During an event in Berlin, Lenovo unveiled the Lenovo Legion 9i (16”), a high-end gaming laptop that boasts several top-of-the-line features. The flagship of the Legion lineup, the 9i is touted as the world’s first 16-inch gaming laptop to feature a self-contained liquid-cooling system, catering to the needs of gamers and content creators who demand robust graphic capabilities in a portable package.

Designed for Compact Mobile Gaming Performance

The Legion 9i hardware is impressive, sporting a 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13980HX processor, with options to include an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU and up to 64GB of Overclocked 5600Mhz Dual Channel DDR5 RAM or 32GB of Overclocked 6400Mhz DDR5 Dual Channel RAM. Storage options include up to 2TB of PCIe SSD (Gen 4) .

Innovative Cooling Technology

A standout feature is the Legion Coldfront integrated liquid-cooling system, a world-first on a 16-inch gaming laptop. This system, designed in collaboration with Cooler Master, manages temperatures by running over all hot components, including the GPU VRAM. Additionally, the laptop incorporates an AI-tuned, triple-fan air-cooling mechanism featuring an impressive 6,333 individual intake vents, ensuring optimal performance even during tasks requiring a heavy workload.

Sleek Design and Display

The laptop’s aesthetics and durability are taken to the next level with an innovative A-cover made from forged carbon chips. Not only does this material contribute to weight reduction, but the forging process also guarantees a unique pattern on each Lenovo Legion 9i computer, adding a touch of individuality to the design.

The Lenovo PureSight 3.2K Mini-LED 16:10 display features a 165Hz variable refresh rate and a high screen-to-body ratio.

Connectivity and Battery

Connectivity options are comprehensive, with a 99.99Whr battery that can be charged via the included 330W Slim Adapter or the 140W Type-C Power adapter. The MediaTek Filogic 380 Wi-Fi card offers Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 capabilities with wireless speeds up to 6.5Gbps.

Software and Audio Enhancements

Furthermore, the Lenovo Legion 9i comes preloaded with Windows 11 and a 3-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, providing access to an array of quality games. To round out the package, the laptop incorporates Nahimic by SteelSeries immersive 3D audio technology, enhancing the overall gaming and entertainment experience.

New Lenovo laptop bags

Since Legion is now an important brand for Lenovo, the company is introducing new “Legion” laptop bags with two distinct styles. Each is clearly spacious enough to carry this specific computer, and they might even fit 17″ laptops such as the Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 3, but we haven’t tested that yet. The product names are Lenovo Legion 16” Gaming Backpack GB700 and GB400 (GB = “Gaming Bag”), and the GB700 has an internal volume of 20L with many internal customizations, depending on how you want to organize your belongings.

Google announced today that all Chromebook owners can claim three free months of GeForce Now. Most Chromebook users will get a (usually $10 per month) GeForce Now Priority subscription, while owners of Cloud Gaming Chromebooks will receive access to the Ultimate tier (typically $20 per month). The company is tying the promotion to Baldur’s Gate 3 launch on Nvidia’s cloud gaming service.

Standard Chromebook owners can claim three months of GeForce Now Priority, which uses a “premium rig” in the cloud that maxes out at 1080p / 60 FPS streaming and six-hour gaming sessions. Meanwhile, folks who bought a Cloud Gaming Chromebook can claim three months of GeForce Now Ultimate, which boosts performance to an RTX 4080, 4K resolution, 120 FPS and eight-hour sessions.

GeForce Now, launched publicly in 2020 after nearly five years in beta, offers instant access to a computer with much greater horsepower than a Chromebook — without worrying about updates, patches or graphic settings. But, of course, you’ll need at least a decently fast and low-latency internet connection to stream the games from Nvidia’s servers.

Building and accessing your library on Nvidia’s service can be a bit clunky compared to rivals like Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and the now-defunct Stadia: You’ll need to link your Steam, Epic Games Store, the Microsoft Store or Ubisoft Connect store accounts (among others) to see which of your purchased titles are eligible. Then, you can stream the games you already own and find out which storefronts are supported for those you still want to add. Nvidia’s GeForce Now library webpage is a solid place to start: It simplifies the process by letting you search the service’s catalog of over 1,500 support titles.

Google hasn’t announced how long the promotion will be available, except to say it’s for a limited time only. Chromebook owners can claim the offer on this “special perks” webpage.
