The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC is equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X processor, GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is a slightly older Zen 4 model with a max boost clock of 5.4GHz, 8 cores, 16 threads, and a 32MB L3 cache. It’s cooled by a 120mm tower heatsink and fan combo. This is a solid processor for gaming, multi-tasking, or workstation purposes and you’ll get less uplift upgrading your CPU than you would getting more memory, more storage, or a better graphics card.

A total of six 120mm RGB fans and a sensibly designed 30L midtower chassis keeps your components quiet and cool. An 850W 80PLUS Gold power supply provides plenty of power. The case offers toolless entry and most of the components are non-proprietary, so they are easy to swap out or upgrade yourself down the road.

The GeForce RTX 5070 GPU is an excellent choice for 1080p or 1440p gaming

Compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 performs comparably with the RTX 4070 Super. We wish there was a bigger generation improvement in raw performance, but the RTX 4070 Super was already an excellent card for 1080p and 1440p gaming. In any case, the RTX 4070 Super GPU has since been discontinued and is only readily available in the used market. The RTX 5070 also supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, and the performance gap widens in games that support this new technology , like Wuchang: Fallen Feathers and Doom: The Dark Ages.
