Lightweight gaming

The Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 is a laptop for those who are on a tight budget. The GTX 1650 is capable of handling some multiplayer FPS titles like Fortnite, Valorant and CS-GO at really high frame rates. However, you will need to lower the settings or reduce the resolution for other triple-A titles if you want to get better performance.

The IdeaPad line of laptops is also meant to be portable systems that provide a balance of work and gaming. The company does offer a gaming-centric configuration, but these will come with a higher price tag.
