About this deal

Nahimic drastically improves your gaming experience with its immersive 3D audio and engaging features for gamers. Experience crystal-clear communication with teammates. Nahimic is a new way of playing and Legion Gamers can exclusively enjoy Easy Surround, an innovative audio solution that turns any Bluetooth speaker into a surround sound system. The display offers other benefits beside a bit less scrolling. Its image is crisp, bright, and fast with 2,560-by-1,600-pixel resolution, a brightness rating of 500 nits, and a 165Hz refresh rate. Colors in games and photos look vivid, and Nvidia's G-Sync technology matches the screen's refresh rate with GPU output for gameplay without tearing or stuttering. Enhancing your gameplay even further, the Lenovo Legion 5 Intel Core i7 Gaming Laptop (82RB000XUK) and its one-piece touchpad. This allows gaming focused Nahimic Audio to come through, which will double as a radar helping you locate your enemies all around them. The CPU performance is identical between the two, but the RTX 3070Ti GPU is between 15-25% more capable in benchmarks and workloads. The extra amount of vRAM on the 3070Ti plays a significant role as well, especially in some demanding work applications and games.

The Lenovo Legion 5 Intel Core i7 Gaming Laptop (82RB000XUK) can ensure you stay cool even when the heat is on with Legion Coldfront 4.0. With an expansive heat pipe layout coupled with a fan system 140% more powerful than previous generations, heat transfer becomes a breeze. What's more, with 40% thinner fan blades, it'll be super quiet as it cools.It's not about whether it's annoying or not (although here you are wrong – 27W Is 100% annoying), but about complete silence in this mode. Do smartphones make noise when playing 4k@60fps video? 100% no. Why are all x86 noisy? Apple laptops on ARM do not make noise … WQHD+ (2560 x 1600) IPS, 500 nits, 165-240Hz refresh rate with OverDrive, 100% sRGB, up to VESA DisplayHDR™ 400 Certified, Dolby Vision® support, NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ support, 16:10 aspect ratio Somehow, the i7-12700H in the regular Legion 5i outscores this 5i Pro implementation while running at a lower sustained power and a bit quieter, but the differences are within the margin of error. At the same time, the i7 in the 2022 Legion 5i Pro is competitive against other implementations of the same hardware, and quite a step-up from the AMD platforms in this sort of test, both the Ryzen 6000 and 5000 variants. For comparison, the same specs in the slightly larger Acer Predator Helios 17 return a slight increase in CPU scores (within less than 5% in sustained loads), and the same sort of GPU scores. It’s also worth noting that the components run at slightly lower internal temperatures on this Balanced mode than on Performance, and this aspect makes the Balance profile even more attractive for longer work/gaming sessions.

You can find this laptop in stores in multiple variants, going from i5 + RTX 3050Ti up to i7 + 3070Ti configurations, with various amounts of RAM and SSD storage. To put these findings in perspective, here’s how this Core i7-12700H implementation fares against other higher-tier laptops in this test, both Intel and AMD, as well as the previous-generation Legion 5 Pro 2021 with AMD hardware. NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 30 Series Laptop GPUs power the world's fastest laptops for gamers and creators. They're built with Ampere—NVIDIA's 2nd gen RTX architecture– to give you the most realistic ray-traced graphics and cutting-edge AI features like NVIDIA DLSS. New Max-Q technologies utilize AI to enable thin, high performance laptops that are faster and better than ever.Far Cry 5, 6, Metro, Red Dead Redemption 2, Tomb Raider games – recorded with the included Benchmark utilities;

The final piece of the puzzle is the SSD, which returned decent read and write speeds of 3594MB/s and 1681MB/s, which means it can save and load data on the physical drive at a healthy pace. Next is Maxon's CPU-crunching Cinebench R15 test, which is fully threaded to make use of all available processor cores and threads. Cinebench stresses the CPU rather than the GPU to render a complex image. The result is a proprietary score indicating a PC's suitability for processor-intensive workloads. The power profiles are Quiet, Balanced, and Performance, and you can select them from Vantage or switch between them with Fn+Q. Performance is only available with the laptop plugged into the wall. These profiles apply different power settings to the CPU/GPU and different fan profiles, as well as switch the color of the LED in the power button. As usual, Lenovo delivers a great keyboard: the buttons deliver a great balance between the snappiness required for gaming and the softness needed for longer typing sessions. The buttons are fast and consistent, too. The layout is solid: there’s a numberpad, and the full-size cursor keys are separated from the rest of the unit. For the GPU, the 2022 Legion 5i Pro series is available with RTX 3000 and RTX 3000 Ti graphics chips. What we have on this sample is the RTX 3070Ti running at up to 150W with Dynamic Boost in supported games and applications. In comparison, the 2021 Legion 5 Pros allowed up to 130W of GPU power for the 3070 model.For the RAM and storage options, the laptop still comes with two accessible memory DIMMs and two M.2 SSD slots. Our unit is a 32 GB of DDR5-4800 RAM configuration, with a fast PCIe 4.0 Samsung PM9A1 SSD. The Balance profile allows the laptop to run at around 44 dB, while the Quiet mode keeps the fans at sub-35dB – both these modes come with a drop in performance over the top profile, but Balance is a solid option for gaming and most workloads. The Legion TrueStrike keyboard enables you to strike with extreme precision and satisfying keystrokes—now featuring 33% less percussion noise so you can work in silence. Featuring soft-landing switches that deliver deeper strokes with equal force on every strike, this keyboard provides the comfort you need to play at your best level. Never miss a shot via Legion Spectrum RGB, and a full-sized number pad and even larger arrow keys. At the same time, battery life isn’t amazing with these Intel models, so if you don’t need the extra performance provided by the 12th-gen Intel platforms, you could consider some of the AMD variants instead. Lenovo also only offers the series with 100% sRGB screen options, so if you need a high-gamut display for color-accurate work, this is not for you.
