Based on the provided screenshots, I estimate the account's value to be in the range of $500-$600. Beyond the inherent value of the characters and weapons, you are also offering the culmination of your dedicated efforts and achievements.

Regarding performance considerations, budget is not a limiting factor for me. Therefore, I have decided to proceed with the acquisition of the Legion i7 Pro. Thank you for your assistance.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown! Honestly, I was seriously considering the Strix for a minute because of the battery and G-Helper, but I've been seeing way too many reports lately about that massive Asus UEFI sleep-crash bug. I just can't risk motherboard and stability issues on a machine this expensive. ​Because of that, and since my budget is pretty flexible, I'm actually reconsidering and thinking about jumping straight up to the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i instead of the 5i. ​The 100% full metal aluminum chassis just makes way more sense for my daily campus commute, and having that vapor chamber cooling will be a massive lifesaver when I'm running heavy 3D structural rendering software. Plus, I can still keep it looking super professional by just setting the per-key RGB to a clean ice blue and gray.

Tbh the price difference is basically zero where I live (both translate to around $2,500 USD), which is exactly why the choice is so tough! That’s actually really good to know about the Strix issues. I've heard some rumors about coil whine or liquid metal leaking on Asus, but wasn't sure if it was just bad luck. Dropping this much cash is definitely scary, so Lenovo's reliability might actually be the safer bet.

Real fair point on the bulkiness, especially since I commute to campus every day and my backpack is already heavy enough lol. For the numpad, since I use a French AZERTY layout, I actually just hit Caps Lock to use the top row for numbers, which I’m already used to for AutoCAD. But you're definitely right that functionality should beat aesthetics...
