With its Legion range, Lenovo strives to offer advanced gaming configurations but at sometimes steep prices. It’s because fitting all the components, including a large graphics card, into a 16-inch chassis requires special know-how. Among other things, the space must be well ventilated to ensure optimal performance. Fortunately, these laptops are sometimes found on promotion and this is the case today with this Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 7 with an RTX 3070 which sees its price go from 2399 euros to 1199 euros.
The big spring cleaning consists of getting rid of old things to give your home a new look, but also to offer new ones, just to balance. Lenovo might have been thinking something like this with this SPRING promo code on its Legion 5i Gen 7 with an RTX 3070 and 12th Gen Core i7 which divides its price by two. But whether you plan to throw away your old laptop or not, you can’t miss this deal.

Instead of the usual 2399 euros, the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 7 is now available on promotion at 1199 euros in the official store.

Finally, we have support for the Dolby Vision format, an HDR technology which extends the range of brightness, as well as G-Sync which is Nvidia’s VRR technology to solve the problems of image tearing and jerkiness including some games. can be subject. As for the chassis itself, it has full connectivity on the sides but also at the back.
