Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the excellent performance and great value of the Legion Tower 5 AMD Gaming Desktop, praising its powerful GPU and effective cooling system. However, some users point out that the RAM could be upgraded and that the power supply might be underpowered for demanding games. A few also noted limitations with the BIOS.

    I got this for 1299 on sale whitch is a good deal. With a 4070 and 7 7700x and a 500w i think that's priced right. It will push most games with ultra settimgs and dlss on they all feel smooth however it needs a bigger psu, 500 is cutting it really close and id lile to see a 4070 ti. At the sale price of 1500 it should have a better gpu and psu. Still solid at 1299 tho. Oh yeah and the bios is crazy restricted

    Pretty good for 1300. Needs a bigger PSU, 2tb SSD and 32g of RAM but I'd Wait for a sale for this one. 2k isn't worth it.

    Pretty good. Although there is no reason to go for a 4070 currently, as building a 4070s and 4070ti or even 4070tiS has more value/cost, this discounted gaming pc still is a great choice for comparable effectiveness in its price range (definitely a whole lot cheaper than the mentioned builds at this discount). M.2 storage upgrade is very easy, as it is located right next to the GPU and you don't have to take anything out, just slide it in and secure it with provided screw on the m.2 slot on the mb. For performance, I was able to run everything maxed out on 4k with ray tracing at maximum on Elden Ring (this game is my benchmark app) @ 60fps (Game is capped at 60fps, meaning providing max FPS) consistently on any environment. For gamers who game only at 1080P like me, it will run everything butter smooth (I prefer higher refresh rate @ 240hz on Esports games like Dota2). Also, compared to gaming Laptops, the sound quality (from using same headset, and it's something I did not expect. For people who are considering laptop vs desktop) was noticeably better and clearer. Aesthetics wise, you can customize all RGBs to suit your taste (mine is static blue/green and looks awesome with the black case). Overall very satisfied with the product.

    It is a really good entry PC for the price. I bought it on sale for $1299.99, so I got really good value out of it. Performance is awesome and looks slick. Cons: Ram speed is at 5200 instead of stated 5600. Also doesn’t mention that if you add two more sticks of same speed, speed will drop to 3600 Mhz. Also the Bios is pretty locked and inflexible so you cannot change much stuff there. If you need higher ram then jst get a 2x16 sticks. Another thing I didn’t like is the command center for Lenovo sucks, can’t see the gpu or cpu temps fan temps and speed, I switched from Alienware and trust me the Alienware command center was dope when it came to monitoring benchmarks.The last thing I didn’t like is the PSU jst being 500W. It is cutting it pretty close. 600 or 650 would be more comfortable for a 4070 in it I think. Bt if u don’t care much about the BIOS being inflexible and command center being okay. Then it is a great buy. But I wouldn’t recommend buying it for full price. Performance has not let me down and the case is well designed fir heating and it is easy to open.

    its what you pay for, but change the HDD for games

    runs very smoothly on SSD drive for max settings on any game that I own for 1080P, you can still play any game you want max settings on the HDD, but you will get stutters and lag issues every time when you start any game, or whenever a new frame is loaded. I was going to give it 3 or 4 stars due this issue, but the discounted price of 1299 that I got it for, make it possible to upgrade the storage for better gaming experience. so I got a 2Tb SSD for 139 (on sale), so I would say it did not spend more than 1600 to have the 4070 experience that I could get somewhere else for more than $2300 based on the specs... So i would say the discounted price for sure played a big role with this purchase, and im happy with it.

    Found this on sale and worth getting faster Ryzen 7 processor and 4070 video card is much better than Ryzen 5 with 4060 video card. The 4070 is 56% faster than my upgraded older Lenovo desktop with 6650xt video card. My only complaint is that the BIOS has embedded Win 11 product key and will not activate Windows 10 Pro so l had to go back to Win 11 Home which s.u.c.k.s. Because l couldn't activate Win 10, l dropped one star rating.

    Ive had it for 1 month. So far it works great, super fast, nvidia running war thunder like its nothing. Ram and ssd at 100 mph. Way better than my G5 laptop. I hope this lasts, first time ever using AMD or lenovo. But cooling is good, looks promising

    its actually a pretty good pc, the only thing i would change is the case to something a bit bigger but other then that i really like this pc. i throw any game at it so far like gta 5 and vrchat, roblox it handles good but do more research on it because it took me a bit to see how the hard drive to work but other then that good gaming pc but it should be priced lower in my opinion but then again you are buying for what your paying for.

    Great product. I run newer games such as Battlefield on max settings and the computer sounds like it’s barely working hard to keep up. Minimal amounts of preloaded software as well. I got this on sale around $1200 and is well worth that price.

    Jaw dropping desktop for $1299. Make sure you have a 4k monitor. Runs red dead 2 and cyberpunk at 4k 60fps, even without a 32gb ram upgrade.
