Why can't it have the word "gaming" in the name? Most gaming laptops usually say "gaming" to try and attract buyers.

post says "gaming" not "laptop" in the name, probably wants something that flies under the radar for work or school

Sorry typo, but finding performance laptops is difficult without them specifying "gaming" in the name. I'd rather cut the budget if its for pure productivity instead of buying an expensive laptop.

Loool are you trying to trick your parents? Finding a non-gaming laptop with a GPU is difficult for your budget.

Costco have a decent Lenovo LOQ on offer currently. Looks a bit less gamey than the legion?

Acer nitro is more than acceptable. 5060 minimum with 8gb would be sufficient, wouldn't run the games on the highest of spec.

Gaming laptops are great. If you want something that performs just as well that looks just like a normal laptop that would cost wayy above your budget since those are the 'creator' or 'business workstations'.

Get refurbished as well if you want good pricing.
