I'm in between getting legion slim 7i(i9 4070) or Asus zephyrus m16 (i9 4070) for about the same price. Which one would you recommend? I watched both of your reviews on them.

[@typerightseesight]

You should talk about how in a year or two they are all gunna have an extra integrated graphics card for A.I. that will basically replace anything you've bought for any amount of money. lol

Hope this helps someone. Searched gaming laptops like crazy for 4 months before I bought a new one 1 month ago (upgraded from MSI 63thin 1660Ti) to Lenovo Legion slim 5 with 4070 and a Ryzen 7840HS. Screen 2560x1600, (QHD). Reviews said some bad stuff and some good stuff about the CPU and GPU but man let me tell you it runs smooth as butter on every game. Thermal has not been a problem at all. What I want to tell people with this comment is just do the amount of research you want but after a while just go for it. Because someone will still say the comp is bad either way.

[@lonewolfMI]

Are you able to stream while gaming?

[@jponz85]

How much did you get it for?

[@jonathangreenberg6415]

Was this a Gen 8? I haven't seen the Legion Slim 5 with 4070. I'm leaning towards the 7840HS+4060 Gen 8. Gen 9 is starting to be available, but pricing is a bit more for the 8845HS+4070 than I'm looking to spend. (My Nitro 7 suffered hinge failure recently, so looking to move up from 10750+1660ti - though I will miss the triple m.2 configuration) 5 months ago I was waiting for the Acer PH16 i7/4070 to drop back to good sale pricing... now I'm hinge-salty.

[@KrisandTodorandIck]

The worst reviews ive heard about similiar laptops is that they use lots of power and apparently easier to overheat Forget about the overheating part about how much did your electrical bills went up by lol

[@casperellison5729]

I explained to a computer salesman Tip # 4 when I was window shopping 2mos ago, funny thing, he labelled me as too finicky on specs. Did not bother to justify, as he didn’t know most of the specs he was selling. Awesome tips Jarrod! Might use them next year as thinking of finally upgrading my devices.

Only thing I'd like to add is paying attention to heat and noise of the laptop. Overall an easy to digest and useful video. Much appreciated.

[@ravipeiris4388]

I purchased a HP Omen 15 with an integrated 10 key layout in early 2021. It was my first ever gaming laptop running a 1660 ti. While I hardly ever game on it, as I utilize my desktop computer for that, the HP Omen means a lot to me emotionally as it's my backup just in case I'm unemployed and my desktop computer crashes. Something I've experienced in the past. So, my gaming laptop means more to me than just playing games.

[@frenchfryinyourmcdonaldsba8688]

Hi Jarrod'sTech, I want to emphasize my thankfulness for your KZbin channel and your through reviews on gaming laptops. I'm looking for a new laptop to replace my problematic Dell Alienware laptop and your YT videos really help me in honing in on deals and what to look out for. After dealing with Dell, I would emphasize to new buyers that reading reviews on the manufacturer and on the product itself is extremely important. Buying an Alienware x15 R2 has been nothing but motherboard issues and my warranty all of sudden was 'not found'. This is my 5th time in 3 months I've had this issue. Also, my previous laptop, I would emphasize more on cooling tech and staying away from plastic chassis'; because omg I promise you if you don't its like your touching a grill while playing games or other GPU-intensive work. Also for battery consumption for work, watching videos, etc. I recommend going into the Windows settings for common apps such as Chrome, Edge, Media Player - switch it to use the Integrated GPU instead of the Dedicated GPU for maximum power-saving. It's literally night and day.

[@mohammedsarker5756]

yeah never buy alienware

[@yudhaadityasukmanto]

@@mohammedsarker5756 yes they're overpriced also overrated.

[@andreabeccarisi1126]

Hey man, just a question on 4070 laptops. I know you discussed it plenty and it turned out to be basically equal to 3070ti, but in Legion 5 pro 2023 review you published, the 1% low was actually much worse than 3070ti. I wonder if with updated drivers the current scenario for 4070 improved vs a few months back. You are the best!

[@Maxiow]

I know this probably isn't the answer but just trying to help I'd say if you don't currently have a 3000 series laptop, 4060 or 4070 are no-brainers, great bang for the buck ( even though the 4060 is better when thinking about cost-benefit ) but even if it costs a lot more the 4080 or 4090 are much better choices ( I'll buy a 4080 one myself next year, the improvement from my current 3060 is around 108%, not taking into account the processor, ram differences and everything else pretty much ).

[@andreabeccarisi1126]

Thanks, I appreciate your answer. Currently rocking a 3070 legion 5, I am still pondering if I should get a 4070 laptop (with current BF sales + re-selling the current one, the upgrade would not cost me much) or go for a 4080 (EU prices for these are atrocious)

[@fleurdewin7958]

@@andreabeccarisi1126 4070 is just a bad deal for mobile. The thing is, usually it cost almost 300 Euro to step up from 4060 to 4070 but you don't get more VRAM or a significant performance boost. I'll say its either 4060 or 4080 for mobile, skip the 4070. 4070 to 4080 is such a significant step up in performance that it is actually worth it if you can afford.

[@AlienGurke]

I love your Videos! You’ve helped me so much to pick the laptop I ultimately have landed on. I’ve bought and returned a few to Best Buy simply because I didn’t know what I should be looking for. I ended up on the Acer Predator Helios neo 16. Plenty of ports, excellent display, 4060 gpu, and the rgb keyboard for more fps 😁. I’ve already upgraded to a 2tb ssd and 32gb ram. Thanks so much!

[@retr6vailles]

Hi! I’m also planning to buy this laptop. Can you tell me more about the pros and cons of it? Specially about its battery life; does it drain fast? How many hours does it usually last?

[@tcobbish]

[@ThatNerdGuy0]

my laptop that I recently got has been perfect for me I used to run on a thinkpad x390 which was really slow, so any upgrade was amazing for me. I ended up getting a top specced dell g16 (not the new g16 with the 40 series, but the old one with 30 series. Those 40 series are way too expensive), and it has been amazing. high resolution with 165hz, and 32 whole GB of ram. also for reviews I recommend looking at patterns in the negative reviews, such as people complaining that there was only one ssd slot, and ignoring the one off issues like john doe saying his computer broke after 3 days of use.

[@charlottewatkinson]

thank you so much, I'm a gamer and going to go Curry's tomorrow to buy a new laptop, due to my current one being to old and very little storage and the max fps i get on my games is between 30/40 and didn't really know what to look for and this video helped me a lot.

[@korniestpatch]

Some feedback for Tip 4. I don’t know what unit measurements you are talking about for brightness and I am sure there are lots of people that do know. But adding the word onto the screen with the unit of measurement helps me identify the values I need to be concerned with.

[@circumcisio10]

Laptops were initially manufactured with a CPU socket, just like they are now on motherboards. However, they soon started soldering them, understandably, as it generated more profit. After experiencing significant heating issues with older models, users were told that the CPU had failed and that they needed to buy a new laptop. Meanwhile, companies were refurbishing (CPU reballing) and reselling the same laptops. Today, laptops generate less heat and have fewer breakdowns, but the reballing method remains the same. That's why we don't drive cars on hydrogen but on fuel :). Good video!

[@ABooD-tw1gj]

The price part is actually really tricky, I might find a laptop that reviewers said it costs 1200$ while that's only true in the states, while in other continents that same gaming laptop can go up to 1600$ or even way more.

These would convey more meaningful information as to how capable these machines are and if they are significantly better than our existing system.

1) Gpu can't be replaced, so choosing a good GPU is important 2) Cpu or processor which is the brain of the laptop is also important as some games requires more cpu than Gpu 3) Ram and ssd is also important -> 1 TB ( For ram we can upgrade, but cpu and GPU we can't upgrade so choose wisely) 4) Size of lap (14,15,16) easily portable, 17 & 18 tough 5) Screen i) Brightness (300-500 nits) ii) high refresh rate -> 144hz refresh rate Iii) low response rate under 10ms Iv) high color gamut -> 90% of srgb covering v) Resolution - 1080p for small size 1440 for large size V) good resolution 6) Battery - big laps contain big batteries and small laps contain small 7) check what were all the ports are available 8) check detailed reviews

My problem is that I want a 2kg laptop like the Zephyrus M16 with a 4090, but instead of a 13900H a 7940HS and with a numpad, and unfortunately there's no such laptop...

What's the best laptop for graphic design and gaming?

[@afrraf4151]

Thank you jarrods tech Finally I have a choice of buying the msi katana 15 rather than asus rog strixg16 it is much cheaper Had a higher cpu and gpu and the last one is the usb port only 2 usb port for rog I already knew the downside of this msi katana 15 but I considered the thing that I am just a generic gamer

Ive bought an Alienware m17 r5 6800h/3070ti/16ddr5/512 for £955. Dell refurb with 11mo warranty in like new condition. It's a good replacement of my Nitro 5 10400h/1660ti/16ddr4/512 in excellent condition sold for £400.

I just get lenovo legion pro 5i 8th gen with 4060 ,and i7 32gb...im very happy and believe gonna be more than fine in the next 5 years. For just 1700 euros..

Thanks jarrod!

[@kennysponto6568]

The new legion 5 oled 14.5 is ok. Except you have to really look at some videos with fine type in display portal. Like blender toutirial. The text is blurry! At HD 1080p! 😮

Build quality if also a very important aspect that these youtube reviews pretty much always omits...like the hinge failure issues that plagued some high-end laptop models in the past few years.... So I suggest going online and do some deep research before spending your money.

What if I am using for civil softwares like autocad, Revit, tekla Which one is better

[@theoneknight8534]

I also use CAD programs . Rtx 4050 is a great choice for CAD programs . Just make sure to get a good cpu , amd has in general has better battery so if your on the go it might be good .

[@theoneknight8534]

@@sakthivel-ej1pgryzen has better battery life in general and intel and ryzen have very similar performance but make sure you get a ryzen 7 or i7 for cad programs .

[@BobMcBurger1]

Things would be so much easier if the market wasn't so diverse. More specifically on the chips. Got my first and only gaming laptop back around 2018 and it's served me well. Ryzen 7 with an average GPU but the other specs like the screen I don't remember. Even then I rarely have performance issues when gaming nor do I particularly care how good the game looks ie how far I can push it. I might replace in the next year or two, but like I mentioned, its a fiasco for finding the right CPU, GPU and everything else on top.

First tip: Actually have money

Couldn't agree more.

Let me know if I did okay I bought a dell g15 i7 12700h rtx 3060 1t ssd 16gram only 120hz :( but I only paid 900 cad =650 usd also anything I could do to improve my gaming/streaming experience on this laptop

[@iamthe1whowillbringpeace316]

Do benchmark check before buying a gaming laptop and make sure you get ddr5 ram atleast . Dont go with ddr4 with better gpu

Hey J - I gan get a 2023 HP Victus with a Ryzen 7 7840HS CPU, RTX 4060 GPU and 16gb RAM. However, I cant find any reviews of the Victus with these specs, most have RTX 30 series or RTX 4050 with slower CPUs. Would you consider this a good buy for entry level to mid range gaming laptop?

[@Benjamin-Hoeslayer]

I think its enough For gaming

[@ВолодимирФелик-п4м]

What about eGPU? Do You have some video about it?

[@RiverHeights]

I can't wait till I have the opportunity to buy a gaming laptop
