Hello,
To whoever is reading this i need with how to upgrade my laptop. I bought this laptop Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15.6" Touch-screen Laptop Notebook i3 8GB 256GB SSD Blue 81WR000FUS. I am hoping if someone might know of a way to upgrade this so that i can run decent games, and hopefully watch videos without overloading my CPU. I already upgraded my ram to a 20GB in total, and i am planning to upgrade the SSD to a 512 or more. I will take any ideas on how to make this better.
Thank you.

There isn't much you can do for this realistically, laptops aren't really that easily upgradable outside the RAM on some laptops and hard drives. Simply, if you want portability and gaming, look for a laptop made for gaming with a good processor and video card.

What would you say be a good laptop for gaming and watching vods would a i5 be ok to where i cam not getting lags, or should be safe and go for a i7?

Greetings, what is the budget range you would be looking at?
-
no range at the moment, but i asking for which is better for what i am looking for a i5 or i7?
-
i7 is going to be better than i5 unless they are a couple or more generations apart.
If you're comparing the same generation processor, then an i7.
Gaming more relies on the GPU, so any higher-end i5 or i7 paired with a video card is the best thing to look for.
