Was looking at buying from either of these 2 laptops since a few days. Sort of need it in the next few weeks. Main usage is Adobe Suite (After effects, Premier, Photoshop, Illustrator), Blender, Vegas, some CAD. No gaming.
I already have a couple desktops that I mainly do work on and I intend to purchase one of the RTX 4xxx cards the next year. Will be traveling a lot this year, so this one is mainly for being able to do at least 70-80% of my work on the go, if not heavy duty rendering. Ability to render would be nice, but not a priority.
I'm looking at these Legions in particular because of the abundance of ports, okay screen (will still use external color accurate monitor), decent thermal design, and seemingly good build quality.
Option 1
Lenovo Legion 5 (82JW00E2IN)
5800H, 16gb, 512 SSD, RTX 3050
95k
Option 2
Lenovo Legion 5 (82JU010NIN)
5800H, 16gb, 1TB SSD, RTX 3060
1.31L
No other difference between the two other than charger. Display is also the same.
Is it worth the nearly 35k difference for getting a 3060, given my use case?
I don't really want to spend more than 1L on this laptop, but if its necessary, I can consider stretching the budget.
EDIT
Nevermind, ended up ordering it!
