How long you can wait?  laugh.gif  its pretty hard get decent brand.. even custom like Illegear / Level51 make you wait at least 5-6 weeks. Then at least more choices to choose from.

How bout Legion 5?
Normal usage like that should be fine.
Below miight be a good deal for you. at least can last couple of years before upgrade it again.

Dell Vostro 3681 (VD1001565) VOSTRO3681 /i5-10400 /8GB /512GBSSD /INTEGRATEDGRAPHICS /WIN10Home
