If gaming, just get the Lenovo Legion Pro 5i. It would be a much better laptop. This can work and my wife uses it for editing on Photoshop. I tried gaming and played Halo Infinite and Farm Sim 2025. It could do it but you could tell it was at its limits. Playing for 30 min and it started lagging in the middle of playing. I'm sure it would do better lowering all my settings. Just my opinion.

In some reviews, users noted a negative power draw due to demanding more wattage from the CPU and GPU simultaneously that exceeds what can be supplied by the included power adapter. If this system meets the system requirements for the games you wish to play, we recommend refraining from using max performance mode when gaming to prevent this (as disclosed in the settings to configure this in Lenovo Vantage). Also, there is a higher wattage power adapter for this Yoga Pro 9i that's currently available outside of Best Buy's site to deliver sufficient power for intensive gaming workloads.
