care to provide evidence?

In our country, throughout the fall, large marketplaces were selling old, but in sealed boxes, L5Pro with 6800H+3060 16/1Tb for $900-920 with a 4-zone RGB keyboard. True, with a 1-year warranty, and not 2, as according to psref Despite the fact that it has 2.5k with 16:10 and a completely metal case, and there is a USB40 (eGPU).

What's the joke with this Legion 5 (16:9/no USB40/eGPU/plastic case) at almost the same price in the USA now on the last day of winter 2024? Explain?

For games 2023-2024, the 4060 is still very weak, especially at 2.5k. Even with DLSS in fhd it doesn't hold up much anymore.

And for work, 16:10 is much more comfortable. And the metal case is better. And there is practically no difference in processor between them. At the same time, you can even connect a desktop 5090 to the old L5Pro 2022 via USB40 in the future...

they're selling them like hotcakes, there's 200+ reviews, 80 sold in 24hrs

George, you will need some extremely good luck, patience or both to get a 165 Hz 1440p colour-accurate screen (DE under 2, 100% sRGB, 88% AdobeRGB) with an RTX 4060 for that price. Plus the fact that you can game many games at 1440p native (without DLSS) on that GPU, like literally 99% of existing games on the market (and no, I am not counting Solitaire and similar there).

For those where you struggle to get 60+ fps you can either use maxed/ultra details + DLSS or drop the resolution down to 1080p without DLSS, your choice. Or simply choose "very high" graphical preset instead of ultra.

You are a bit unrealistic if you are serious about the US$300-500 price range. I mean you can get a good FHD-gamer, sure, with a trash screen on a good discount (RTX 3060 however, for $498 back in November 2023, with 8 GB RAM though).

Oh Gee... FHD gaming for $500-1000? LOL!!!!

Indeed, that IS the proper price point for FHD gaming until it finally breaks the $500 barrier and is valued at $300-500 (along with all 'entry level' PC's).

With iGPU's getting better all the time it is only a matter of time before just about ANY PC can do FHD gaming out of the box. :)
