The Cleanest Gaming Laptop Yet

2018-11-18
hey guys this is Austin and this is about the cleanest gaming laptop you'll ever find this video is sponsored by Lenovo and this is the légion Y 7000 so if you guys are not familiar Legion is Lenovo's gaming brand and they're doing some really interesting stuff first of all take a look at this laptop you know what you won't find RGB or roll really anything that sort of screams gamers this is a very understated design and I like it combine that clean white lighting with the all matte black look and this is a seriously different gaming laptop and is also helped by the fact this is a nice soft touch material as well performance is definitely a strong suit with you why 7000 inside you'll find the core i7 87 58 this is the latest generation 8th gen processor which importantly has now a 6 cores but also a boost clock of up to 4 point 1 gigahertz no sure games are becoming more more multi-threaded to take advantage of that 6 core processor where I really notice the biggest difference isn't multitasking even when I have a ton of programs and tabs up maybe I'm doing something that you installing a game in the background or trying to stream it does hold up that i7 is backed up by a full NVIDIA GTX 1060 with 6 gigs of RAM so this is a really good combination for a gaming laptop like this especially when it comes to playing at 1080p the 1060 has absolutely no problems this 1080p panel is pretty solid it's a full fifteen point six inches and importantly it does have a pretty decent brightness of around 300 nits from that IPS display I will say there are a lot of configurations with this laptop so my model has 16 gigs of ram which is backed up by a 128 gig SSD and a one terabyte hard drive but you can option this down to eight gigs of ram if you want you can also go for pure SSD storage and one of the cool upgrades is I'd full 144 Hertz panel personally I would opt for that 144 Hertz display this actually has enough power to play a lot of games now a max at 1080p but well above 60 frames per second we're not dead yet that's always a great sign so fortnight is absolutely no problem for the system we're easily able to play at 1080p with fully max settings and we're getting somewhere in the 70 to 80 frames per second range that 144 hertz panel would absolutely be paying off right now so you guys see I didn't die there seriously play something else wait wait why not there's one I seen one fortnight no what do you wanna play oh oh yeah I just died so I guess we have to flip black ops now fine normal fortnight look at the settings here yo shout-out to one who made this one Treyarch this is actually really really nice got global illumination quality subscript surface scattering wow let's actually have proper PC port oh that's a lot of dudes oh wow are you serious everyone's dropping right here it was bad this is really bad listen those speakers actually sounds really good so this does have Harman Kardon audio it has a pair of front firing speakers which sound pretty good to me performance seems to be pretty solid so we are running with pretty much full maxed out settings at 1080p and right now I'm getting about 80 frames the lowest have really seen though is around the 60 mark where it where is that coming from well actually shoot him Wow now this is not the thinnest gaming laptop around but it is fairly portable it's only a little bit over an inch thick and it weighs about 5 pounds realistically this is a nice sweet spot between a super thin and very expensive gaming laptop as well as something that's much thicker it's got good thermals but it's also something that you can actually know say in your backpack or I don't know can what do you do with gaming laptops where do you put them here's the test I can easily hold the laptop in one hand no problem that my friends is the gaming laptop portability test one of the interesting design decisions is to slightly raise the screen in the hinge to give more room for the thermals underneath so basically all the hot air is being exhausted out the back it still doesn't leave room for most of your ports the selection is pretty solid so there is the USBC port which sadly doesn't support thunderbolt 3 but still appreciated we do have mini DisplayPort USB a as well as HDMI and Gigabit Ethernet and on the left on the right side of the laptop we have another pair of USB ports giving you a grand total of 3 that's especially appreciated because even though it's nice to have a lot of the ports around back sometimes you know you want to plug in a flash drive to the side of the laptop the keyboard is classic lenovo which is to say it's about as good as it gets for a laptop not only do the keys have that nice very familiar shape but importantly the feel is pretty much on point and I like for typing but especially for gaming the lenovo legion y 7000 is a seriously dope gaming laptop in only does it have plenty performance for 1080p gaming and streaming but importantly not only does it look nice but it won't break the bank definitely worth a look
