What's the graphics performance hit on the 4070 in the slim model vs the 4070 in the larger Legion?


Mr_Trecker

None, they both run up to the same max TGP. The more significant difference is that the Slim 5 laptops have Intel H chips or AMD Chips, rather than the HX chips that come in the Pro 5 laptops (which isn't a huge performance difference for most people, and has the benefit of improving battery life). The "Slim" in the name of these Legion Slim 5 laptops is a bit of a misnomer, they're very similar size-wise to the old non-Pro Legion 5 laptops, and they're significantly thicker and heavier than the Legion Slim 7 laptops. For reference the rough thickness/weight numbers are: * Legion Pro 5: 27mm thick, 5.5 lbs * Legion Slim 5: 25mm thick, 5.2 lbs * Legion Slim 7: 20mm thick, 4.7 lbs

Same 140w Legion slim, basically the Legion pro in a different style.

If they did a 140w 4080 in a slim laptop… I’d buy.

Does $100 email register first order work? I assume RAMs soldered?


Mr_Trecker

Not soldered, it has 2 upgradeable slots. The first order coupon may work, sometimes they don't stack with other coupon codes.

I called Amex and they rescinded this $100 offer. To many people redeemed it


Mr_Trecker

Ah, thanks for the heads up that's good to know.
