> 3 daySo I’m a 34 year old dad who loves gaming but doesn’t have the time or money to invest heavily in a full on gaming system, also I wanted a good entry level laptop with a nice keyboard. I stumble on this read everyone’s reviews and say ok let’s do it. Right off the bat i love it, windows is smooth, everything great. The next day I buy 2 x 16 crucial ram and upgrade from 8 go to 32 this took 5 mins: I download hades the game open it and….wow, beautiful and fast, no glitching nice frame rate, the white backlit keyboard glowing nicely in my room. It’s perfect for a casual gamer like me, the keyboard is comfy and amazing, next I’ll be adding a m.2 ssd since they left a connection and open space. This is the value of values. For more top end games I’m not sure but for me it’s perfect.

> 3 dayDont know what kind of testing is done by the manufacturer before they sell it off because the quality of the laptop us not up to mark. Everything was working well when I received it except for a little back light bleed on the bottom right corner (but you wouldnt notice it most times). Wish the screen was brighter as well but i kinda knew what i was getting. Would definitely recommend to upgrade to 16gb ram and add an extra ssd for more storage as I did especially if you are gaming. Most games work fine in high settings and the fans run well to keep the device from overheating. Another issue came up after 2 weeks of using. Some part inside speaker starts moving whenever I lift the laptop or tap on the left side near the speakers. I opened the laptop to see what it was and still couldnt figure it out. (Will update this review later).

> 3 dayOwned this laptop for a week now and been playing God of War with no hiccups. No regret buying this laptop, easy to open the back for upgrades. The only thing I dont like is no M.2 standoff to install a 2280 SSD. Now my Samsung EVO 970 is useless since I cannot install it. 4 Star unless Lenovo will provide free M.2 stand-off and screw :D

09-11-2024Nice feel to it. Run smooth. Hardware run really hot. Play league run at 79c. Window 11 update will crash and lock up. Battery seem ok. Make sure you have laptop sit on top of the cooling fan for gaming. Its reallly hot. As i say window 11 update will crash the laptop.

> 3 dayI spent weeks trying to find the best budget laptop and landed on this one. For a while I stuck with Acer Nitro 5 as the main contender, but then I came across this one- the Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3. Watched a lot of review videos on it and it had an overall better rating than the aforementioned acer laptop.

> 3 dayAfter reading plenty of reviews and comparing this with other similar systems, I took the leap and purchased it. Ive been playing games on Xbox Game pass with my Xbox Controller and so far they all run great. I do recommend upgrading the RAM to 16GB (comes with 8GB). Its a simple process (check YouTube). Ill also probably upgrade the SSD, as it only has 256GB available. Not horrible, but games can be very large. Cloud gaming is a good option too which runs smooth on this system. Im happy with it so far, definitely recommend!
