This is a review of the Lenovo IdeaCentre 510A desktop PC. This version has a 9th Gen Intel Quad Core i3-9100 with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB NVMe SSD. The model number is: 90LV000AUS
I think this is a decent home desktop PC, but the ThinkCentre PCs are higher quality and business class.
Feel free to ask any questions in the comment section below. If you have info to add, I'm always glad to learn something new.

Dude thanks. I'm upgrading this computer for a friend and I couldn't find any info online for if I need that or not. This will save valuable time so I'll have the m.2 SSD mount before he brings it!
You're welcome! Best of luck with the upgrades!
@@ZipTieNinja thanks! As a side note, if it has the WiFi card, it does have that mounting tray already. Thankfully I found out in time to cancel my order 😎
Nice video, just purchased this pc and works great
👍
Zip Tie Ninja thanks for the response
Thanks for showing me this. Helped me understand how to open it up and get to the M.2 slot. First time installing an SSD.
Great! I'm glad it helped!
I have this computer, bought it last Thursday. Had one issue, tried to access the Bios F1 and F2, couldn't get into it. to set auto start up. all I got was a black screen. Called Lenovo Support, they couldn't figure it out, said files were corrupted so take it back, got another same thing...had Staples techs try to access it. got what they called Black Screen Of Death. use to be blue. I said forget the bios, they set it up from my old pc. I later discovered the problem. I thought maybe the monitor had something to do with it. HDMI set up. I hooked up the VGA cable, when I did that suddenly the BIOS lit up. Apparently it will not come up on Monitor when hooked by HDMI. Monitor works fine everywhere else, but not in BIOS. I was surprised how Lenovo and Staples I.T. [dial up prodigies] didn't pick up on this. I called them to let them know what the deal was. All that time trying to figure it out, it was just a cable issue. Computer works great. Replaces my old 2008 Dell computer. Also mine does not have the C USB on the front or back, only 2 USB on the back, 4 up front with card reader. I have mine sitting sideways with the monitor on top. The door is flimsy and hard to open so I put it on top of a plate and can access stuff behind the door. Don't like having to leave the door open with stuff plugged in, looks kinda sloppy, must be designed for college kids. Looks like a dorm room. lol.
Thanks for the review, I was wondering if the AMD Ryzen 5 3400G version is good too thanks.
Yes, the Ryzen CPUs are great. I have one in my custom built PC at home. It's the Ryzen 5 2600.
@@ZipTieNinja Thank you one last question very sorry, do you think the model 'Lenovo 510A' would have a good screen share performance?
Zip Tie Ninja how many watts is the psu?
@@ethangonzalez1611 180 watts - not powerful enough for anything really heavy, but good enough for a simple workstation.
Upgraded Ram to 16gb with Corsair Vengeance 3600mhz so far so good!
Awesome. Corsair Vengeance is great memory.
I have the amd ryzen 3 3200g. Can i upgrade my ram the way you did? I dont know much about pc's would appreciate the help.
@@Mathew-vlogs you actually have a better model that I do. The AMD processors are much better and faster. you hvae 2 slots. so you can buy 2 8gb Corsair Vengence 3600 or whatever has the best rating and best price down to 2666 speed. the video on opening up the box is easy and you will see the RAM sticking up out of 2 slots. just move the grippers on each of the long sides f the memory over and it will pop out. Look carefully as you are removing it where the "notch" is so you put the new one in with the notch in the same place. Push it down and then lock the side grippers. Yours can also handle 2 16 GB so depending on your budget you can put in 32GB of ram and the computer should handle whatever you are doing easily.

@@edwardpriore9318 thank you, really appreciate you getting back to me.
TY for the look, please make a video to show the upgrade to 16gb ram
Upgrading RAM is basically the same process on all standard desktop PCs. I highly recommend asking a friend or professional for help if you are not confident in doing it yourself. If done incorrectly this could damage or destroy your computer.
@@ZipTieNinja thank you! Got it done 👍
thanks for showing how to open it i have a pc like that and i was worried i was gonna break it trying to open it
You're welcome!
Thanks for the video, quick question, Does it support dual monitors?
Yes it does.
Zip Tie Ninja would I need any additional equipment or would I be able to run one screen off of the HDMI and one off of the other port? thanks for the response!
Exactly. One on the HDMI the other on the VGA.
Nice. Just bought one off ebay for $99 and free ship. Mint condt. No video card, but on-board graphics. 16gb ram, and 512 m.2 ssd. I found an nvidia gtx 1050ti card off ebay for $49. For the cheapo price, very nice.
Great deal!
Thanks for the video. Can the tower case be swapped?
Not really
Ok...here's the scoop:
I was doing a complete recovery on my computer (the same one in the video). However, when I got to the C drive partitions, I did a big no-no and deleted something I had no business of deleting. When I went to reboot, I got some weird form of "media" message.
I took it into one of the computer shops here where I live. BUT, the guy working on it wasn't able to get into the bios (mind you, the computer was booting up and going into Windows, but it was extremely SLOW). He was going to consult with one of his co-workers on Monday (he's talking about a possible NEW hard drive).
I'm hoping somehow this will be an easy fix, as the parts at this place (along with labor) are quite high.
I really like this computer. I bought it at Best Buy in March of last year. It had the stand-by stuff (CD/DVD RW, media card, etc)., so that's one of the reasons I bought it. The processor is an Intel, and the hard drive is 1 TB.
If somebody out there has an idea as to what might be going on, I'd appreciate a reply. Thanks.
There are just too many factors to figure out what's going on. My guess is Windows is damaged and will either need to be reinstalled or someone will need to run sfc or dism
@@ZipTieNinja Computer will be returned tomorrow. They were able to get into the bios, but the message that I have at bootup will stay on there until I get a new hard drive. As long as it works for now it's not that big of a deal. I've been checking some sites for SSD drives and some are within my price range.
Just don't go cheap, or they will not last. I recommend something like this: amzn.to/3xCL0xh
They range in size from 250GB to 2TB
@@ZipTieNinja I'd go for the 500...and it was one I was checking out.
What does that small light mean next to the power button?
Blinks with the hard drive access
Whats the size of the psu? I'm trying to replace the psu with an sfx form factor psu to upgrade so I can use a higher wattage gpu. Thanks
The motherboard power connection isn't standard on this PC, FYI
Thanks for responding. I've thought abt it and I now realize that if im going to replace the psu to support a higher spec gpu, I might as well just make a new pc from scratch. Thanks for the info👍
Hello do you know how much memory you can add to this system I like your videos
Thanks! I believe it will accept up to 2x16GB DDR4
around how much fps would this pc get for games like minecraft and roblox ?
I can't know of sure, but both have very low system requirements, so probably around 60fps.
roblox runs pretty good i don’t know the FPS for it, but for minecraft java it runs anywhere from 60-nearly 100 FPS i suggest using the badlion client to help boost it , texture packs will leave it the same i believe bht it won’t hit that 100 FPS mark, shaders will lower it from anywhere to 38-70 FPS so i’d suggest using the lite versions of your desired shader packs if you can find
My question is for the Intel platform is it possible to interchange cpu's? As they all come with core i3, i5, and i7, 8th and 9th gen I believe. I have the i5-8400 cpu and have seen other setups with a i7-8700, and some with i3. Is the motherboard able to accept different cpu's as to if I wanted to upgrade my i5-8400 to the i7-8700 ?
It will very likely work. It all comes down to if the BIOS of the motherboard recognizes the new CPU
You mentioned it doesn't have a fan. Does it need one or will it be okay with just having the CPU cooler?
Rear fan mounting holes are 76 mm
👍
Hi,
I am going to buy Lenovo 510 Thinkcenter, please let me know if its a good machine with Intel i5-7400 and HD630 8GB samsung ram
That CPU is 5 generations old, FYI
@@ZipTieNinja Thanks for reply, but is it sufficient for Steam CS GO

Does this use only the TFX power supply? Or can it use the SFX as well? I think TFX can only go to 300w. And regarding the graphics card, can the case take a full size double fan card, or just small single fan card?
I'd have to measure it, but it is definitely a small form factor PSU. The much bigger issue is the proprietary motherboard connector. It can't take a double fan card, but I'm not completely sure a large single fan card would fit either, give the 3.5" HDD location...
i have new Crucial SSD and 2 maximum RAM (32gb) and I'm not even sure how to install the SSD because I don't know where to put it. I saw in this video (i think) what was where it looked like the SSD was. Ok, well i'd like to find similar details in a step by step guide and all Lenovo has online are those animated diagrams pics. that sorry that don't cut it for me. How about a similar video like this to see real live inside not the cartoon where you see a box and some screws being twisted up and out. Besides taking to repair shop to have installed it looked like it should be easy enough and probably is. Thanks for any suggestions.
Well, it's a decent machine for the money but there are far more better options out there. This meets to the level of an inspiron 3000, jumping to a 5000 would net you an entry level graphics and 4 ram slots, something this system obviously doesn't but that said I still think a system at this price point that includes a Nvme drive is pretty impressive and you could go lower and get far worse.
👍
Regarding replacing CPU fan, what do you advice , my cpy is reaching 88 degree centigrades
Probably more of an issue of your thermal paste then the heatsink and fan itself. Try this: amzn.to/38Pltpl
And this will help you clean off the old paste and purify the surfaces: amzn.to/3BSCxHl
If I watched a similar video with a slightly older model correctly, the CPU can't be upgraded. The power supply is outside the case, using the small DC in jack. I am wondering if a newer Lenovo mobo would fit in the case, but an internal power supply would have to be mounted. Thank you
Not really worth all this effort. Only the cheap models have external power supply, and definitely don't have enough wattage to support more powerful processors. The case I'm sure is different as well. I would just replace the computer
@@ZipTieNinja well, it was a dumpster find (along with an HP Slimline Pavilion). The HDD in the Lenovo IdeaCenterbhad a screw in it, so previous owners info isn't available. Also the CD - ROM drive was removed! So it may or not be worth rebuilding!
does it look like you could swap out the power supply with a semi standard size, so long as you used an adaptor for the connectors to the board? Or is there NO room for anything physically larger?
A standard ATX PSU will not fit at all. The adapters have issues as well. There are multiple discussions on this in the comments of this video and the M720t video as well.
@@ZipTieNinja okay, that's what I figgured. I just skipped around checking the inside. We seem to be entering another era where premades are being made more and more difficult to upgrade.
Can you add an additional hard drive without affecting the ssd drive?
If you have the NVMe SSD, then yes you can add a 3.5" HDD / SSD or adapt to a 2.5". It comes with the power and SATA cable inside to connect one, but it doesn't come with screws to mount it. They are not the standard type of screw, they have an un-threaded portion since they mount into rubber.
Why won't my levono card reader read my sd card
I have this same computer but with the i5 processor. Would it be possible to add the two additional fans without using too much power (with 180w psu) wanting to add a graphics card as well looking at the GeForce 1050ti. Your insight would be much appreciated. Thank you
Adding the 2 fans should be fine, but the graphics card needs more power than the 180w power supply can handle.
From Nvidia about the 1050ti: "Minimum System Power Requirement 300w".
The card only draws 75w, but I doubt the PC has that to spare out of only 180w total.
Hope this helps.
Hey I just purchased this due to needing a quick pick up due to needing it for work. I was thinking of getting into pc gaming any recommended upgrades for it?
You can upgrade the RAM, but it can't support a graphics card of any consequence because of the low wattage power supply. It can't be upgraded either.
Hope this helps!
can it be upgraded to a 450w power supply?
Not really. Please check out the other comments as this has been addressed over and over again
Nice break down, I have the Ryzen 5 3400g version of this, my only gripe is that the motherboard bus speed is set to 2133mhz, is there a way to change this? I bought 3200mhz ram because I knew the 3400g supported 2933mhz. I checked the bios and couldn't find anything. Thanks in advance.
The bus speed can not be changed. I don't think it matters as much as you may think. Between Dual Memory Controllers, and latency (timings), there is probably very little effect in the real world.
Take a look at this: www.wepc.com/tips/ram-speed/
Hope this helps!
I just bought this one, and if I understood you correctly, I could add another HDD to it as my ASUS fan/heatsink going out on 10 year old desktop and want to have access to my files/photos of course. Have you done a video on that process. I have done it before on a couple desktops but not one this small. Thanks so very much.
It comes with the cables you need to connect to the spinning hard drive, but I don't believe it comes with screws to mount it. There are four screw holes on the underside of a standard 3.5 inch hard drive, and there are provisions for this inside the case. If this is daunting, you could always just get an external HD docking station to connect the hard drive via USB. amzn.to/3ajAfq9
@@ZipTieNinja thanks for the response. I bought this one and then realized that my current 11 year old pc has a 1 TB hard drive already. Would it be okay to add a 4 or 6 TB regular hard drive? Will that be okay? I've never had two hard drives in one pc and I know it's done a lot, but I would save photos, videos, etc prob to the largest drive and leave the operating system on the drive the manufactures put into the pc?
@@sunshinetsb1 That would be fine - there aren't really any size limits (particularly these days) regarding a single drive that gets installed into a system, though any drives that are larger than 2 TB will need to use a GPT partition table, otherwise not all of the space can be utilized. (I'm guessing Windows handles this already - I haven't been on Windows since the days of Windows 7.)
thanks for your review, how many 3.5 hard drives can i insert?
2
Do you think the ideacentre 510A 15 - Black lenovo model would be good for recording your screen smoothly? Thanks
Depends on the resolution and refresh rate. You'd be better off with dedicated graphics, but the power supply in this won't support much graphics card wise.
@@ZipTieNinja Thanks I am getting a monitor with a great refresh rate. - Thanks
Do you think i would be able to put a new case on it i have the same one??
It's hard to say. The screw holes will probably lineup for the motherboard, but the power supply will be hard to mount. The front panel connections will be difficult as well, since this has a proprietary plug for the power button and lights.
how do you open it my just won’t open even if i pull the hardest
After taking the two screws out of the back that hold the side panel on, I usually pull the side backwards towards the rear with the handle. Sometimes they get stuck, but it shouldn't be too hard
I found a version of the 510A but with a ryzen 3200g would be good? I know about the processor and it's good but I m nervous that this of lenovo would be worst, because i found this processor it's good for games with there 8 gb ram, because of the Radeon vega 8, but i dont know if when i get the computer the processor would be as good as they make it seem
The Ryzen 3200G is a very good CPU, but I'd still recommend dedicated graphics for gaming. This PC can't support a gaming graphics card with the 180w power supply,, and it can't really be upgraded.
what are the cables on the PSU. Like can you install a GPU with a 6+2 port?
No PCI-E power connector is included. With only a 180w power supply, not much of a video card would work anyway.
Is the headphone jack in the back????
Front and the back
Can I put SSD inside with HDD? Thanks
There are bays for 2x 3.5 inch hard drives. You could easily adapt one of these to a 2.5 inch for a SATA SSD.
There's a M.2 slot on the motherboard, but I think the retainer for it is only included if you ordered one that came with a M.2 drive pre-installed.
where would u plug in a graphics card for this pc
In the PCI Express x16 slot
what motherboard does it have? also if I got a bigger PSU, is there an adapter to plug into the MB?
It depends on which model you get as to which motherboard you will receive. It has a proprietary motherboard connector to the power supply. There are adapters to work with traditional power supplies, but I've had issues with these before and even had one blow up a motherboard.
@@ZipTieNinja thanks
what cable did you use to connect it to your monitor?
HDMI
Can I use a wireless bluetooth headset, and connect to this PC wirelessly for sound?
Yes, it has Bluetooth 4.0
hi i was having troubles incerting a disk i would put the disk in and i think it would fall inside so i am going to recover my disks
Are you talking about a CD? This has a drawer that opens and you have to click it on to the spindle
@@ZipTieNinja hi sorry i didnt reply earlier i fixed the problem it was where the disk went in but got stuck
Throw a GTX 1650 super and this thing will be really powerful!
Will it work fine even though thr psu isn't very strong? Because I'm either going to buy the 1650 or upgrade the psu and buy a better gpu
Is it a micro atx board?And if not what is it?thanks
It probably is micro ATX as far as mounting, but OEM manufacturers don't really meet the ATX standard. Proprietary motherboard power connections, front panel connections, ETC.
Thank you!love your channel
I mainly want to get this for game capture onElgato HD60s. Let me know if it works
I haven't used that device before, but the system requirements list i5 or better and this is an i3. Benchmarks would be more meaningful info than "Intel i5-4xxx quad-core or better".
I would get something more like this: ua-cam.com/video/Z1u20pa-ics/v-deo.html
I edit videos and pictures would this computer be good for that?
Lenovo - IdeaCentre 510A Desktop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 1TB Hard Drive ?
It would work for basic editing, but you would be better served with a dedicated graphics card for rendering. The 180w power supply in this would not be enough to support a decent graphics card. You may want to look at the IdeaCentre 720 Gaming Desktop.
Can you connect 2 monitors with it?
Yes!
@@ZipTieNinja thank you!
Can this be used for streaming from an elgato capture card via PS4?
There are multiple model elgato devices, so system requirements are different depending on which one you choose, but I have already answered this question for another user previously:

Hey i have a pc like this but can i add a ryzen 3 3200g or a ryzen 3 1200?
The version in this review is Intel. Intel and AMD processors use completely different motherboards and completely different chipsets. If yours is the AMD version, then a newer processor may work, but it would have to be supported by the BIOS. Typically I don't recommend trying to upgrade to processors that weren't offered in your configuration.
@@ZipTieNinja Oh okay thanks, i have the amd one, thanks for the info!
can i put a micro atx motherboard in there with a new PSU?
No, the rear IO Shield won't fit in this case. You might as well just get a new case.
What type of power supply does it have and how many watts is it?
The power supply has a proprietary motherboard connector. I believe it is a TFX size. It is only 180 Watts.
so is this computer good or bad in preformance and quality?
Performance is good for the money. It is certainly not the build quality of the M720t, but shares several components.
@@ZipTieNinja I have no idea what you are saying 😂. but do you think the quality and the performance is good?? do you recommend any other cheap pcs that are good in quality and preformance?
can i use a gf 1030 on it?

What about a GTX 1650 low profile?
That's probably fits
Probably fits physically, but power is still an issue.

Or go for a elitedesk g2 to use the pcie x16 or elitedesk g4 to use the port pcie x4
It only has a 180w power supply, so it won't support much of a graphics card. I don't' know used pricing.

can thus computer support a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, 4GB GDDR5
Probably not. The 1050 TI or requires a 300w minimum power supply. This one only comes with 180 Watt, and it cannot be upgraded easily.
Yeah you can I saw toasty bros do it on a similar model if not the same
@@kretisy9530 your right because I contacted Lenovo and they said you can use this graphics card
Can i case swap it and add a 500w Power Supply so I can install a gpu?
Yes and no, but mostly no.
The motherboard power connector is proprietary. There are adapters to allow you to use standard ATX power supplies, but I've had mixed results. 2 worked fine, but 1 blew up a motherboard. I've also heard that the fans will run continuously even when the PC is off.
friend's ideacentre 510A-15ICB, that's the i5 8400 (2.8Ghz)'s 1TB drive is kaput. Repair shop said ideacenter's 1TB drives crap out all too often. Saved him $400 for a drive swap to an SSD, but didn't notice if there was an M.2 slot! I'll have to take another look. Do you have experience with the program "Magical Jelly Bean" to recover separately purchased MSFT Office 365 product keys?
finding a hole to mount the ssd was a joke. got it hanging in the front, under where the HDD would go, with only 1 screw!
So much to say...
Not all IdeaCenter PCs or 510A models come with the same 1TB drive. It's luck of the draw what brand and drive you get, so that's just a ridiculous statement.
It definitely has the M.2 slot on the motherboard, but it may or may not have the bracket with retainer pin (not a screw). If it has WiFi, then it probably does have the bracket, though.
Office 365 doesn't use product keys, they use a web-based login, so you need to log into the account to download and install it. Even if you could get a key, it wouldn't be usable.
@@ZipTieNinja i wonder if it's possible to macgyver ur own bracket? always wanted to use gum like he has in his shows. I replicated his paper and needle record player when i was a kid; that stuff actually worked!
hm, maybe friend is just not using the correct account to log in to 365?
@@ZipTieNinja So I actually got lucky enough to boot with the old HDD long enough to use Belarc Advisor and not only got the Office Product Key, but found the user's email acct he used to get Office, which also happened to not be Office 365 but something called Office Home And Student 2019... LOL
Mine crapped out too. Would it be possible to swap the HDD for an SSD? The included drive is a 1TB Seagate Barracuda.
yes, absolutely. its what my friend ended up doing. I reinstalled win10 from scratch via USB using Windows 10 media creation tool on his new ssd
How many fans does it have and can I add another fan?
No system fan, but it has provisions for 1 front and 1 rear.
I’ve been using the model with the A12 9800
How is it? I've certainly preferred the Ryzen platform over the A series.
@@ZipTieNinja It's served me well as my first real PC. Runs Minecraft well when all particles are turned off. It can even run Star Wars Battlefront 2015 at around 60 fps at medium settings. It is getting old so I am getting the parts to build a replacement, but it's a solid budget machine.
Will PC take faster RAM (3200 vs 2666)?
It will accept it, but I think it will just run it at 2666MHz anyway.
can the psu be upgraded ?
No, not really. It uses a small form factor power supply that is not a standard size. It also uses a proprietary motherboard connector too.
Zip Tie Ninja can you play games in it
I recently got this pc and I wanted to ask can the ram be upgraded?
But it’s a pretty cool pc it’s fast and can play most games
Yes, it will accept up to 2x 16GB DDR4 Modules.
yeah it shud work
and im also upgrading
If I buy this is there anything else I need to buy(other than a monitor)
It comes with a wired power cord, wired mouse, and keyboard. Not sure what else you may need other than the monitor.
What about upgrading the gpu.
This PC would only support a very basic graphics card. The power supply is very low wattage, and is not really upgradable.
Is this computer good for video editing?
It would work for basic editing, but you would be better served with a dedicated graphics card for rendering. The 180w power supply in this would not be enough to support a decent graphics card. You may want to look at the IdeaCentre 720 Gaming Desktop.
Hi for Lenovo S510 how much FPS would I run on Fortnite
I can't say with so little information. If you're talking about the s510 desktop PC, it was available with integrated Graphics, or Nvidia GeForce GT 720 graphics cards (2 versions) . Its capabilities would heavily depend on which it has.
Can you add a graphics card to it
Please look at previous comments as this has been asked and answered several times
YO can you remove the Mother Board?
Yes
can you switch out the graphics card?
It has integrated graphics, not a card. it only has a 180w power supply, so it won't support gaming graphics cards.
@@ZipTieNinja but what about a gtx 1060?
Does an rx 570 8gb fit in ?
(Size: 24,31×3,99×12,4 cm)
Probably not, but the power supply is no where near sufficient, and it can't really be upgraded.
@@ZipTieNinja I was already planning to buy a new power supply (550W), I just wanted to know if it would fit in the case
Do you plan on putting that power supply outside the case and adapting it to the proprietary motherboard connector?
Can I add nvidia graphics card in this pc?
Yes, but because of the limited power supply wattage, you can't put a very powerful card in it.
@@ZipTieNinja can i change the power supply? I think i can
There's more detail in previous comments, but not really. These power supplies are proprietary, and while they can be adapted, have other issues if you do.
A question I found one quite cheap it is a AMD RYZEN 3 2200G processor 8gb DDr4 2666mhz can it play roblox ?
Sounds good. Roblox has super low system requirements, so it should work great.
Is it a 240 pin on the RAM?
No. It's 288-Pin DDR4
can i disasemble and put in a new case with a 450 wat psu
Please read other comments because this has been answered multiple times before.
@@ZipTieNinja can you just answer
In my marked this computer cost 600€ amd 5 3400g and a gpu rx560 is this good (sorry for my bad englisch)
Yes!
@@ZipTieNinja or i build a pc wit cpu amd 5 2600 and gpu 570 with 8 gb
Custom built is a better choice if you want a powerful graphics card, because the power supply doesn't have the wattage to support a high-end card
could I add 2 3.5 hard drives?
If you get this model with the NVMe SSD, then two additional 3.5" drives are supported. Power connectors are available for both, but you will need an additional SATA cable (only 1 spare is included). Also, I don't think screws are included, and are not the standard type. The hard drive mounting locations use isolated rubber mounts, so longer screws with half the shaft unthreaded would work best.
@@ZipTieNinja thanks, very comprehensive and accurate

Yes it should run. This system meets the minimum system requirements. It would run better with a dedicated graphics card. This PC will not accept a very powerful card though.
price ?
Around $500 depending on where you find it.

Can you get fornite in that pc or thos it run at good FPS
You would be much better off with a PC that has dedicated graphics. You can add a graphics card, but this PC's power supply is insufficient for any decent card, and can't be readily upgraded.
personally in my opinion yes you will be able to run but do not force turn it off or you will stutter like mad maybe put it on the performance mode but get a graphics card like the 1030
Not very good with any of this stuff. But could you add a graphics card?
This has been asked and answered before:
The 180w power supply in this would not be enough to support a decent graphics card. You may want to look at the IdeaCentre 720 Gaming Desktop.
ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1650 LP 4GB GDDR5 128-bit Gaming Graphics Card, Super Compact, Low-profile this will fit into it
@@earthenergyhex If you were to install that video card into this system, the power supply would not be able to handle the load, seeing as it requires a 300 watt power supply, and the one included with this system, is a mere 180 watts. Lenovo does have "upgradeable" power supplies for this machine, but none of them are powerful enough. Foregoing this warning has the very real possibility of blowing it up.
@@ayjanu not true it works fine. it only pulls power from the PCIE slot no external power needed. it pulls 75W max.
@@earthenergyhex Huh. So if a video card doesn't need an extra PCI-e power cable, does that mean it's generally safe for lower-wattage PSUs? Is that true across the board?
can i upgrade the ram to 16g?
Yes. It will take up to 32GB of RAM, but it only has 2 slots...
@@ZipTieNinja thanks
Would it run Minecraft good?
Probably. I suggest dedicated graphics for any real gaming, and this one can't really be upgraded very much.
How fps roll fortnite?
I can't know of sure, but probably around 60fps.
@@ZipTieNinja but with view distance in medium
still around 60 fps even when tooling with settings and setting them to low etc
OK thank you
Im looking for a cheap pc that i can play fortnite on do you think this pc can handle it?
They recommend an i5 and dedicated graphics, so I don't think this will work very well.
How many watts?
180 watts. It is proprietary, so not easily upgraded.
@@ZipTieNinja is there any powerful power supplys for it? Im trying to upgrade it
There are adapters to allow you to use standard ATX power supplies, but I've had mixed results. A few worked fine, but one blew up a motherboard. I think the pinout was wrong. You could go with a trusted one based on recent reviews. I don't have any to recommend, though.
FYI, there are issues with the adapters that turn the ATX 20 or 24 pin into the 10 pin motherboard connector needed. I've seen reports of the fan running on the PSU when the PC is off.

is it good gaming like fortnite
No. You need dedicated graphics for gaming and the power supply in this PC won't support one. The power supply can't be upgraded either.
