Best Buy's 12GB RTX 5070 Lenovo Legion 7a listing hides its actual price, but even then these GPUs are going to struggle to stay relevant

Lenovo is one of the first brands to adopt the new 12GB RTX 5070 mobile chip, and its debut rig hit Best Buy's shelves last week... alongside a pretty shocking price tag. Listed at a $3,374.99 MSRP, this machine is more expensive not just than an RTX 5070 Ti rig, but a few RTX 5080 machines when on sale as well.

Of course, this isn't the price we'll actually be paying for the Lenovo Legion 7a refresh. Like many of the best gaming laptops, this is a rig launching at an absurd MSRP to give its brand space to make discounts look flashier. And we're already there. Hiding in the the listing for the black model is a white version, with a $575 "saving" already applied.
