This particular configuration sports an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, an Intel 12th Gen Core i7-12800H CPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM and 1TB of SSD storage. Its CPU/GPU combo means it's well suited to run the best PC games at its native 1080p resolution, even if you're unlikely to get near its top 360Hz refresh rate.
Lenovo LOQ 15-inch: was $1,1739 now $1,399 @ Amazon
The specs of this 15-inch Windows 11 gaming laptop are certainly respectable at this price point.

That graphics card and processor combo, backed up by 32GB of DDR5 RAM should help you beast all but the most demanding PC games.
Lenovo Legion Pro 7i: was $3,299 now $2,649 B@H
Look, the thick end of $2,700 isn't exactly cheap, but this Lenovo packs in some seriously impressive components under its hood and that $650 saving is still huge. Rocking an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU and an Intel 13th Gen Core i9-13980HX (that boasts 24 cores), it should be able to run the best Steam games at high frame rates at its native (2560 x 1600) screen resolution without breaking a sweat.
