Go with Legion 5 instead. Just a few more bucks from your 3.5K budget and you get a model that's way better than the IdeadPad Gaming 3
The heatsinks used inside Legion 5 is 10 times better than the heatsink used in IdeadPad Gaming

If you're using Master Card credit card, you can get even more discount as per the screenshot below

After 1 year the laptop kaput, padan muka
External cooling is not gonna help. The heatsink in IdeaPad Gaming is weak
Lantak ko la, nak beli jugak that model, up to you
Here I show the heatsink differences between the 2

Also no. I have all 3 accounts, normal, student & business accounts
The business accounts just revise the original price to be higher and after you use the discount code, it will be the same as a normal account. Same thing with student account as well

When FRONTLINER & GIVINGUP discount code was still active, they give the biggest discount
Sadly, neither of them is available for use nowadays
