Lenovo’s new gaming laptops are both stylish and battle-ready

If you’re in the market for a high performance gaming laptop with a swanky design, the new Lenovo Legion line is definitely worth checking out. The minimalist design is a welcome departure from the traditional gamer aesthetic. You won’t find any emerald green serpents or crimson red accents here. They’re the kind of laptops you wouldn’t mind bringing with you to a professional meeting. As for internals, they’re equipped with either next-gen AMD Ryzen or 12th-gen I

Asus announces a massive 17-inch Windows tablet with a folding screen

Samsung broke the ground, Lenovo brought it to the laptop form factor. So Asus can’t claim to be first in making a laptop that’s essentially one giant, folding OLED panel. But it can stand out in another way: making it absolutely massive. The company announced its Zenbook 17 Fold at CES 2022, offering a folding Windows computer that’s either a massive tablet or conventional with a screen for a keyboard — take your pick.

The Zenbook 17 Fold uses one enormous 17.3-inc

This Lenovo ThinkBook laptop has two screens and it’s blowing our minds

You know what’s better than one display? Two displays. That’s right. Lenovo added an additional screen to its new ThinkBook Plus Gen 3 and we can’t stop talking about it over here at PCWorld. It’s a cool bit of hardware that makes multitasking a whole lot easier. The main display is 17.3-inches with a pixel-packed 3072-by-1440 resolution (plus a refresh rate of 120Hz) and the secondary display is 8-inches with a 800-by-1280 resolution.

Lenovo’s refreshed ThinkPad X1 series packs new Intel chips and OLED screens

Lenovo’s been making the carbon fiber-infused version of the flagship ThinkPad X1 laptop for nine generations, each one incrementally sleeker and ostensibly better. For the tenth generation, announced at CES, Lenovo isn’t reinventing the wheel. But it is tweaking the design to better meet the needs of today’s workers shuffling between home and office, and added a few premium touches like an optional OLED screen upgrade. As usual with the yearly update, this version of

Lenovo’s newest monitors offer sleek modular cameras and soundbars

These days you can assume that someone who buys a desktop monitor will also, at some point, need a camera for video conferencing. That’s the idea behind Lenovo’s latest ThinkVision monitors, revealed today at CES 2022. Instead of leaving it to separate accessories, the 27-inch monitors are designed with modular add-ons: a camera, a soundbar, or both at once. It’s a sleek solution, especially if you’re buying for an office full of users.

Snag an all-AMD gaming PC for just $550

Getting solid gaming parts is still a pain, but this pre-built desktop from HP is making things a bit easier. The manufacturer’s online store is selling an all-AMD gaming desktop with a Radeon RX 5500 for $550. That’s $100 off of the sticker price, $50 better than the sale price we saw in October, and an overall great starter price for an entry-level gaming rig.

Even Apple said this MSI laptop smokes the M1 Max MacBook Pro, and it just got faster

Few things are guaranteed, but we can tell you without a doubt that MSI’s updated GE76 Raider is faster than Apple’s touted MacBook Pro 16.

How do we know? Because Apple has already admitted the older GE76 Raider—our favorite gaming notebook of 2021—was faster than its M1 Max-based MacBook Pro 16, and MSI just updated it’s CPU, GPU, and cooling system to make it even faster.

While the older faster than MacBook Pro 16 featured up to an 8-core Intel Core i9-1

Why less memory means more in AMD and Nvidia’s new budget GPU battle

Usually, you want to see more in graphics cards. More graphics cores, more memory, more HDMI ports, more RGB bling and extra features, more. But in the budget GPU battle that’s brewing (FINALLY) between the just-announced $249 Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 and $199 AMD Radeon RX 3050, less may actually mean more for PC gamers.

Neither Nvidia nor AMD divulged many hard technical details about their new budget graphics cards, which are both set to hit the streets later this month. From what w

CES 2022: All the chip news

AMD, Intel, Nvidia, Qualcomm: CES always ushers in a flood of chip news that sets the stage for the year to come, and CES 2022 has been no different.

Two broad themes stand out: a concerted effort by AMD and Nvidia to develop low-end GPUs that (hopefully) will be widely available, and the introduction of next-gen CPU platforms by both AMD and Intel. Here’s all of PCWorld’s coverage, filed from our homes while CES limped on.
