This pc is great pre-built if you just want a starter PC. I was able to play Valorant, Sons of the Forest, Apex Legends, etc. with no issues at all. I think eventually im going to replace the 3060 graphic card with a 3070 so ill be able to play games at a higher quality.

For most users, the hardware is more than enough. Excellent price for this CPU and GPU combo.
Very quiet. No problems with heat.
The lights can be turned off. That includes the blue light in the front. Just access your BIOS and turn off the lights. It'll take a couple of minutes.
I needed to upgrade the hardware because, at a given time, I will be running Unity, Blender, virtual reality, video editing, multiple IDEs, virtual machines, browser tabs, Netflix, deep learning models, machine learning, simulations, large data sets, etc.
Upgrades:
- 1TB SSD - probably the first thing to upgrade for most users
- 2 x 32GB RAM (yes, I use it) - most developers would be fine with 2 x 16GB RAM
- 2TB HDD - super easy to install (open the non-glass panel)

Hello, Apexpromgt, thank you for choosing Lenovo! Should you or viewers of this response like to know, you can customize the internal and external RGB lighting for this model Legion Tower 5i in an application called "Lenovo Vantage", that is preinstalled on your Legion Tower. This software is a useful tool for a number of things from viewing warranty details and options, checking for software and driver updates, but also using an embedded software called "Legion Spectrum" to customize your desktop chassis lighting to your liking. To access this feature, open the Lenovo Vantage application by searching for it in the search window or in the "all apps" section in the Windows Start menu, then open the Vantage app, scroll down to the bottom, and look for Legion Spectrum customization in the bottom right corner of the app window. We appreciate you sharing your experience and are glad to hear that the features and performance of your Legion 5i meets your needs well. Best of luck on your developing endeavors!

Computer works great. I run everything in 1440p or 4k. Nice and smooth. Works for games like forza , fortnite, gta / gta rp, valorant, any tom clancy, roblox, and minecraft. These are all the games I tested with it 10/10 must buy and you can always upgrade the cpu or gpu if you want.

This Pc has been amazing for me. I upgraded from a relatively dated machine (still running ddr3 RAM). The difference has been absolutely night and day. I would buy this machine again if I were in the market and have recommended it to several friends looking to getting a pc.

Great entry level PC. I spent many hours going back and forth deciding if I should build my own or buy a pre-built.
I’ve been very pleased with this PC, running games like Warzone, overwatch, RuneScape ;), with no issues at all.
If I were to upgrade anything so far it would be the SSD but it seems like that’s a fairly painless task.
Nothing but good things to say

Received this a few weeks ago, and I have been happy so far. I have not over clocked it, so we will see how the heat/performance works then. But for a stock PC, it is great.

This is an excellent gaming computer - I bought it to play games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and Coral Island, and it works perfectly! It has upgradeability, which I like, and the components are nice. It’s definitely worth the value when it’s on sale, as it was when I bought it. It’s a good gaming computer for anyone looking for a starter one.

Great PC - got it on sale, and for the price cut, it’s beyond worth it. Handles intense gaming, and I really put these things to the test with some demanding games. It’s not perfect by any means, but you’ll hold at the very least 60 frames against even the most intensive games, guaranteed. If you want something closer to 120, that just costs more

This computer is a lot heavier than it seems. However, it plays every game that I wanted it to on high or very high settings with zero lag and over 100fps. The small SSD needs to be upgraded almost as soon as you get it. The 1TB hard drive it comes with becomes a bottle neck.

Great build quality with standard components. On sale this was a good buy. Regular price is pretty high for the specs. I can run everything I have tried to play at max graphics with no issues. The keyboard and mouse aren’t bad and i like that it comes without all the RGB lights turned on. I would buy it again as long as it was under $1k
