QuestionI just purchased the Lenovo - IdeaCentre 5i Desktop - Intel Core i5. There's no sound. Do I need to connect speakers to this?
Asked 5 years ago by Wendy.
- Answer Yes, there is a single 3.5mm stereo audio out port on the back. This PC does not come with built in speakers - you must supply your own. Or you can connect via bluetooth. There is also a single 3.5mm audio out on the front panel for headset/mic combo or for just a headset or speakers.

QuestionHi so I bought this pc and some games aren’t supported. Can this pc be used for gaming and if yes, can it be customizable
Asked 5 years ago by Felipe.
- Answer This is not a gaming pc. You need to look at the requirements of each game to determine if it will play on your pc. One of the determining factors for gaming is the video card as gaming requires a good video card. Your pc only has a built in video card.

QuestionThank you for your help. As a follow-up, does the unit have the cable to connect to the motherboard? Unfortunately, when I bought this, my second Lenovo, Best Buy told me all the cables were included but.... I really want to install a SanDisk for C:

- Answer If this is a laptop and you just want to replace your hard drive with an ssd hard drive they use the same connection. If you know how, you can just ghost the old hard drive to the new one and then swap them out. that way you won't have to install everything all over again.

QuestionCan This PC run games like fortnite or minecraft?
Asked 4 years ago by Adan.
- Answer That really will depend on the requirements and compatibility of the specific games you want to play. We recommend you check with the game's software publisher's web site for their compatibility with Windows 10 Home 64-bit operating system and the minimum/recommended hardware requirements (Is a Graphics card required, the processor speed and the minimum required system RAM and the minimum available hard drive space) to run their program, then compare those requirements to this system's configuration.

QuestionHow do I remove the front cover on the ideacentre 5i
Asked 4 years ago by Ritchkp.
- Answer Dear Ritchkp; There are two screws on the back of the tower. Remove them. Slide the side of the panel off. At this point, you will see three latches that hold the front cover to the Lenovo IdeaCentre 5i. Unlatch them slowly; you don't want to catch the CD player. The front cover should come off in ONE piece. That's how you do it. Good luck, Consultant Brian
