If you prefer Intel hardware, then the slightly pricier, slightly more powerful Lenovo Legion 5i 15 is for you. With it, you essentially get the same laptop but with stronger hardware in the higher-tier configurations. Specifically, you can outfit the device with up to an RTX 2060 GPU, up to an Intel i7-10750H CPU, and 16GB of RAM. Additionally, the Lenovo Legion 5i 15's display can be configured with an even higher refresh rate of 240Hz, as opposed to the 120Hz max of the AMD version. Overall, the Lenovo Legion 5i 15 is perfect for folks who want to have something a little more powerful and don't mind paying a little extra for it.
