Deal | Refurbished Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) gaming laptop with RTX 4050 and 2-year warranty sees 33% price drop
While DIY PC gaming is getting more expensive by the day, gaming laptops are still, fortunately, relatively affordable. Whether you want a high-end gaming laptop to play AAA games at QHD/4K or a wallet-friendly option that presents a balance of power and affordability, you can be sure that there is a gaming laptop out there for you.
If you fall in the latter camp, Prycedin, a reputable eBay seller with more than 69,000 reviews and a 98.5% positive rating, is currently selling the Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) gaming laptop for just $639.99. The laptop is “eBay Refurbished” and comes with a 2-year Allstate warranty (linked at the end).
Looking at the hardware, the Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) packs a Core i5-13450HX Raptor Lake CPU, an RTX 4050 laptop GPU, 512 GB of storage, and 12 GB of RAM. The display on the machine is a 15.6-inch FHD panel with a 144 Hz refresh rate, 100% sRGB coverage, 300 nits brightness, and Nvidia G-Sync support.
So, for just $639.99, the hardware inside the Lenovo LOQ 15IRX9 on sale is pretty good. Our only minor gripe is with the 12 GB of RAM and the 512 GB of storage. But you can update both components for pretty cheap, as there are plenty of RAM and storage options on Amazon.
When it comes to the expected performance of the machine, the 10-core Core i5-13450HX and the RTX 4050 laptop GPU should ensure smooth FHD gameplay. For instance, the GPU can play games like Monster Hunter: Wilds at 45 FPS, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 at 74 FPS, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 at 106 FPS, all at FHD/medium.
Additionally, as we noted in our review, Lenovo also allows GPU overclocking. So, you can eke out even more performance from the RTX 4050 with some software tweaks.
Simply put, if you have a limited budget but want a decent FHD gaming laptop, the Lenovo LOQ 15 (2024) on sale should make for a pretty solid purchase.
