This computer (Lenovo - IdeaCentre 31OS Desktop) is serving me well since I bought it. It is an excellent replacement for my Lenovo desktop that stopped working and had to be replaced.

Great Computer!

I have never owned a Lenovo but was told Lenovo IdeaCentres we’re a good computer so I ordered this desktop for my 14 year old to use for school work (mostly online work) and it was really easy to set up and we had it up and running within a few minutes. It runs fast and is nice and compact on the desk. I will probably upgrade the memory in the future but for now it works perfect for what we need! I am very happy with it!

Good basic computer
Steve Posted
Needed to replace a old tower computer to work at home. This computer filled the bill. It has plenty of storage, memory and speed for remote working from home. The setup is fast and easy, had this machine running in time. While there are machines with more speed and power, this one can’t be beat for someone who needs a good basic computer on a budget. The only thing that it lacks is enough USB connections on the back of it, I had to use one from the front of the computer to hook everything up.

In the window that opens, click on "Health and Support". In the expanded menu, select "Hardware Scan" In the window that opens, select "Run Quick Tests". This will scan your entire system for errors.

Good Product
Olo2029 Posted
I increased the RAM with additional 4gb and It's perfect for my intended use -- home office. It's small, light, portable and durable, and < $280 price is reasonable. However, even though the overall product deserve excellent but I can't give that rating yet because it is too early since I purchased it less than two months ago, and I don't use daily.

2nd try in 2 weeks
bobbyb Posted
I am very happy w/ tower but I had to return the first one right away because it had a bad video card and Geek Squad wouldn't replace the card. I had to spend hours to set it up twice and reload my programs. Other than that this one seems to be great. Very fast, huge 1TB memory and a great low price. More disappointed that they wouldn't fix it.

Excellent value for one with minimal needs
Zman Posted
I needed to replace my nonagenarian mother's desktop PC with its XP operating system that was glacially slow. And, I needed to keep everything simple and familiar. Her only significant requirements were for using email and Internet surfing. I was able to easily set up this very inexpensive computer and show her how to operate it. We were able to use her old HD monitor, too. I'm sure this small PC is suitable for many other applications, so I can give it a good recommendation.

Great if you know what to expect
NilakV Posted
I have bought IdeaCentre 310S about a month ago, and I am really happy with it. I bought it for internet (browsing, social media, watching YouTube), reading books (PDF and Kindle), watching movies, and writing documents. I would point at two good features for IdeaCentre 310S: First, the price is very good. Second, if you know what to expect from the hardware - it works great. Of course IdeaCentre is a bit slow, especially after the start (the processor is working on 100% for about a minute), but after that it works great depending on applications and tasks you initiate. If you consider using it for any resource-heavy tasks as editing photography in Photoshop or something like this - you'd better buy more RAM, or downgrade the system to Windows 7 (you have to have a Windows 7 though).

Good PC - especially with upgrades
Glen Posted
This is a good machine. I really recommend that you do two things: 1) buy an ethernet cable - the wifi receiver is weak and cuts out often and 2) buy and install additional RAM. It's not hard. I recommend Crucial 8GB UDIMM DDR4 2666, which is compatible (not all RAM is created equal!!!)

Good little desktop for everyday things
AlanS Posted
It's a decent little desktop for everyday things. It could have used 4 more GB of ram to really work. I'm pushing the limits of everyday use by running GNS3 networking labs (Cisco Routers under Dynamips) and Vmware guests in it. It does have the AMD-V for virtualization. It kind of slows down when the 4 GB memory gets close to maxing out. Firefox web browser likes to eat a lot of memory especially on complex web sites like Facebook. It's hanging in there though. I heard it doesn't have cooling fans ... but I haven't seen temperature warnings like I saw on my old machine. Even while watching HD video content. It's playing movies and videos just fine. I like that it had HDMI for audio and video right out of the box. I never used Bluetooth and I don't put it on WiFi but it has both of those as well. I've had it about a month now ... and I'm keeping it. :-) :-)

better than average and good for the price
Buzz Posted
Unit was picked up in good shape, but developed some WIFI connectivity issues a few days later, Talked to Lenovo tech service person (he was great) and he gave me three options after about a half hour on the phone with him. I got off the phone tried option one and all has been fine since. overall the unit is a good value for the money and a idea unit for a retired guy just doing surveys and web browsing.

With only 4 GB Memory it is very slow
Nick Posted
I really like the computer and how slim it is. I added 12 GB memory for a total of 16 GB and changed the hard drive to 1 TB Solid State Drive (Samsung V-Nand SSD) This made a world of difference. So for the price of the computer and an extra $120.00 for the upgraded SSD and Memory it is well worth it.

Perfect machine
BStew62 Posted
The IdeaCentre is perfect for my family's purposes...basic internet research, office stuff (finance, documents, presentations, etc.), and some small time games. We do not stream movies or do any online gaming so there was no need for advanced graphics or such...but, from what I've seen doing the basic stuff, this machine could keep up if needed. The size is right and I got our computer off the floor and on the shelf minimizing wiring and messy set-up.

Nice computer
Mike Posted
This is a nice computer works okay for most of my needs. Windows 10 seems a little doggy at times and the subscription to office 10 is somewhat aggravating at times, though it could easily be me. Hate the fact I have to tell it to save to the computer instead of the cloud. I do like the fact that if it saves to the cloud I can access documents on my phone. The one problem I have run into was when I tried upgrading the ram to 16 gigs, the computer would not startup, just sat there. Removed one memory stick and the computer started right up. Changed it out with the removed stick, computer started right up. My conclusion is either there is a glitch in the firm ware or it is not up-gradable to 16 gigs like they say. The other issue is the constant notifications from Lenovo, almost daily.

The Lenovo IdeaCentre 310s Desktop, model number 90G90068U is compatible with a maximum of 8GB DDR4-2666MHz RAM. There are two RAM memory slots within this configuration. You can add a second stick of 4GB DDR4-2666MHz. If you are getting daily notifications from Lenovo, your 30-day trial subscription to McAfee virus protection software is most likely expired and your computer is no longer protected from virus. You do not need to use McAfee, you can uninstall McAfee and install any 3rd. party virus protection software you choose. Here is a link to information on uninstalling McAfee from Windows 10: https://service.mcafee.com/webcenter/portal/oracle/webcenter/page/scopedMD/s55728c97_466d_4ddb_952d_05484ea932c6/Page29.jspx?wc.contextURL=%2Fspaces%2Fcp&articleId=TS101331&_afrLoop=1355161020222084&leftWidth=0%25&showFooter=false&showHeader=false&rightWidth=0%25¢erWidth=100%25#!%40%40%3FshowFooter%3Dfalse%26_afrLoop%3D1355161020222084%26articleId%3DTS101331%26leftWidth%3D0%2525%26showHeader%3Dfalse%26wc.contextURL%3D%252Fspaces%252Fcp%26rightWidth%3D0%2525%26centerWidth%3D100%2525%26_adf.ctrl-state%3Dx25crirbo_9
