Legion Y920 From Lenovo Gets Mech Keyboard and G-Sync Display
Okay granted, it doesn't have the biggest screen, but it sure is a beauty. Lenovo is now shipping their Legion Y920 laptop. This high-end unit will get a mechanical keyboard and G-Sync display. The screen is based on an 17" IPS Full HD (75Hz ) panel (1920x1080).
Lenovo fitted the laptop with a choice of a Core i7-7700HQ or the Core i7-7820H, which is Intels most powerful laptop chip. The hardware is paired by a GeForce GTX 1070and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. your storage options include a 128/256/512GB SSD plus a 1TB hard drive.
The Legion's keyboard features a 10-key pad and per-key RGB back-lighting. There's another bonus: If you buy the laptop with the Core i7-7820K, pressing the Y920’s built-in “Turbo” key triggers a no-hassle factory overclock using the included Turbo Boost utility. The Lenovo Legion Y720 Laptop also comes with Thunderbolt 3.
The Y920 comes with a Killer Ethernet jack and Wireless-AC 1535 WIFI. The 4.4kg / 10.14 pounds weighing laptop gets a 90Wh battery. The notebook measures 16.7 × 12.4 × 1.41 inches and is constructed with an ABS plastic material. However, Lenovo did a great job to make the lid feel premium and look like metal. Here in the EU the Y920 will become available at the end of the month with a starting price of 2899 euro / $2,699 USD.

I hear you guys, I was going to say its at least 1k too high, that is the main reason why gaming laptops will never be a thing, not lower performance, not being smaller, the price is ridiculous, and companies still don't learn. And I thought lenovo were smart, I'm still using my 6 year old y570 which was thee best price for money out there by a huge margin.

Unfortunately it's getting old and I have no idea why companies keep on doing that. I am pretty sure they don't earn nearly as much as they would if they had lowered the price.

It always amazes me how laptop vendors think its alright to stick an $1000 on the price tag just because the device is portable. A desktop with those specs would perform equally as well (if not better thanks to more efficient cooling methods) and cost less.
