Lenovo Legion 7i Gen 8 RTX 4090 Gaming Laptop for $2699.99
This particular config is nearly the most powerful gaming laptop that Lenovo sells on its site right now. It's equipped with a 16" 2560x1660 QHD+ 240Hz IPS display, Intel Core i9-13900HX CPU, GeForce RTX 4090 GPU, 32GB DDR5-5600MHz RAM, and 2TB (2x1TB) of PCIe NVMe SSD storage.
The 13th gen Intel Core i9-13900HX Raptor Lake CPU is currently Intel's fastest mobile gaming chip. It boasts a max Turbo clock 5.4GHz with 24 cores, 32 threads, and 36MB cache. It goes toe to toe with desktop i9 variants and is probably the best match you'll find for the uber powerful RTX 4090 GPU.
Let's just say the RTX 4090 makes high end gaming on a laptop possible. The RTX 4090 is the most powerful mobile GPU ever, and by a huge margin. It's roughly equivalent to a desktop RTX 3090 GPU. That means this GPU is capable of 4K gaming. Since the display is QHD+ instead of 4K, there should be ample headroom to run max settings and even ray tracing enabled while maintaining comfortable fps.
Some laptop manufacturers gimp the GPU by reducing the amount of power supplied, thus lowering heat and power requirements. Lenovo doesn't do that with its higher end Legion laptops. Instead they compensate with a really aggressive cooling profile that can manage heat better. That also means a thicker chassis than your traditional "ultraportable" laptop and higher power consumption (this one comes with a 330W power brick). However if gaming performance is your priority, Legion laptops are at the top of the heap.
