People use technology to make their lives easier and to discover exciting ways of staying entertained at home. Whether you're embracing PC gaming for the first time or have been a passionate gaming devotee for years and just need an upgrade, Lenovo is committed to bringing you technologies that are not only smarter but also offer more choices to more people. We actively listen to feedback from the gaming community and understand that gamers want fun, immersive experiences in sleek-looking devices with stellar FPS performance at the best value. In short, players want more choices.
That's why following the recent launch of our new Lenovo Legion lineup this spring that focused on customer-inspired innovations such as a better keyboard and thermals, our engineering team worked on expanding even more Windows 10 PC options for gaming enthusiasts. The expansion won't cut corners on performance, graphics, or display either. Available starting this summer, we've added AMD Ryzen mobile and desktop processors to five new Lenovo Legion gaming PCs—the 17-inch Lenovo Legion 5 laptop (alongside its 15-inch size that's already available with AMD Ryzen 4000 H-Series Mobile Processors), the high-octane Lenovo Legion 5P laptop, the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 laptop for entry-level gaming, plus the Lenovo Legion Tower 5 and IdeaCentre Gaming 5 desktops.
Next-level AMD Ryzen 4000 H-Series Mobile Processors can improve your thin and light Lenovo Legion laptop's performance by raising clock speeds—making games, content creation and productivity applications all run much faster.
Built using the AMD "Zen 2" core architecture with 7 nm process technology, Lenovo Legion offers customers the latest Ryzen Mobile Processors that deliver balanced performance with better responsiveness than its predecessor.1 The Ryzen 4000 Series Mobile Processors also offer twice the power efficiency compared to the previous generation.2 When paired with available NVIDIA GeForce GPUs, Lenovo's gaming laptops and desktops come fully equipped to tackle the latest games with remarkable speed.
These additions strengthen the diversity of Lenovo's PC gaming portfolio, offering players more processor and graphics options needed to experience the latest games at the highest settings. Let's check out these powerhouse machines.
Don't skimp on your selection - Lenovo Legion 5
Offering more choices for gamers in a clean, minimalist design, the Lenovo Legion 5 laptop comes in two sizes and is equipped with up to AMD Ryzen 7 4800 H-Series Mobile Processors paired with up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPUs.
With up to 144Hz smooth refresh rate, the 15.6-inch and 17.3-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) wide-viewing angle displays are enabled with Dolby Vision for spectacular picture quality. You can experience the Harman Kardon Speaker System with acoustics chamber and immersive Dolby Atmos audio,3 providing a new level of exciting sound that will enrich your gaming experience.
The Lenovo Legion 5 delivers up to 16 GB 3200 MHz DDR4 memory, 1 TB PCIe SSD of storage4, and it's optimally cooled via advanced Lenovo Legion Coldfront 2.0 thermals and available in sleek Phantom Black hue.
If you feel a deeper key travel (up to 1.5 mm) on the Lenovo Legion 5, that's by design, thanks to the second transition curve of our inspired Lenovo Legion TrueStrike keyboard. A white backlit keyboard offers 100 percent anti-ghosting and soft-landing switches—resulting in hair-trigger accuracy and a more tactile gaming experience. The 17-inch model provides up to 7.5 hours of battery life5 and Rapid Charge Pro.6
Outpace the competition - Lenovo Legion 5P
For excellent gaming performance, the Lenovo Legion 5P laptop has up to AMD Ryzen 7 4800 H-Series Mobile Processors and up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPUs.

Ideal for eSports, the Lenovo Legion 5P comes in Iron Grey and features white-lit "Y" logo. Crucial to keeping heat away from players' fingertips and minimizing noise is the enhanced thermal performance of Lenovo Legion Coldfront 2.0, featuring copper heat sinks and a quad channel ventilation system to circulate cool air to key system components. It also uses an integrated thermal module for greater thermal efficiency. Enjoy maximum performance via Dual Burn support, which pushes the CPU and GPU together for improved framerates, as well as Lenovo Q-Control 3.0 for when you want to manually switch between performance modes.
With up to 32 GB 3200 MHz DDR4 memory and up to 1 TB PCIe SSD4 of storage, its Harman Kardon speakers are optimized with Dolby Atmos3 for sound that flows around you. Dedicated media keys and number pad make video editing and setting macros a snap, while its smarter, Lenovo Legion TrueStrike keyboard provides 100 percent anti-ghosting and is available with optional 4-zone RGB system backlighting.
Effortlessly portable at under an inch thin and weighing 2.5 kg (5.1 lbs), gamers on-the-go will get up to 7.5 hours of battery life5 with Rapid Charge Pro and can use the slim power adapter7 to charge from zero to up to 50 percent battery life in 30 minutes.6
