    Lenovo gaming desktop (rtx 3050/12th gen i5)

    Pros: This is a quality built desktop. Upon taking the side panel off I noticed there was actual forethought in the placement of various components, there was good internal cable management, and adding additional HDDs was a breeze. As far as performance goes it has ran without issue for weeks at nearly a 24×7 workload processing camera footage and other home automation data. The GPU certainly helps in this regard as does Intel quick sync provided by the 12th gen i5. Cons: I immediately noticed the motherboard only has 2 memory module slots. Would have liked to see all 4 there. I can always upgrade the existing RAM but I'll always be limited to just two slots, bummer. The OS comes with tons of bloatware. Not a deal breaker but I did perform a reformat to bring the system back to a clean image void of any extra programs that tend to linger via scheduled tasks and registry keys.

    Died after 10 months. While it worked it was okay, but got rather warm even playing older games from 2016.
