Laptops with dedicated graphics cards and lots of memory probably won't get cheaper anytime soon, thanks to AI companies gobbling up all DRAM stock. Therefore, many gamers are probably looking to upgrade to a new machine in the short term, since patience might not pay off in this particular market situation.
Shoppers who are ready to pull the trigger might want to check out Micro Center's current offer for the well-equipped Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 10. This deal is only available at the retailer's physical stores, which can be found in many big US metro areas. More specifically, the configuration with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX and Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop has been dropped to $2,299, which is several hundred dollars under Lenovo's current asking price for similar SKUs with less storage and RAM.
Most importantly, this configuration of the Legion Pro 7 sports 64GB DDR5 RAM, which means that the vast majority of users won't need to upgrade their memory anytime soon. The Lenovo gaming laptop further features two 1TB SSDs and a good-looking OLED display with 240Hz and QHD resolution.
For all the technical intricacies of the Legion Pro 7 Gen 10, please refer to our comprehensive review of this 16-inch notebook. We tested a very similar model variant that impressed us with the aforementioned OLED screen, fast processor and powerful RTX 5080 with a TGP of 175 watts. On the other hand, Lenovo's high-end machine gets pretty hot while gaming and has a big footprint for a 16-inch laptop. Nevertheless, this Legion Pro 7 deal is a good buying opportunity for gamers who are near a Micro Center location and are looking for a future-proof device.
