light games
The Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 is a laptop for those on a tight budget. The GTX 1650 is capable of handling some multiplayer FPS titles like Fortnite, Valorant and CS-GO at really high framerates. However, you will need to lower the settings or lower the resolution for other AAA titles if you want better performance.
The IdeaPad line of laptops should also be a portable system that offers a balance between work and gaming. The company offers a game-centric setup, but they will come at a higher price.
