I have been looking around everywhere for more info about upgrading this machine. I have one as well but have not ran into so many issues before. Can you let us know how to deal with the CPU cooling and let us know if air cooling or liquid AIO would work on this rig? Thank you for being so detailed!!!
I have owned this tower for a bit less than year and for it being my first PC from console I’m extremely surprised with what I was able to do with the price range. Highest settings on most games with a 100 fps lock keeps the temps pretty low and the games smooth. I really am looking forward to a storage upgrade as well as a ram upgrade soon, other than that I have no complaints about the machine. The GPU is definitely coming in the future. ✌️
Just picked this up from BB here in Canada. I mean, less than 1000 bucks is not a bad start with a prebuilt. I just came to the realization that I have not had a PC since 2004.... yeah... about that.
Do you know of any AMD decent card that would fit in here? I have this exact tower and I want to run an AMD so that I can have some decent Linux compatibility
The GPU is the easy part; replacing the cooler would be complete and utter hell as the rear side of the case is unable to open; aka you can't put a CPU cooler bracket behind the motherboard unless you physically remove the motherboard A video doing this would be much more interesting
How long we gonna have to wait for that video? I have the same computer I just bought a few months ago and I’ve been buying upgrades for it, the CPU cooler is where I’m stuck cause of the small limited case. Would love to know if you would be able to put a small AIO liquid cooler in it
i have this pc, i am just wondering if it is possible to upgrade the cpu and power supply? a 500w psu is under the reccomended for the 3060 even and will be a limitation if i decide to upgrade. also i am thinking about upgrading the cpu before the graphics card just because cpus are cheaper.
I'm not sure about the cpu but I'm running a thermaltake smart 700w non-modular psu. It has the exact same physical dimensions except you need to buy a 24pin to 10pin adapter for the lenovo MB. Also got a 4070 founders that isn't much harder to fit in than the 3060.
@@elitesquadstudios4898 It needs a higher wattage psu. And then you need a 24 pin to 10 pin adapter for the mobo. The 4070 comes with an adapter for the psu.
I have same PC with little lower specs and just 380w power supply. What went wrong with your psu change? I hope that i can change it someday so i can add better gpu.
Hey, is there xmp on this pc? I've been looking for it for some time as I bought new 64 gb ddr4 3200 mhz ram however it is running at 2133 mhz. The 16gb stock ram was running at 3200 but this new one isn't. Can someone help?

Is it possible to upgrade the tower??
Yes
@@TNW1337hey is it possible to fit an 1080ti in this pc?
Where can I find a tower that fits because I don’t know how to look for compatibility
Quite a Performance boost for one tier of upgrade.
Thanks
Looking forward to the next upgrade on the Lenovo.
The legion or IdeaCentre?
@@TNW1337 IdeaCentre because that's what I have at home for the kids... kids who are into FPS and RTS games.

Very interested in the ssd upgrade video, just purchased this baby and storage isn’t an issue now, but may be down the road. Thanks for all the tips!
Did you upgrade the power supply unit and if you did what power supply unit is it
Is there room to add a case fan? It seems maybe the front has no more room. Thanks!

There is a 500w psu and it will support up to a 4070.

can anyone please share a bolt on CPU cooler upgrade????
Would the 500watt power supply be able to handle the 3070 though
It will handle it.
@@TNW1337 k thanks and do you know if the case is swappable to a different one and which ones would work?
