Our model is a mid-tier configuration, with the Intel Core i5-1035G4 processor, 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and a 512 GB PCIe SSD, well suited for an everyday ultrabook and portable school/work laptop. Higher tier configurations get the Core i7-1065G7 processor with the faster Iris Pro G7 graphics and 16 GB of RAM, and there’s also the option for the Nvidia MX350 dGPU, most likely a direct followup of the MX250 implemented on current ultraportables. I wouldn’t pair that with an IceLake i7 configuration, as it would negate the improved iGPU in the 10nm Intel hardware.

Lenovo Legion Y740 (17-inch) review: Understated design conceals superior Nvidia RTX firepower

Lenovo Legion Y740 (17-inch) review

The Good: One of the first laptops on the market with the latest Nvidia RTX graphics cards. High-performance display. Rear ports prevent cord tangles on the sides. Highly programmable RGB keyboard lighting. Understated, professional look. The Bad: Heavy. Keyboard feels a bit mushy. The Bottom Line: The Legion Y740 delivers cutting-edge gaming performance at a considerably lower price than the competition. Many gaming laptops wear their credibility on their proverbial sleeves, garnished with glowing serpents or alien logos. The top dog of Lenovo's Legion series, the Y740, is straightforwardly all business.   We really liked last year's edition of this laptop for its subtle design, competent performance and reasonable price. Then the 2019 version surfaced at CES in January looking quite similar but with some new, cutting-edge GPU options and an enhanced display, addressing two shortcomings of the Y730. Now, our like has evolved into something more like love.  New display and GPU for 2019Available with a 15-inch or 17-inch IPS display, the Y740 now features 144Hz full HD with G-Sync support, providing smoother gaming performance with fewer artifacts. And, more importantly, it can be configured with the new GeForce RTX series -- the 2060, 2070 Max-Q or 2080 Max-Q. These new graphics cards feature ray-tracing technology that enhances in-game lighting and reflection. (The Max-Q variants, which deliver slightly less power than their full-size counterparts, are designed to fit inside of thinner laptops.)  The 15-inch model starts at $1,750 (£1,370 and AU$2,450), and the 17-incher at $1,950 (£1,530 and AU$2,730). Our $2,203.99 test configuration (model 81HH0004US) features the larger display plus most of the top component options: a Max-Q RTX 2080 GPU, a six-core Intel Core i7-8750H processor running at 2.2GHz, 16GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB 7,200 RPM hard drive paired with a PCIe-NVMe 256GB SSD.&nbsp;
