The Legion Y540-15IRH is back again, with us already having reviewed the GeForce RTX 2060 version earlier this month. Our first review unit demonstrated that Lenovo had made improvements to the chassis and cooling system compared to the Legion Y530 while delivering the usual bump in performance between generations too.
This model also came with 16 GB of RAM, a 1 TB SSD, a 2 TB HDD and an Intel Core i7-9750H, the combination of which made for a decent 15.6-inch gaming laptop.
Now it is the turn of its cheaper sibling, specifically the Y540-15IRH-81SX00B2GE, which retails for around 20% less than our first review unit at 1,400 Euros . The device retains the CPU and 16 GB of RAM of our first review unit, although Lenovo has made some cutbacks to keep costs down.

You don’t always have to pay exorbitant amounts of money to get a solid gaming system. Case in point: the MSI GL62M 7REX . This laptop delivers good performance on both the gaming and productivity fronts, thanks to an Intel Core i7 processor and an entry-level Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU.
And the system has a surprising amount of gamer-friendly software, whereas competing systems are typically loaded with bloatware. However, a dim display and weak audio keep the 7REX from earning a higher rating.

In our test configuration, the m15 R4 faces our chosen competition with an Intel Core i9-10980HK and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile. However, other laptops from our database can be added for comparison under each section.

I tested several games, like Hitman 3, Far Cry 5, and Rise of the Tomb Raider. There’s no doubt that the subtle design elements on the TUF Gaming F15 help you with gaming, like the huge palm rest area or RGB keyboard with differently marked WASD keys for an enhanced gaming experience, or the honeycomb vents at the bottom of the chassis. The laptop handled all these titles with ease, and at no point, I felt that the device was underpowered.
I didn’t notice any frame rate drops or performance-related issues, even if I chose the highest graphics settings on various games. For example, I chose the Ultra setting while playing Far Cry 5, while I chose Max settings while playing the Rise of the Tomb Raider.
