Lenovo introduced the new-gen Legion 5 gaming laptop back at CES in January. After months of wait, the laptop is finally available for purchase in Nepal. So, without further delay, let's get into the Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 9 (2024), its features, specifications, price in Nepal, and availability.

Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 9 (2024) Overview

Performance 

At the heart of the Legion 5i Gen 9 is the formidable Intel Core i9-14900HX Raptor Lake Refresh CPU, providing users with robust processing capabilities. This, combined with the option to configure up to an RTX 4070 laptop board, positions the Legion 5i Gen 9 as a reliable platform for gaming and content creation. Just like the Legion 7i, with whom this gaming laptop shares a lot of similarities, the "Coldfront: Hyper" thermal design ensures efficient heat management, preventing mixing hot exhaust air with cold intake air. This design distinction allows the Legion 5i Gen 9 to achieve a maximum TDP of 190 W, showcasing Lenovo's commitment to optimal performance. It also features Lenovo's LA1 Ai chip which changes power draw, fan curves, and other settings on the fly to suit your present workflow needs.
