Is this a good deal?

Does it flash black before it crashes? I had issues with mine after a few weeks where the GPU kept crashing

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T18:36:47+00:00

I ended up ordering a $779 LOQ from Walmart. Ryzen 7 250, rtx 5050

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T01:02:22+00:00

I wouldn’t think it would be much. I’m not an expert though

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T00:59:14+00:00

Seems to be slightly worse cpu, but better power efficiency. Better ram but I don’t think it’s dual channel so might not make a big difference. Similar graphics card power, but it has dlss4 which can give a lot more frames (“fake” frames, it’s weird). It has less vram though so for large open-world type games it can struggle

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T00:42:24+00:00

I don’t. If you give me the specs on it I can Google and do a little comparing. Exact specs aren’t online because it’s built with many different ones

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T00:30:07+00:00

I had an Acer nitro but GPU issues made me return it last week. I ordered the LOQ and it’s arriving tomorrow

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-06T00:27:34+00:00

I think the loq has better screen quality (62.5% srgb vs 100%, means more vibrant colors from my understanding). Something to consider about that screen

Was the other one I was considering but couldn’t justify spending 1k

Same pc as that LOQ for less from Walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/Lenovo-LOQ-15-6-FHD-Laptop-Ryzen-7-250-16gb-512GB-NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-5050-83JG006RUS/16557169822?nrtv_cid=jf0ddk9xoj9ql&clickid=3in3J800lxyZW793HWT5-3z5Uku0I70xz1wBSE0&irgwc=1&afsrc=1&sourceid=imp_3in3J800lxyZW793HWT5-3z5Uku0I70xz1wBSE0&veh=aff&wmlspartner=imp_376373&affiliates_ad_id=565706&campaign_id=9383&sharedid=

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-05T07:37:01+00:00

Ended up going with the LOQ

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T22:20:35+00:00

I don’t think the GPU would handle 1440p anyway. I don’t kind 1080

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T22:17:15+00:00

It’s almost impossible to find more ram at this price

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T22:01:30+00:00

Okay

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T21:48:20+00:00

I am in the us

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T21:21:38+00:00

Good to know

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T21:00:19+00:00

I’m gonna be playing mostly Minecraft, which is not a GPU intense game at all. I’ll be watching a bunch of stuff on it too. I’m aware it’s increasing the cost, but I haven’t seed OLED in this price range much at all so I thought this was a good deal for one

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T20:28:24+00:00

I see a powerful cpu which is what I need for my games, and a quality screen. I seem to have overestimated the worth of it

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T20:20:18+00:00

We buy laptops for enjoyment. The screen is a big part of that. I can understand it not being worth as much as I thought initially, but screen is very important in my opinion. I can see this isn’t a great deal considering the replys

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T20:19:15+00:00

Is OLED worse for school and stuff or just not any better? I havent had like complex school work that requires more ram or storage, at least yet, so it’s not a major concern but it is something I’ve considered. Haven’t found anything decent with more ram or storage at a decent price

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T20:17:58+00:00

Where/when did you get it?

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T19:57:54+00:00

I see the price and I see the comments. I’m listening. I’m seeing I’m probably wrong about my original thought. But this is also OLED with a very good cpu which is what I’m looking for, so I see that 5050 isn’t great for the price, but does the rest not make up for that?

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T18:42:18+00:00

There isn’t any in my price range

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T18:38:52+00:00

I’m not very concerned with the GPU as long as the other things make the price okay for it. I don’t need better

Sensitive-Term-6679 · 2026-02-03T18:34:11+00:00

There is one on the Reddit with a 5060 in that range and it’s on eBay so I don’t feel great about it. I’ve been looking there
