Looking for a new laptop under 1000 EUR
What will you do with your laptop?
I plan to use this device for school assignments and gaming.
What is your budget?
Ideally, it should be less than 1000 euros.
Will you often carry your laptop around?
Yes, I sometimes need to take it with me.
Do you have any particular brand preferences?
Not really, but I already found a suitable model at a reasonable price: Lenovo Legion 5 ACH6H 82JU009SMB-Gaming.
Is this laptop currently offering good value for its performance?
It has decent cooling, though the battery life isn’t outstanding—especially for a gaming machine. Can it handle most tasks with these specifications?
If it doesn’t meet your expectations, which one would you suggest?
Thank you in advance!
Hey there,
So, it's a decently specced laptop for gaming.
Pros:
Cool enough CPU. Ryzen 5600h is a strong gamer, and runs quite cool too (You will still have hot laptop
16gb Ram out of the box is nice. A lot still only come with 8gbs, which is shocking in this day and age.
Cons:
Only 512gb SSD. Again this is shocking. with many games hitting 80gb installs, 512 doesn't last long without having to consciously monitoring storage.
120hz Screen is okay. The norm for this level laptop would be 144hz. Still, 120hz will still be nice and smooth.
In terms of the battery and how long it lasts. You are correct. Hardly a gaming laptop out there doesn't suffer with poor battery run time. Its standard fare and to be expected.
Regarding the specific model and it's cooling system, I can't say. But the CPU runs cooler than Intel similar, so should be okay. You will prob get a lot of fan noise when playing games. This is to be expected.
To consider:
Laptop cooling Pad - This will raise the rear of your laptop and allow more air underneath to go through the cooling system, and keep CPU and internals cooler.
