The RAM Crisis has made trying to track down RTX 5000 series graphics cards to upgrade PC rigs nigh-impossible due to their jacked up price and scarcity.

In times like this, it's better to find a PC gaming laptop pre-built with an RTX 5000 series graphics card to save you the trouble. Fortunately, one such laptop is on sale for $1499.99 at Best Buy, the Lenovo Legion 7i (Gen 10) with an RTX 5060.

Why buy the Lenovo Legion 7i (Gen 10) gaming laptop?

Of course, the Lenovo Legion 7i 16" (Gen 10) has more to offer than a performance boosting RTX 5060 GPU.

It includes a stylish, all-white chassis that's ultra-light to carry around, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and a bright and vibrant OLED display with 2560x1600 resolution, 165Hz refresh rates, 1ms response time, and 500 nits max brightness.

The Lenovo Legion 7i 16" (Gen 10) also has an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor and high-quality thermal management.

Combine all this hardware, and you have an honorably mentioned contender for one of the best gaming laptops, strong enough to play games like Cyberpunk 2077 at 1600p and 46FPS on ultra graphical settings with Ray Tracing, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 at 1600p and 101FPS on extreme graphical settings with no issue.

On top of that, you will have enough install space to fit in a couple of AAA games and plenty of light indie games to boot.

The only drawbacks of the Lenovo Legion 7i 16" (Gen 10) are that you can only upgrade its GPU up to the RTX 5070, and its regular MSRP of $1,949.99 is too pricey for what you're paying for.

With Best Buy's Tech Fest's 24% discount, however, the Lenovo Legion 7i 16" (Gen 10)'s pricing issue has been mitigated to a more justified cost of $1499.99.

FAQ

How long is this deal available for?

This discount will be open until March 22, 2026, when Best Buy Tech Fest ends.

Yes, because the Lenovo Legion 7i (Gen 10) features two extra m.2 NVMe SSD slots to upgrade its storage space and an upgradeable DDR5 memory.

What is its battery life like?

The Lenovo Legion 7i (Gen 10) has around 6-7 hours of battery life before needing to recharge when put to do light tasks, and much less when playing games.
