Lenovo Legion Slim 7i / S7 (16″ Intel, Gen 8) review – surprisingly powerful thin gaming laptop
Performance: CPU, GPU, Gaming Tests
CPU options
You can choose between three Raptor Lake-H processor variants – Intel Core i5-13500H, Core i7-13700H, and Core i9-13900H. We’ve chosen to test the most powerful option this time.
Results are from the Cinebench R23 CPU test (the higher the score, the better)
GPU options
Graphics-wise, the video card options are the following – NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 (Laptop, 115W), GeForce RTX 4060 (Laptop, 115W), and GeForce RTX 4070 (Laptop, 140W). In terms of specs, the GeForce RTX 4070 variant should be also a 115W version, but the NVIDIA Control Panel is showing a maximum TGP of 140W. Probably it’s a 115W + 25W configuration thanks to the NVIDIA Dynamic Boost.
The results are from 3DMark Time Spy (Graphics). Higher is better.
Results are from 3DMark Fire Strike (Graphics) benchmark (higher the score, the better)
The results are from 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Unlimited. Higher is better.
Results are from the Unigine Superposition benchmark (higher the score, the better)
