Good starting gaming computer

Posted .The Lenovo Legion Y530 laptop is a powerful computing system. It ships with the powerful Six-Core/Twelve-Thread Intel Core i7-8750H processor, supported by 16GB DDR4-2666MHz RAM and the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050TI GPU. This is a high performance system. It will generate heat whenever it is turned on, even at idle, this is normal. The onboard fan will maintain the proper operating temperature for the device. You will hear the fan whenever it runs, this too is normal. Heat, the nemesis of gaming performance, is not a problem with the re-mastered Legion Y530. It features a dual-channel thermal system, offering multiple benefits: individual CPU and GPU cooling, for cooler system temperatures; four thermal vents, for improved airflow; and 70 individual fan blades per channel, to reduce system noise. For 2018, Lenovo retained its place for a second year as the best laptop vendor:

- Cons mentioned:Hard drive
Lots of issues within two months
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When this item was shipped to me, the box was badly damaged and had several holes so I brought it to the store and exchanged it for a new one to be shipped to them. Two weeks after purchasing, the laptop stopped working and had to be sent in for a month to replace the hard drive. Being a college student, especially in computer science, not having a laptop for a month is a major inconvenience. About three weeks after receiving the fixed laptop, the backlight died and I have to HDMI it to my tv in order to do any work on it. I'm extremely disappointed in the amount of issues this laptop has had so early on and would not recommend it to anyone who needs to have a working laptop.

Great laptop but not perfect.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a big fan of the screen resolution. Made me feel like I was watching vga. The built is good but feels a little too plasticky... keyboard is ok but not as great as the thinkpads. I returned this laptop and got an ASUS ROG laptop which of course costs 2x more but is 2x better.
