Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15 Laptop, 15.6 FHD Display, AMD Ryzen 5 5600H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, 8GB RAM, 256GB Storage, Windows 10H

So I’m a 34 year old dad who loves gaming but doesn’t have the time or money to invest heavily in a full on gaming system, also I wanted a good entry level laptop with a nice keyboard. I stumble on this read everyone’s reviews and say ok let’s do it. Right off the bat i love it, windows is smooth, everything great. The next day I buy 2 x 16 crucial ram and upgrade from 8 go to 32 this took 5 mins: I download hades the game open it and….wow, beautiful and fast, no glitching nice frame rate, the white backlit keyboard glowing nicely in my room. It’s perfect for a casual gamer like me, the keyboard is comfy and amazing, next I’ll be adding a m.2 ssd since they left a connection and open space. This is the value of values. For more top end games I’m not sure but for me it’s perfect.

Although its a decent computer, the keyboard #2 key is sticking and not working half the time. Battery life while gaming is very short. As far as gaming goes. One game and 80gb later and the drive is almost full. Be prepared tp add a stick of ram and an external drive or secondary aolid state.

sucks

Follow the reviewers describing the ram & storage and you will have a great computer for the cost! I know nothing about computers. But through the magic of YouTube I learned how to very easily upgrade this laptop and now use it to play The Witcher 3 and eventually other games.

it allows 1 extra monitor via HDMI. make sure to go to AMD support and download the Radeon Software. its not included by Lenovo. the Radeon software will automatically optimize the graphics card. it also allows you to tweak the displays and GPU settings. theres a Setting in Display called Virtual Super Resolution that sharpens the display on a large connected screen. i had display fuzziness on the second screen (24 monitor) until i installed the Radeon Software.

I am going to buy this laptop for my son for christmas so he can play video games,and my so my son said that the laptop was really good and I researched it and I think it is really good

I love my computer this is the brand i always buy. However this computer was not new the warranty had already been activated leaving me with only 8 months of coverage I will only purchase from Lenova like beforehand.

Firstly, the bios for this thing is literally a joke. There is no real co figuration for the bios and it’s basically a GUI that lays over the real bios to keep you from doing anything. Secondly, it does not support any m.2 storage devices other than the microscopic one that comes installed. The laptop has almost no ability to recognize external devices, my 600$ custom keyboard just doesn’t exist to this laptop at all. But my busted razed mouse connected and worked properly within a millisecond. This thing is a joke for hardware compatibility and software interface. But aside from the nightmare of that stuff, it’s pretty solid and I will be extensively pushing this thing to update my review later on it’s gaming capabilities

It is little bit slower to start and shut down.

I love this laptop. Great for gaming and whatever else you want to do. Good cooling system as well. Just upgrade the ram with another 8gb stick and youll be good to go.
