IMPORTANT EDIT: To buy this laptop at the frankly amazing price of £899.99, go to lenovo.com/rew…/uk and find the Levovo Y520 and use the code !LENOVOREWARDS! (see the post below for more comments).

A huge thanks to The_Hoff for this information!



I recently posted a deal for the Medion X7847 laptop which did well. However not everyone wants a big, hefty 17" laptop so here's something similar in the smaller & lighter 15.6" form factor...

The cheapest, £999.99 version of the Lenovo Y520 on Lenovo's online store comes with the following spec...

i7-7700HQ CPU
Windows 10
15.6" FHD IPS AntiGlare 1920x1080 screen
8.0GB DDR4 (2400MHz)
128GB SSD + 1TB HDD (5400 rpm)
Nvidia 1060 MaxQ 3GB GDDR5 GPU
1 x USB Type-C port
2.52 kg weight
Backlit keyboard
One year warranty

At a penny shy of a grand, this machine isn't cheap (or even a deal!) but it does tick a lot of the boxes that some gamers look for (i7 not i5, a definite IPS screen, fast RAM, a 1060 GPU, Type C).

It's an extra £100 for the 6GB version of the GPU and an extra £100 for a 256GB SSD (in place of the standard 128GB one) so the base version is where the value lies.

Here's a decent review of the Lenovo Y520 (with the lesser 1050 Ti GPU) which praised it for it's relative quietness and good thermal management...

For those concerned that this laptop comes with the newer, less capable Max Q version of the 1060 GPU, here's a good article on how the old and new versions compare...

notebookcheck.net/Nvi…tml

Hopefully someone will find this of interest...

Edit: Use the discount code LEN4600 to get this price (thanks to Dokko for this)

What lets it down for me is the 8gb RAM - on the higher spec (6gb 1060 model) for another £100 you can get all of the above, with 16gb RAM and a faster hard drive from a HP omen (they're also 17.3 inch which I prefer, though I read that you wanted to post a 15 inch laptop for people)

Where can I find the OMEN you mention? I need some kind of sign!

Not sure if this works or not but apparently you can get 4% off using the discount code LEN4600, taking the price to £959.99.

That's not bad when you see that Currys want £949.99 for the i5 / 1050 Ti version of the Y520 (see link)...

For anyone interested in the difference between the 3GB and 6GB versions of the Nvidia 1060, it seems like for 1080p, there isn't a massive difference for most games but specific games (Hitman for example) do benefit from the extra RAM. It's all explained here...

For those people that like to watch their reviews rather than read them....

If it was £1100 for 6gb gpu and 16gb ram then were talking. No need to be charging £100 for each upgrade. Still good price, heat added

This is a cracking deal. The 3gb memory for the gpu is not an issue, and that i7 is a corker at this price

thanks for the heads up, been looking for a decent laptop that doesn't have the usual tacky "gamer" design for a while. get 10% off through work too so £899 for me. Now to look at it for a few hours with my finger hovering over the buy button.

worth getting the 6gb graphics if I can get it for £989?
Joe90_guy to didsburydan

Personally I'd say no. I'd spend the £100 on games instead!

Is that even debatable? Haha
