||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.But I have found this to be a lot less productive than the HP even though I like the smoothness of the keyboard and have my hands quite over it I hate the number pad on the side and how different it is and it just seems to have so much lag compared to the HP

Posted .The Lenovo Legion Y540-17 Gaming Laptop ships with the powerful 6-Core/12-Thread Intel Core i7-9750H processor, with a base speed of 2.6GHz and a Turbo Boost Speed of 4.5GHz. The Legion Y540-17 is packed with incredible performance typically only available from desktops, the 9th Gen Intel Core I7 laptop processor delivers desktop-caliber computing power that you can take anywhere. This processor is supported by 16GB of DDR4-2666MHz RAM, a 1TB M.2 NVMe Solid State hard drive and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660Ti GPU with 6GB GDDR6 dedicated RAM on the GPU. The Legion Y540 laptop's keyboard delivers best-in-class gaming controls, giving you the edge over any opponent. Full-sized and top of the line, the keyboard delivers 100% anti-ghosting, laser-engraved WASD highlights, less than 1ms response time, white backlighting, and more, for ultimate control of your system. Further, the Legion Y540 brings Windows Precision drivers with gesture control, for effortless input whether at work or play. If you are getting slower than anticipated performance, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact a Legion Gaming Expert at Legion Ultimate Support at: 888-278-9707.
