The Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 combines an AMD Ryzen 5000H Series processor and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series Discrete GPU. This is interesting because previously the IdeaPad Gaming series only used the GeForce GTX series.
This combination is even more special because this laptop uses a 100% sRGB screen with a Refresh Rate of 165 Hz like the Lenovo Legion 5.
More curious about this Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 laptop? Has this cheap gaming laptop series from Lenovo really gone up in class? Let's take a look at the main specifications of the Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3 below:
Processor
AMD Ryzen 5 5600H
Codename – Cezanne
CPU Architecture – Zen 3
Fabrication – 7 nm
6-Core/12-Thread
Total L3 Cache – 16 MB
Integrated Graphics
AMD Radeon Graphics with 448 Stream Processor.
In Default state, Laptop allocates 2 GB of system RAM for Integrated Graphics.
Fortunately, the allocation size can still be reduced to 512 MB or 1 GB in the BIOS menu.
Memory/RAM
8GB DDR4 3200MHz Single Channel.
There is still one empty SO-DIMM slot so it can be upgraded without disturbing the built-in RAM.
Storage
512GB SSD M.2 NVMe PCIe
The funny thing is, the position of this main SSD turns out to cover the space to add 2.5 Inch SATA Storage.
Even though in the sales package, brackets and cables are provided for installing a 2.5 Inch SSD / HDD.
This laptop actually still has a second M.2 slot but unfortunately it is intended for SSD size 2242 which is quite rare in the market.
Discrete Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU with 4GB GDDR6
Its Maximum Graphics Power value is 85 Watts which is slightly higher than the NVIDIA set value
Of course, the Resizable BAR feature that can improve gaming performance in certain games is already active on this laptop.
