The RTX 3070 video card found in this laptop has a TGP rating of 125W (140W with power boost), which is the fastest RTX 3070 mobile variant you’ll find in any gaming laptop. Most other RTX 3070 gaming laptops have a TGP rating of under 100W, which translates to lower performance. This is done deliberately to conserve power and reduce heat.

Lenovo Legion Tower 5 RTX 3060 Gaming PC

The Lenovo Legion gaming desktops are often very highly rated for their build quality.

50% Off Devil May Cry 5 SE for PS5

This is only possible if your TV has an HDMI 2.1 input. If not, you’re stuck with 4K @ 60Hz, which is not really a problem because it still looks and feels amazing.
