The Legion Tower 7i is Lenovo's top-end desktop computer, boasting a well-ventilated chassis with a mesh front panel that houses six total 120mm fans (including three fans for the 360mm liquid cooling system) to keep your components nice and cool. The system is powered by a generously oversized 1,200W power supply. We reviewed last year's Legion Tower 7i desktop, which uses the same chassis, and came away impressed.
This particular configuration features an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor, GeForce RTX 5090 32GB graphics card, a whopping 64GB of DDR5-5600MHz of RAM, and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD. According to Passmark, the Core Ultra 9 285K is Intel's best gaming CPU. It's paired with 64GB of DDR5 memory, which is a generous amount for this price.
The RTX 5090 Is the Most Powerful Graphics Card Ever
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has emerged as the most powerful consumer GPU on the market. Although with this generation Nvidia has prioritized software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology to improve gameplay performance, the 5090 still brings an impressive 25%-30% uplift over the RTX 4090 in hardware-based raster performance. If you want the best performance for your gaming PC, there's no competition. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 FE review.
Why Choose Lenovo?
Lenovo Legion gaming PCs and laptops generally feature better build quality than what you'd find from other prebuilt PCs. For desktop PCs in particular, people like the fact that Lenovo does not use proprietary components in its computer systems, so they're easier to upgrade with off-the-shelf parts. Although we haven't yet reviewed the new 2025 models, we have reviewed last year's Legion 7i desktop and really liked its build quality and performance.
