When it comes to gaming on your PC, you’ll want to make sure you’re running hardware that supports the kinds of games you want to play. In the case of Windows-powered desktops like the Lenovo Legion, all of your gaming essentials (solid clock speeds, powerful graphics, great lag reduction, etc.) are more than satisfied. Fortunately, while perusing our go-to retailers for gaming PC deals, we found this exceptional Lenovo offer:

For a limited time, when you purchase the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 8 through Intel, you’ll save $550 on the computer when you buy through Lenovo. It’s down to $1,450 from its usual $2,000.

Why you should buy the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 8

For gaming PCs, what’s running the show under the hood is crucial. The Legion’s core components are totally up to the challenge though. This PC is equipped with an Intel Core i7-13700F with 16GB of RAM and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 GPU. These are the types of peripherals that bring supercharged speeds and response time to the table. We’ve been big fans of NVIDIA’s foray into its Ada Lovelace architecture, and the results are evermore prevalent on the Legion 5i. Think arresting colors and contrast with AI automations adjusting hue and brightness in the blink of an eye.

Your new Lenovo purchase also comes with three months of Xbox Game Pass — with EA Play included — on the house. Once you start putting the Legion 5i through its paces, you’ll want to make sure your PC is capable of cooling itself down. In the case of the Legion 5i, the PC delivers 150W air cooling and does so quietly. The front grille also uses mesh to increase natural air flow. 

Additional features include 1TB of internal storage, several AV and data inputs/outputs, and customizable RGB lighting. You’ll also get Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1 support, and a USB keyboard and mouse combo. 

It’s hard to say just how long this Lenovo sale is going to last, so we advise buying soon if you like the specs and price. Save $550 when you purchase the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 8 through Lenovo. On the way out, we suggest taking a look at some of the Lenovo laptop deals we found this week if you need your gaming to follow you everywhere. We have a solid list of desktop computer deals too.

The Lenovo Legion 5i with RTX 4060 is 37% off for Cyber Week
The Lenovo Legion 5i laptop with the Legion logo on the screen.

Often the home of great gaming laptop deals, Lenovo has a particularly great one for anyone keen to game in style this holiday season. Today, you can buy the Lenovo Legion 5i with a 16-inch screen for just $1,121, meaning you’re saving 37% or $669 off the regular price. It's a hefty price cut, but it’s worth remembering that Lenovo’s estimated value system means that sometimes the original price is optimistically high. But the discounted price is still great either way. One of the better laptop deals around, the Lenovo Legion 5i looks great and packs plenty of punch for the price. Here’s why you’ll want it.

Why you should buy the Lenovo Legion 5i
Lenovo is one of the best gaming laptop brands around and my personal favorite of the bunch. Having owned an older Lenovo Legion laptop for a number of years, I’d happily recommend the range for anyone seeking a reliable gaming laptop. With the Lenovo Legion 5i, you get a great upgrade to my four-year-old Lenovo Legion. It has a 14th-generation Intel Core i7-14650HX CPU and it’s teamed up with 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage. The highlight here is its Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card with 8GB of dedicated VRAM. It’s the best graphics card in this price range dodging the downfall of the weaker 4050 GPU.

For $630, you may want to take the plunge on an OLED gaming monitor
The Last of Us Part One running on the MSI MPG 321URX.

OLED prices are dropping fast -- and I mean really fast. For Cyber Week, you can pick up the MSI . Keep in mind that just over 12 months ago, this exact same panel was selling for $1,000, and even with newer monitors making the rounds, this is still one of the best gaming monitors you can buy.

Now, I haven't used this exact monitor, but I have plenty of experience to make an informed recommendation here. I've seen this panel at work in the Alienware 27 QD-OLED, and I've tested plenty of MSI OLED monitors like the MPG 321URX. That's all to say, while I haven't reviewed this specific monitor, I'm intimately familiar with just about every aspect of it.
