Question Lenovo Legion 5 Pro vs MSI GP66 Leopard 11UG ?

[LyiNkor]

Hello everyone!
I want to change my laptop and I'm hesitating between 2, they have same price 1900 euro:
MSI GP66 Leopard
15,6" QHD 165Hz screen with RTX 3070 graphics, i7 11800H processor, 16 DDR4 GB RAM, 500 GB SSD, 60 Wh.
Lenovo Legion 5 Pro
16" WQHD 165Hz screen with RTX 3070 graphics, Ryzen 7 5800H processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 1 TB SSD, 80Wh.
I need laptop for:
-Programming and a lit bit for CAD. I do a lot of programming every day and sometimes CAD.
-Gaming. I usualy play in competitive game, for me high fps is the main characteristic.
I usually work and play near a power outlet, but I got feedback that the laptop battery is an important parameter too.

Which one should I go for? Inputs are greatly appreciated.

Hey LyiNkor,

Personally, I think the MSI is a solid choise. I personally own a MSI GE75 raider and believe they offer great products. I also believe that the intel core processor works better with the nVidia graphics card than a Ryzen 7 CPU. The sad part is, is that the MSI has a whopping 500gb less SSD Storage than the Lenovo, which is a big deal. Are you planning on having a lot of games stored at once? I foresee (like myself) having to purchase a portable T5 Samsung SSD in the future.
