games. I was at first looking at used ones on Marketplace (I know, I know.) but then I decided just to give Best Buy a shot, not confident that I'd find anything anywhere close to within Budget, then I found this! The 8gb for sure will have to be Upgraded (Tarkov is at minimum 16gb, 32 recommended) but many of my other Games are CPU and GPU intensive, not so much Memory. Really glad to hear this was actually a good purchase decision instead of dropping $1,100 on another one, or buying a used one on FB Marketplace with worse Specs and a High Price Tag.
I have this laptop, but with a ryzen 7 5800h and a 3050ti and can confirm that this is a really good laptop. also with this configuration it has a 300nit 100%srgb 165hz screen. and it was 340 000Ft (~$952) brand new and now sells for 300 000Ft (~$840) in Hungary. also would mention that i got it with 8gigs of ram and free dos. tho it can heat up pretty well and the 135W charger is sometimes not enough for gaming on fast charge. tho that may be because it's 2 years old now. and my other only problem is the plastic with it. it's kinda cheap, so it will bend a bit on hard pressure. also had some issues with it, but that's because i was dumb and had to send it to repair, so that was all my fault. over all it's a good laptop and runs many things pretty well and can even play vr on it. tho I would look for one with a 3060 one if you want the 6th gen like on this vid, and sadly the 7th gen has the 3050ti as the highest options for a gpu.
I have that same laptop and it is very good for gaming but I also want some more RAM from 8 to 16 but overall it is a great gaming laptop would recommend buying
I bought one with amd 7 4800h + rtx1650 with 16gb rams. What i neglected to check was i bought it with a 1tb sata. Slow the computer performance like hell. After 3 years, sata going bad with almost 100% performance all-the-time. Looks like i really need an SSd. Anywho, gta5 with 120fps was piece of cake.
That’ll be an upgrade from my current Lenovo gaming laptop, I’ll probably still wait a year or two before upgrading though, I only bought my current system 3 years ago
I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 Intel Core i5 12450h 8gb ram 512gb ssd rtx 3050 4gb and after one year i can tell you it is a really good laptop, on budget and the tech specs are incredible, i play msfs 2020 with 50fps (high settings), forza horizon 5 with 70fps (high settings), fifa 23 with 65fps (high settings), valorant with 250fps (very high settings), cyberpunk with 55fps (high settings) it's a incredible laptop😮
I own one but sure thing you wanna upgrade is the storage you can use a 2.5 HDD or upgrade the sdd if you want to keep it cool.Put books to the side or anything that can keep it elevated from the surface so it can take cooler air in
That a 6 core CPU for sure the only 12 core Intel i5 is not even 12 core but 14 and don't exist on laptop yet so it should be a 6 core and 12 thread (thread are not core)
How's the temps on Helios 300? I have the same cpu gpu combo with my MSI P65, bought back in 2019 and 9750H's temp is so terrible that I would need to apply a liquid metal for it to not reach the 90s at full load (not synthetic benchmark).
Hp pavilion gaming laptop 16 16gb ram I5-10300h cpu Nvidia GeForce gtx 1650 gpu 500gb+1tb ssd Win 11 pro Was just over $1200 in 2022 its a beast i barely drop under 100 fps even on big AAA games
I have an Asus TUF F15 2022 in use, bought almost the lowest specs: i7 12th gen, 16 gigs of ddr5 and a 3060 ti 6gb, due to my work I had to upgrade the ram to 32gb and you might laugh, but this laptop was one of the best decisions I have made in my pathetic life.😅😂
dude forgot to mention that its only got 256gigs of storage and windows takes up almost half of it... ram isn't the only upgrade that laptop needs, i got the exact same one
There is multiple versions of the laptop Mine came with Ryzen 7 5800h 16gb of ram Rtx 3050 1tb hdd 256 ssd 120 fps screen And windows 10 That keeps asking me to upgrade yo windows 11
I got a razer blade 15 advanced late 2019 rtx 2070,32 GB, and 1TB for the same price. I was running hot but I repaired with coolermaster cryofuze violet and its is running cinebench Multicore at 67°C and rtx 2070 at 90w at 86°C(I bend the gpu side vapour chamber a little when I was taking apart. It didn't even have a single paint chip and came with box and everything.
This laptop I got for $686 on Amazon for: Ryzen 5 6600H (instead of 5000 series) RTX 3050 (no Ti) 8gb RAM 256gb storage. Easily upgradable to 16gb ram and much more storage. It runs games quite well for what it is. 3DMark score is 5200 with the cpu getting a 7100 score. Cinebench gave the CPU a 10,100 score which was 1000 points higher than the desktop Ryzen 7 1700X CPU. Edit: the ram is also DDR5 instead of DDR4. With the speeds on my 15ARH7 model being 4800MHz. It really is a KILLER budget laptop
No? VERY low end panels do, and even then overdrive is designed to stop ghosting and mose laptop displays have a default and non changeable overdrive setting that is pretty damn strong
I should've waited an year before buying a laptop, I bought the same specs for $1100 😭
Not as bad as me buying a 3080ti for 1200€ months before the 4090 dropped. But whatever. Even the 3080ti is an overkill imo
No way you spent over 1k on a 1050ti RIP

These kind of laptop satisfies both gaming as well as students needs
I just bought one, so pumped
Thinking of buying one, how was your experience?
i hope there's 165 hz

tho it can heat up pretty well and the 135W charger is sometimes not enough for gaming on fast charge. tho that may be because it's 2 years old now. and my other only problem is the plastic with it. it's kinda cheap, so it will bend a bit on hard pressure. also had some issues with it, but that's because i was dumb and had to send it to repair, so that was all my fault.
over all it's a good laptop and runs many things pretty well and can even play vr on it. tho I would look for one with a 3060 one if you want the 6th gen like on this vid, and sadly the 7th gen has the 3050ti as the highest options for a gpu.
It's a good thing I got this form last Christmas
Where I live it's sold for approx. 833$ currently, same case for most laptops
I bought the RTX 3050 version not too long ago, I'm very thankful. Can run most modern games, although I mostly emulate PS2 games.
What about battery life and thermals?
I mostly keep the charger plugged in, so I have no idea about the battery.
I got the Acer Nitro 5 for a similar price and similar specs. 11th gen 6 core i5, RTX 3050 and 8GB RAM. Highly recommend
I have the gtx version and i added some ram its not vr teady, cs2 is pretty demanding battlefield too it grts pretty hot
I own one, with the intel i5 11th gen and rtx3050 with 8gb of RAM. Absolute unit of a beast.
i have the same laptop, i also upgraded the ram and it’s great!
Yes, my bota brothers have one of these, built like a tank
