Pros -
- Extremely quiet!
- Fast!
- Cool looking case with lighting and Legion logo!
- Good sound (Dolby Atmos)!
- The inside fan LED's colors can be customized!
- Gigabit Ethernet!
- Plenty of drive space with both the SSD and HD (possibly... I
don't know what happens when you run out of space on the
SSD. I've never had that happen before on a computer I owned).
- Sufficient RAM for the time being.
- The computer itself can be upgraded.
- Plenty of up to date USB ports.
Cons -
- The mouse and keyboard that came with it were
very poor quality (not only did they feel cheap and look cheap,
but they were very light and could easily break). So I decided to
buy my own gaming keyboard and mouse.
- I can't figure out how to keep my RGB LED's the color I want
them inside the tower (Cyan). Just about every time I shut down
and turn my PC back on, the LED's inside the tower reset to their
default color setting. This also happens to my Logitech Gaming
Keyboard's color setting. It also gets set back to default
whenever the tower fans do. I haven't been able to find solutions
to these problems. My new Logitech keyboard may have
something to do with it.
- This Monday I found out through 3 Logitech employees (2
through Lenovo’s hotline and 1 through an online chat
representative) that the maximum amount of memory or RAM
my PC can have is 16GB. I think that’s too low for a Gaming PC,
especially nowadays. I also couldn't find the maximum RAM my
PC could have online, even through Lenovo's support site,
which was time consuming and hard on me.
- The last thing is that when I get on Facebook Messenger, there's
times where my video will get blurry. It lasts for about a minute
or two then goes away for quite a while. I think it might be my
webcam since I found out it was on streaming mode after I
updated it.
If I could have solved the problem with my LED's, and been able to upgrade the RAM to possibly 32GB, or definitely 64GB of RAM, I would give this PC a lot higher rating, and I would keep it. But these 2 problems were deal breakers for me.

The motherboard is a oem lenvono which is not bad the vrms or the lack of is ok it comes with 2 case fans which u can add one more but that's it. The lack of rgb controls for the case and I want to shut off all the lighting if possible I would, than the max memory is 16gb unless the motherboard supports 16gb sticks than it will support 32 which would be nice.
The 130watt CPU cooler is nice but I dont see any rgb which I'm fine with. It silently works well until it under some load and you notice a rockshipt is about to take off but it keeps thermals well in check.
I only see 1 m2 storage which is only 256gb which is good enough for O.S and I'll use my own ssd 1tb. The power supply is is rated 650watts 80plus gold which is I think 90 to 95% or 585 watts to 590 and it doesnt look pretty the insides so why the rgb lighting? Standard 8gb 2666 sticks is ok I like it does the job. I paired it with a lg 2I 144hz ips monitor and it looks amazing but on 1080p 1660 ti good enough for me.
Pro: fast wifi and bluetooth is really handy, good size for me needs, built in software levono is decent. The hardware is good on paper. The graphics card I think can be upgradable if it fits. The gtx 1660ti is good for 1080 144hz gaming but I got 2k
Cons: no rgb control for the case or no manual to tell let know to shut off the lighting, motherboard is ok but other companies use after market parts for the motherboards. The iO is decent I like but.. the 1660ti that comes with it only has 1 DP I use oculus rift S and I need at least 2 DP it's on my part since I didn't want to spend the extra money for better parts.also there is fan rgb controls for the exit fan I like but I dont use

If you're looking for just a gaming PC to run at 144 fps at high settings this pc will run smoothly and perfectly fine ! I'm using this pc for streaming and gaming and it also runs fine, I have yet to upgrade and I still like the way it runs! It comes with 16 gigs of ram so there's really no point in getting more ram. I have to say for editing videos I'm not certain about how smooth it runs. One thing i might upgrade in the future is the graphics card. There has been times that my game has crashed but the reason for that I believe is because i was running, Stream labs, spotify, youtube, stream labs chat bot, fortnite, and i was also streaming at 720 60 fps. If you don't plan on streaming and having alot of applications in the background running i say there should be no problem either way if you do you should be fine.

A Great Gaming Setup

My Lenovo-Legion PC has been amazing! The boot-up time is.....well there isn't really a boot-up time. The amount of time it takes to display the login screen from the time you press the power button is well I'm pretty sure the few seconds of wait time is my monitor turning on. That the great thing about the operating system being installed on an SSD drive. Keep in mind the SSD drive is only 256GB so if you want any games installed on an SSD you'll need to purchase an additional SSD storage drive (that's what I did). Which was super easy to install. I still need to purchase the correct mounting adaptor. Oh and so far every Oculus Rift S game I've played has performed perfectly. Whenever I run a benchmark for the game auto-configuration, I'm ending up running the game in High Quality or Ultra. I do leave the side panel off just to help with the temp. Not because it got hot or anything but just because keeping components that do get hot during operation) in a small enclosed box just doesn't make much sense to me. Anyways long story short....I would buy this PC again without a second thought and have recommended it to my friends

It’s been a while since I have been 100% satisfied with a purchase of something that has a larger cost. I am now, as every night when I fire this Lenovo Gaming PC up, I am still 100% glad I bought it. I have been building or buying PC’s for over 20 years, and Microsoft Flight Simulator has always been the driving factor of my PC. Now I am older, no time to build, but wanted a PC fast to play the latest MSFS. I was in Best Buy, did not want to buy PC online but in person. BB is close, and when I walked in, the Salesgirl said, this one came in but not on the web yet. I looked at the specs, and said I’ll take it. I have added another 2 drives, and that is it. Works FLAWLESSLY. FAST and GREAT FPS. Anything that could be a shortcoming, such as only 2 mem slots, is not for me as I understood the specs from the beginning. A1 Lenovo Legion, WOW. Last, Best Buy price was pretty much same as Amazon, or other online, but I can pickup here in person.

I've had this computer a year and like everything about it except its lighting features. I covered the bright aqua light on the front to keep it from being a distraction. The clear cover on the tower's left side reveals its interior with a lot of bright aqua lighting. Fortunely, that side faces the wall; so I forget its prominent design. I am not into gaming, but I bought a gaming computer because it has a fast processor. When I create digital paintings, I make fast changes. This computer keeps up with those chances with ease.

Love this PC, very powerful and does its justice! I use this for heavy AAA Gaming such as (Grand theft auto V, Fortnite, forza H4, and six seige) mainly and it has plentiful power to run these and then some, also use this for heavy video editing on Adobe premiere in 4K to edit my fashion content and blogs and everything is buttery smooth. Normally I would build a pc however I needed a PC with a lot of power ASAP, and the only thing I wil probably be upgrading soon is the graphics card to a 2080ti as it is swappable obviously. Great PC

I purchased this PC after having nothing but trouble with a year old CyberPower gaming PC. Very glad I picked a Lenovo as my replacement, as for why: Its fast, expandable, and reliable. I use it for gaming and heavy photo/video editing. It's truly a workhorse and would by another Lenovo in a heartbeat.

RGB Customization is a no go

Computer works great, but I'm incredibly disappointed with the RGB color customization. You can use the buttons on the back to rotate through a limited selection of colors, but once you restart your computer, it's right back to rainbow. There's no software to customize the colors (Lenovo Vantage doesn't have it, I've updated it, and no lighting options whatsoever).

I like the clean cut interior. I think there should have been 2 more slits for memory so that customers could upgrade ram to 32 gigs. Unfortunately now customer has to toss out thev16 gigs and buy two new ram chips. I like the SSD drive but again 256 gigs is only great for operating system of today. What about tomorrow's latest? 1 Tb HDD is included as your extremely small additional drive. They could have easily included for this price a 4TB and still made money. Im a bit disappointed. I had to remove too many programs in the background and benchmarks put it not very high despite having a stabile cpu and mediocre gpu.
