The ThinkCentre X is finally heading to the US with up to 256GB RAM, dual RTX 5060 Ti GPUs, and a price tag that rivals a used car.

The company is preparing to launch its new ThinkCentre X workstation desktop in the US after making it available in several international markets. Built for AI workloads, professional content creation, and demanding enterprise applications, the desktop can be configured with up to 256GB of DDR5 memory, Intel's latest Core Ultra 9 processor, and support for dual GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPUs.

A metallic Hall effect keyboard and a 59g mouse are Lenovo’s latest upgrades for snazzy gaming setups
The Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Y7MG mouse bring 8K polling to both sides of your gaming setup
Computer, Computer Hardware, Computer Keyboard

Magnetic gaming keyboards and lightweight mice are hardly unusual anymore, but Lenovo is trying to push both ideas a little further with its latest Legion peripherals. The new lineup includes the Legion R7 RT75 keyboard and Legion Y7MG mouse, and both support an 8,000Hz polling rate for players who want every input delivered to their PC as quickly as possible.

Of course, Lenovo has styled these peripherals to be as bold and eye-catching as possible without getting in the way of practicality. The keyboard has a hefty metallic design with translucent keycaps and RGB lighting. Compared to that, the mouse is more tame and traditional in design, but it also has an RGB strip that appears to belong on an alien spaceship. (via NotebookCheck)

From a flexible touchscreen Chromebook to the least expensive way into macOS, these six laptops balance price and performance well. I'd hand any one of them to a student heading back to campus this fall, depending on what they need and what their priorities are.
