Lenovo LOQ 17IRX10
A 17.3-inch gaming laptop with a 20-core Core i7-14700HX, a GeForce RTX 5070 at 115W and a 165Hz Full HD IPS panel.
The LOQ 17IRX10 is the largest machine in Lenovo's LOQ range, and this is its strongest configuration. A 20-core Core i7-14700HX with 28 threads sits alongside a GeForce RTX 5070 running at 115W with 8GB of GDDR7, 24GB of dual-channel DDR5-4800 and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive.
The screen is the reason to choose 17 inches. It is a 17.3-inch Full HD IPS panel at 165Hz with 300 nits, an anti-glare finish and full sRGB coverage, running NVIDIA G-SYNC and Advanced Optimus. More surface area means more of a game world, a timeline or a spreadsheet visible without leaning in.
Ideal For
A 17.3-inch 165Hz panel, 28 processor threads and a 245W adapter give the reach of a tower without the tower, provided it lives on one desk.
Full sRGB coverage on the panel, 798 AI TOPS from the RTX 5070 and 24GB of dual-channel memory cover editing timelines, rendering and accelerated export work.
The 17.3-inch 165Hz IPS panel with G-SYNC gives the RTX 5070 a target worth chasing, and the larger screen makes fine detail easier to pick out.
Key Features
Eight performance cores and twelve efficient cores give 28 threads, with performance clocks to 5.5GHz and 33MB of Intel Smart Cache.
Eight gigabytes of GDDR7 with a 2347MHz boost clock and 798 AI TOPS, running DLSS 4 and DirectX 12 Ultimate at 115W.
Full HD IPS at 300 nits with an anti-glare finish and 100% sRGB coverage, supported by G-SYNC and Advanced Optimus switching.
Two 12GB DDR5-4800 modules fill both slots from the start, so memory bandwidth is doubled compared with a single-stick machine.
Four USB-A ports, USB-C with Power Delivery and DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1 to 8K, a headphone jack, Ethernet and slim-tip power.
A six-row layout with a numeric keypad, Copilot key and 1.5mm of key travel, lit across 24 individually addressable zones.
What 28 threads bring to the desk
The Core i7-14700HX is the largest processor Lenovo offers on this platform: eight performance cores, twelve efficient cores, 28 threads and 33MB of cache, with performance clocks reaching 5.5GHz. Games seldom saturate that, but the work around them does. Video exports, compilation, virtual machines and streaming encoders all scale with thread count, and the efficient cores absorb background tasks so foreground work keeps the performance cores to itself.
A larger screen, properly specified
Seventeen-inch laptops sometimes get a lesser panel than their smaller siblings. Not here. The 17.3-inch display is IPS at 300 nits, anti-glare, covers 100% of sRGB and runs at 165Hz, a step above the 144Hz used on the 15-inch model. G-SYNC keeps the refresh rate matched to the graphics card and Advanced Optimus switches between integrated and discrete graphics without a restart. The practical gain is simply room: more of a map, a timeline or a document at once.
Cooling, power and where it lives
A 115W graphics card and a 20-core processor need space, and this chassis provides it at 398.4 x 276.2mm and between 22.95 and 25.25mm thick, weighing around 2.9kg. Power comes from a 245W slim-tip adapter, and Rapid Charge Pro brings the 60Wh battery to half in 30 minutes. Realistically this is a machine that lives on a desk and travels occasionally, with four USB-A ports and Gigabit Ethernet making it easy to leave peripherals permanently attached.
How It Compares
| What You Need | Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| 4K video editing | 28 threads, 798 AI TOPS | Encoding and accelerated effects have both processor and graphics headroom for long export queues |
| High refresh gaming | 165Hz IPS with G-SYNC | The panel outruns the usual 144Hz, and synchronisation keeps fast movement clean rather than torn |
| Large project files | 24GB dual-channel DDR5 | Both slots filled from the start means twice the memory path of a single-module configuration |
| Peripherals at a desk | Four USB-A plus USB-C | Mouse, headset, controller and external drive can all stay connected without a hub in the way |
| Competitive online play | Gigabit Ethernet | Wired networking removes the latency variation a busy household wireless connection introduces during matches |
| Big-screen working | 17.3-inch display | More of a timeline, map or spreadsheet is visible at once, which reduces scrolling and zooming |

The Verdict
Strengths
- Core i7-14700HX with 20 cores and 28 threads
- RTX 5070 8GB GDDR7 running at 115W
- 17.3-inch 165Hz IPS panel with 100% sRGB
- 24GB DDR5-4800 fitted in dual channel
- 24-zone RGB backlit keyboard with numeric keypad
- Four USB-A ports plus USB-C and Gigabit Ethernet
- 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe with a second M.2 slot
Considerations
- At around 2.9kg with a 245W slim-tip adapter, this is a desk machine and not something to carry regularly.
- Lenovo rates the 60Wh battery at 5.21 hours of video playback, so serious use expects mains power to be connected.
- Both memory slots are already filled with 12GB modules, so any future capacity increase means replacing them rather than adding.
