3 DAYS with Lenovo Legion Tower 5i Gaming Desktop Review!

Make sure you put in the activation code in the box when you buy this it’s computer I bought it and didn’t open it and it took a week to get a new code for the computer

First of all, 500 W psu being shoved in with 4070?
Buy the PC if you want a bomb.
I do not reccomend, the PSU is too weak to even provide necessary wattage, gpu alone can eat most of it.

this video realy helpt me! thanks

Hi i got a legion t5 with a ryzen 7 5700g with a rx 6800XT gpu the cooler is stock should i upgrade to Liquidcooler?

Does the 2 others m.2 slots are accessible easily or we need to remove de gpu ?

Thank u G

Just wondering if you can upgrade the gpu in the future?

Hey uh I have a computer and a moniter so when I get this gaming pc will the legion tower 5i have my progress from my computer too show in my moniter ?

Just a question cause I don’t really know much about pcs. But I just bought Lenovo Legion Tower 5. I was wondering if I could change the case and storage??

Can someone verify, is the RAM DDR5 and not DDR4?

would this be able to run gta 5? im not very good with specs on pcs and stuff

Got this for $350 lol 😝 💪🏻

Can anyone link a video how to add the additional fans on top? Does the current model come with a splitter for power or can they be connected directly to the motherboard?

What model is this?

I've always been a custom rig guy, but I've got a corporate discount off of all Lenovo rigs so I was super curious as to whether the legions are worth their price tags. Ty for the review. It may be the opinion that sways me towards giving it a shot.

Thank you for the review. A question: Are the fans noisy? At full load, have you by chance measured the decibels?

It's one of the best prebuilt systems you could get and it's also got good temps and the connectors are not proprietary so you can change the case or whatever component you want. HOWEVER,Lenovo systems will LOCK the CPU to their boards only so if you want to upgrade the CPU later,the old one can't be sold because it will only work in your specific motherboard only,and also it will lock your new cpu to the board again too so if the board will die you won't be able to use the processor on any other motherboard either

Can you upgrade the Memory?

You didn't mention negatives at all? The PSU is a cheap off-brand 500w. The 4070 has a minimum recommended PSU of 650w. The ram is cheap and runs at 4400MHz, which isnt the greatest. These are the weak points of this PC. The bios locks the ram to run no faster than 4400MHZ. Your review seems biased in favour of lenovo. Overall its a good computer, but it has negatives too.

Hi nice review. I want to know how loud do the fans get in normal browsing the internet or MS Office use? And how about when using video editor like Davinci resolve or photos with lightroom?
Then also how loud is it when gamimg some AAA games on Steam?

I'm thinking of getting this Legion T5 to replace my old but still great Alienware R7.
I like Lenovo I have a Legion Y540 Laptop with RTX 2060.

3,5" or 2,5 hdd?

How would u turn on the lights for the pc?

Is pre-built Legion Tower 5i Gen 8 (Intel) with RTX 3050 wifi ready? I'm moving and the place only have wifi and no ethernet port in the house so I'm wondering if I still need to get a new home wifi before buying the Lenovo desktop. TIA

how good is the cpu cooler?

I got one for 1200

I have literally the exact same machine same specs.. but when I load any game, it stutters, for few seconds, the it plays normally, this happens on every restart... I mean is there something that I'm missing??

that is one sexy tower for sure; makes me want to skip building it myself

I'm getting it on my bday or sooner!

so you did not power on your system on day 1 to check whether it was working :hmm:

500W PSU for rtx 4070???? Nope these is no go....

The generic RAM just kills the overall look inside.

I bought the I7 13700f rtx 4070 version for $800 in a pawnshop, got really lucky 😂

500w isn't nearly enough to run the rtx 4070!! wth? Why would they do that? UPDRADE fast!!

Which ram should I buy to upgrade it to 32gb?

What’s the motherboard?

Nice review. You seem like an awesome guy. Thanks dude!

Say im having issues turning on the rgb of my legion gpu. Did the latest bios update really ruin the vantage lighting options? Im looking for help as no one talks about it.

I just got this for 1500 taxes included
Was on sale for 1399

I was only able to find 2 sata cables for Sata drives, the other sata slots are in use for some sort of braided cable, which i am not sure where i goes but it doesn't seem usable for sata drives, any idea?

Now can u do a video on what mothsrboard to use to place this had mime for 2 years now and want one with more ports if possible 😅 for my speakers/headphones/microphone and that will fit in the case since ik the case can only do specific motherboards but cant find which ones

just got rtx 4060 i5 14400f version if i upgrade to 4070 super can i still overclock it?

Can you hograde the ram for this pc?

The ram memory are ddr4 or 5?

What would you recommend as the 2 additional fans on the top?

Almost 1k for a 3050 pc for gaming is not a good price 😂😂. Build your own, you’ll always get a much better pc for your money. Dint listen to this guy you could build this to a lot cheaper, take what he said with a grain of salt cut in half.

my graphics card does not light up, I mean the geforce inscription, how do I turn it on

Did the panel have a removable film to take off during the unboxing? Thanks

Do you know if you are able to upgrade the graphics card from a 4070 to a 4070 super?

Have you seen the bios of this thing feels like I’m back in windows 7 and that’s still being nice I tried to turn on xmp mode in bios to realise that all I can do is check my system and do a diagnostic that’s it unless I’m doing something please help me
