How will this computer perform with high end games null

It will not run high end games, and the PSU is not upgradeable (the psu and motherboard use a proprietary 10 pin ATX connector, and the psu is therefore not upgradeable - which severely limits your graphics card options). The included GT 730 is not going to run most 2015 or 2016 games. Because of the psu issue, this is not a good machine to buy if your intention is to turn it into a gaming machine.

You won't be able to run new games on this unless you upgrade the gpu to the gtx 750 ti sc. Figured this out the hard way. Lenovo is one of the worst for upgrading purposes because you cannot replace the motherboard, because it is attached firmly to the case therefore you cannot replace the psu and your options for new gpu's are very very limited. But I'll be honest not a bad computer, just make sure you can get a gtx 750 ti if you want to game somewhat proficiently.

It has poor performance. Its literally about the same as a HD Graphics 520, just dedicated. Buy a RX 460 card for $120, you wont be disappointed.

My father bought one of these computers to replace a custom gaming machine I built for him. The processor is a lot faster but the GeForce 730 is pathetic. The new "Doom" at 720p, low settings is a slide show -- maybe 5 fps at best with the GeForce 730 installed. I bought him a sapphire RX 460 2gb non overclock (the one without an additional power connector) Updated his bios and installed the card. Doom now plays 1080p on high with vulkan enabled in settings at 50fps. MechWarrior online 1080p on medium plays perfect (didn't try high, might be fine too) It can be a decent gaming machine with an RX 460 but don't expect to run the newest games on ultra. Video card was "Sapphire RX 460 100409-2GOCL 2GB"

That depends on the specific game. We recommend you contact the game software publisher for the minimum/recommended requirements to run their game then compare those requirements to the configuration of this system.
