Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

I was looking for Lenovo, because in this line the performance is good and the quality of the matrix is ​​​​decent and the price is affordable (many places you can take it in installments for a year, and given inflation and rising prices, this is generally a super idea!) The previous Lenovo G770 laptop model worked flawlessly for 9 years (still in working order, you just need to monitor and clean it)! I only changed the HDD to an SSD (after 5 years of active use it died, which is logical) and changed the RAM (there was 1 bar for 8 GB, I put 2 of the same 8 each to work in dual-channel mode).

Pros
  • Awesome laptop, the best model for your money! Only 106k for RTX2060 with new i7 processor - 10th generation In principle, everything is there, what you need, here is an SSD for a 256 GB system and a 1000 GB HDD, 16 GB of RAM. It works smartly, I didn’t test it in games, because I took it for work. I think it will be enough for 7 years with such parameters.
Cons
  • it is not specified how to enter the bios on the laptop ! Fn + F2 must be held down while the Lenovo logo appears in the lower right corner of the screen. there you already change the boot order of devices and you need to change the mode from UEFI to Legacy, after that the boot will start from the installation flash drive (which you previously prepared). also from the minuses, but this applies to all powerful modern laptops - additional slots for cooling from the bottom (made because of powerful video cards in the first place), and so you will immediately have to take a laptop stand to extend its service life, otherwise they are very they will get very hot, because hot air from below simply has nowhere to go. important! you can buy a stand either as a set (if there are discounts in stores) or for cashback (many stores earn points for a purchase and then you can just spend them on a stand). Please note that the stand should be designed for the diagonal of your laptop, and the fans on it should preferably be exactly where the slots are made from the bottom of the laptop. Do not be too lazy to read reviews about the stands before buying them (pay attention to the operation of the fans, their location and size). 1 large fan in the center will blow better than 2 small ones, and many small ones should not be considered at all).
