Great review man. Super detailed and loved it

Going to order this next week since it’s on sale can’t wait

Thank you for the review. A question: Are the fans noisy? At full load, have you by chance measured the decibels?

Dope video, I’m looking at some PC’s for a first buy. Thought about a laptop but saw this one on Amazon and seems like a good deal on prime day too. Thank yo!

Nice review. You seem like an awesome guy. Thanks dude!

The more interesting part would have been, who made those components? Who made the video card, ram, etc

Hi nice review. I want to know how loud do the fans get in normal browsing the internet or MS Office use? And how about when using video editor like Davinci resolve or photos with lightroom? Then also how loud is it when gamimg some AAA games on Steam? I'm thinking of getting this Legion T5 to replace my old but still great Alienware R7. I like Lenovo I have a Legion Y540 Laptop with RTX 2060.

Thanks for the review. I was wondering if those 4 tiny circular indentations on my heatsink plate near the Legion logo were a defect until I saw yours at 3:57-3:58. Must be normal. When the RGB is on, you can plainly see these indentations.

I love watching this video, its the first one i saw of yours but it definitely wont be the last

Do you know which ram you need to upgrade the ram on the lenovo legion t5? Also DDR 5 5600 mhz

I've always been a custom rig guy, but I've got a corporate discount off of all Lenovo rigs so I was super curious as to whether the legions are worth their price tags. Ty for the review. It may be the opinion that sways me towards giving it a shot.

Can anyone link a video how to add the additional fans on top? Does the current model come with a splitter for power or can they be connected directly to the motherboard?

Does the 2 others m.2 slots are accessible easily or we need to remove de gpu ?

Nice and complete review from hardware specification, pricing, and performance.

They are all on sale right now

I got this exact same one on a Black Friday sale for 1500. This is my first gaming pc, coming from gaming on console all my life. I absolutely love this thing. There is no way I could go back to gaming on a console.

I got mine on Black Friday for $800, but its because I opted for the more budget friendly configurations. I've been a console gamer my whole life and wanted to dip my toes into PC, especially to enjoy mods on games like FNV. All the stuff was delivered by now but I'm waiting for my semester to end before I start setting it up.

What’s the motherboard?

Thank u G

That vrm is going to throttle, i had a t5 with a i9 and no vrm heatsinks, any wattage above 125w on the cpu made it throttle. Had to replace the motherboard cuz it was messing with my frame time. Idled at 75c and ran above 100c while gaming! Also this only happend in performance/balanced mode. Quiet mode throttles the cpu at 75c. Performance mode doesn't increase fan speed it only allows the cpu to get above 75c and only then the fans speed up. Not to forget that these fans are 1.2A fans 12×1.2A=14,4 watts which is really bad for a case fan

ecause Nvidia and even the AIB specs have to assume worst case, so they are giving recommendations of something like a 12900KS that's 150W base 241W boost (or higher depending on motherboard with OC), highest drawing motherboard, RAM, a bunch of case fans, RGB lighting, etc, Lenovo would base on what's in the computer, so in that case a 65W CPU that boosts up 117W, so that's 220W GPU + 117W CPU, so 337W plus other components in the case.

so you did not power on your system on day 1 to check whether it was working :hmm:

I have literally the exact same machine same specs.. but when I load any game, it stutters, for few seconds, the it plays normally, this happens on every restart... I mean is there something that I'm missing??

They should have never shipped this with a measly 500w PSU. You need about a 650w or better still a 700w PSU. He should have known to address this in the video, though not his fault for Lenovo being idiots

ok so i got the exact same pc about a month ago i think it didnt come with a mouse and keyboard and also it has a 3060 ti but it cost 1700 but it had students discount so we got it for 1500 why is it cheaper where u are? and its also with no taxes cuz theres no taxes in my city the specs are the same except the 3060 ti which is a bit disappointing also that i didnt get a mouse and keyboard

Just wondering if you can upgrade the gpu in the future?

It's one of the best prebuilt systems you could get and it's also got good temps and the connectors are not proprietary so you can change the case or whatever component you want. HOWEVER,Lenovo systems will LOCK the CPU to their boards only so if you want to upgrade the CPU later,the old one can't be sold because it will only work in your specific motherboard only,and also it will lock your new cpu to the board again too so if the board will die you won't be able to use the processor on any other motherboard either

just ordered this exact model for 1420 after tax. I am eventually going to grab a 650w psu with custom cables because it's pretty ugly, and probably replace the ram with something fancier. otherwise specs look great and it's a nice case

@nodaitsu

It is a fault. Sort of. Google around and you will find plenty of reports of memory not running at spec on the Legion Tower 5i and 7i. Commonly, 4400 MHz for two modules, and 4000 MHz for four. 7i was fixed for some people with a BIOS update later on. My own 5i, basically identical to this one, is still stuck there, even with the 5600 MHz modules that Lenovo shipped with it. Only real solution is to hope for a BIOS fix later on or to replace the motherboard with a third party one - thankfully fairly easy thanks to the standard parts. Bonus of going that route, you can enable XMP profiles and overclocking and have in general a much more useful BIOS. Edit for slight addendum: Some report success getting another set of memory of their own, but at least for the 5i at present you must be sure it has a 5600 MHz JEDEC profile, at the DDR5 official 1.1 Volts rating. XMP or EXPO will not work, seemingly no matter what, and often require much more voltage. For what it's worth, I specifically sought out a 32 GB kit of Crucial 5600 MHz modules that I knew would have the correct specifications, and while it did give me some additional choices in the sub-menu, still no luck in getting it to boot at 5600, so your mileage may definitely vary. The lower speed is not a deal breaker on performance, just a little annoying to not get what you paid for on the sticker, you know?

@@nodaitsu I'm going to consider myself lucky. I was able to run 5600mhz for my ram kit but only on 2 sticks. I tested with 4 and it would not boot with XMP. Alternatively, I was able to run the 4 sticks at 4000mhz.

With this latest BIOS update, I can happily report being able to use the XMP profiles now! Just be patient with it while it trains. Have not tried with the RAM it came with since I got it, since I upgraded to a 32 GB kit pretty quickly. Also be ready for a BIOS reset if it still doesn't like it. Running smoothly at the rated 5600 now with two modules, and now even more pleased with what has been a really high value purchase.

That lighting, though. It is sooo distracting 😅

The generic RAM just kills the overall look inside.

You didn't mention negatives at all? The PSU is a cheap off-brand 500w. The 4070 has a minimum recommended PSU of 650w. The ram is cheap and runs at 4400MHz, which isnt the greatest. These are the weak points of this PC. The bios locks the ram to run no faster than 4400MHZ. Your review seems biased in favour of lenovo. Overall its a good computer, but it has negatives too.

@wayne9241

The PSU is now 850w 80 plus gold. Lenovo must of realised the limitations of a 500w PSU and changed it. It was the first thing I checked before purchasing it myself in January this year.
