Save up to $340 on Lenovo RTX 3060 laptops and desktops this President's Day
Lenovo's gaming PCs are always worth looking at when you're in the market for a new laptop or desktop and right now you can save a big chunk of cash on both. Its line of Legion laptops is impressive, covering a range of price points and components, while its desktop machines shouldn't be overlooked either, for the same reason. Essentially, if you're looking for a new machine, today is a great time to upgrade.
The Legion 5 Pro Gen 6 16-inch AMD Premium with Nvidia GPU may have an overly long name, but the core specification is solid. For $1,360 you get an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, which is an eight-core, 16-thread processor with a Max Boost of 4.4GHz and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060. That's a solid combo for any machine, and here you'll stand a good chance of driving that 165Hz 2560x1600 screen with high settings.
The 512GB PCIe SSD is a reasonable enough size for the OS and games, although the single stick of 8GB of DDR4-3200 is a bit miserly for the money. You'll want to upgrade this to take advantage of the dual-channel memory controller—either at the time of purchase straight from Lenovo or after the fact. Other than that though, there's a lot to like about this machine.

The RTX 3060 is the highlight, although the Ryzen 7 5800H is no slouch either. It's a shame about only shipping with 8GB RAM, so that's worth tweaking, but otherwise, there's a lot to love here, including that 2560 x 1600 IPS screen.
