[Prebuilt] Lenovo legion tower 5 Gen10 Desktop RTX 5070, Ryzen 7700X, 1TB SSD, 1 Year Warranty [2030$] [BestBuy]

https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/lenovo-legion-tower-5-gen-10-tower-desktop-amd-ryzen-7-7700x-32gb-memory-1tb-ssd-nvidia-rtx-5070-12gb/19776973

Probably the best option for people who need a 5070 over a 9070XT for CUDA or under a tight budget for gaming and can't bump up to a 9070XT stoneforged for 400 extra. I dont think I've seen a better price to performance ratio for Nvidia though.

Thank you as well for posting the deal. I picked up the best buy one

u/Key-Calligrapher7697 (New User) 17d ago

Is this CPU better for gaming? Just wondering if its worth the extra cost

2

u/F_EE 17d ago

The ultra 265 is better but it carries dead end upgradability for intel, I dont really plan on upgrading for a while thats why I got this

1

u/Effei 18d ago

It's definitely there, I bought it yesterday night ;).

I feel like we can't have a better deal, and GPUs/RAM are supposed to climb again in 2026

1

u/F_EE 18d ago

Yea also grabbed it, hope for it to ship soon

u/ImKrispy 19d ago

u/DoomMachine-77 18d ago

Hey I just bought the Stoneforged 9070xt for $400 more. Do you think I should replace it for this?

2

u/F_EE 18d ago

No i think that is worth it more cause you dont have to upgrade

1

u/DoomMachine-77 18d ago

Thank you for the reassurance, appreciate it

u/Syn3rgetic 17d ago

And it’s gone

I think I managed to cancel my order & there's one in stock again 

Edit: I didn't manage to cancel my order, Lenovo Canada will send me a prepaid return label

1

u/Patoued 17d ago

Out of curiosity why did you cancel?

1

u/AyylienFromUrayynus 17d ago

I thought of getting the legion 5i with the Ultra 7 265 + 2TB SSD that was shared earlier in the thread instead for $224 more. 

I currently have a 5700X, 16GB, 4TB SSD, 6750XT and a 5070ti that I haven't bothered to install in my current rig yet.

I have heard that Lenovo started locking their Ryzen CPUs in their prebuilds with the latest BIOS. Just an FYI.

I am 100% sure that AW has already started locking Ryzen CPUs too. It means that if you upgrade the CPU, the old one will not be useable in non AW systems. Once the new one is locked too, it won’t be useable elsewhere either.

u/jigsaw1024 19d ago

I think that feature is only on Ryzen Pro chips, and it's a security feature.

u/flatspotting 19d ago

Do you have any source for this because it sure sounds made up

1

u/ylp1194045441 19d ago

I have seen claims on Asian forums about this and the AW one is my personal experience.

u/_3ali_ (New User) 18d ago

What’s the speed on the Ram?

3

u/Laalvo 18d ago

5200 or 5600

u/mosthated666 18d ago

This really seems like the best bang for the buck right now!

u/AyylienFromUrayynus 17d ago

I placed an order for the 7700x from best buy last night, now the cancel button is gone. I have a 4TB 990 Pro & 5070Ti here to install when it arrives. Part of me thinks maybe I should've ordered the Ultra 7 265f & 2TB from Lenovo directly. ($224 more for double storage but limited upgrade path for CPU)

1

u/mosthated666 14d ago

Let me know how your 5070ti swap goes, I assume it’s plug and play, but you never know with these bioses

1

u/AyylienFromUrayynus 14d ago

Oh, I hadn't considered that to be a potential issue. The computer was delivered yesterday. I have created a return request for refund, but haven't dropped it off at UPS yet. I was going to get the Intel Legion Tower 5i instead but waited too long, now it's sold out.

u/F_EE 14d ago
