Gaming laptops have always been more expensive than desktop gaming PCs with comparable components, even with the comparable components not being as powerful as their desktop counterparts due to the size, power, and heat limitations of stuffing hardware components into a smaller laptop chassis.
This model of the Lenovo Legion 9i contains the most powerful laptop graphics card available, Nvidia’s RTX 5090 with 24GB of GDDR7 VRAM, and Intel’s Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus 24-core processor, plus a massive 64GB of DDR5 RAM (2 x 32) with four RAM slots available, able to support up to 192GB of total RAM. For storage, there is a 2TB SSD, with Windows 11 Home edition pre-installed.
The luxurious 18-inch display features a detailed 3840 x 2400 resolution with a 3ms gray-to-gray response time. The display can reach up to 240Hz at native resolution and up to 440Hz when set to an FHD resolution. The display uses an IPS panel with 520 nits of brightness and a color gamut of 100% DCI-P3
Play your favorite PC games with high frame rates and smooth gameplay with an Intel Core Ultra 9 24-Core processor, RTX 5090 laptop graphics card, 64GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 2TB SSD.View Deal
The Lenovo Legion 9i also uses the latest Thunderbolt 5, WiFi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and 2.5GbE Ethernet. The keyboard is fully RGB backlit with chiclet-style keys. This is a very powerful gaming laptop that you can also use for some serious creative work and go hard on some smaller local LLM models if you want to dabble with some AI workloads.
It is a very expensive laptop, made more costly by the price of RAM and NAND in the current economy. Still, it’s also $1,000 cheaper than the usual price, so if this kind of laptop is something you’re interested in, then head to B&H Photo and check out the RTX 5090-powered Legion 9i available for $5,799.
