A Lenovo Legion 5 laptop claimed to have 64GB of RAM was sent to Best Buy for a warranty repair and returned with only 32GB. A repair ticket allegedly states the unit “only accepts 32GB RAM,” and a 32GB stick was removed, prompting questions about mislabeling, miscommunication, or potential theft. The seller disputes the RAM configuration and the buyer plans to escalate the issue in person.
Reddit user alleges Best Buy repaired a Lenovo Legion 5 by removing the second 32GB RAM module, cutting total memory from 64GB to 32GB; the shop allegedly documented that the laptop only supports up to 32GB and that the removed RAM was returned with the device (worth over $600). The owner says the laptop was listed/sold with 64GB and hadn’t been modified by them. The case has sparked discussions about escalation with Best Buy, with rumors about the “Upgraded” listing and potential third-party installation. The laptop runs an i9-14900HX, RTX 5070, 2TB SSD, and Windows 11 Pro.
A Lenovo Legion 5 purchased from Best Buy with 64 GB of RAM was returned from warranty service with only 32 GB installed. Lenovo’s specs show a 32 GB maximum, though the model has two memory slots, and the 64 GB configuration appears to have come from a third‑party seller (PC Heaven). Geek Squad repair notes reportedly removed a 32 GB module to address instability, prompting questions about how the higher memory configuration was offered and who is responsible for the resulting mismatch; no public comments from Best Buy, Lenovo, or PC Heaven are noted.
Lenovo's Legion 5 gaming laptop, featuring a 15.1-inch OLED display, RTX 5060 GPU, and AMD Ryzen 7 260 processor, is available for $1,050, offering excellent value for an entry-level gaming machine, especially with its user-replaceable RAM and storage. Other deals include a discounted Fire TV Stick 4K Plus, Ninja Gaiden Master Collection, and a 4K Blu-ray of The Dark Crystal.
