Lenovo RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC Drops to $1,799.99

Lenovo is selling two RTX 5070 Ti gaming PCs for under $2,000

Lenovo is currently offering two prebuilt gaming PCs with Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card for less than $2,000. This is a rare price point for a system with this GPU, which is typically marked up significantly when sold individually.

The deals are made possible by a 10% off coupon code, PDLIVE26, which is still active. Given the current high prices for DIY components, these prebuilt configurations present a compelling value.

The DIY market is prohibitively expensive

Building your own system with an RTX 5070 Ti is not currently cost-effective. The GPU alone is selling for at least $250 over its MSRP on the open market.

Alternative cards, like the Radeon RX 9070 XT or RTX 5080, also carry steep markups. With the rising cost of GPUs and RAM, these Lenovo prebuilts are a notable exception to the trend of expensive PC components.

Legion Tower 5 with RTX 5070 Ti: $1,799

The first deal is a Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10, priced at $1,799.99 after the coupon. Its core specifications are robust for the price.

• CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX
• GPU: GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16GB)
• RAM: 32GB DDR5-5600MHz
• Storage: 1TB SSD
• Cooling: 240mm AIO liquid cooler

A key detail is the CPU. The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX is a laptop processor soldered onto a custom motherboard. This means the CPU is not upgradeable in the future.

For most buyers who won't swap the CPU, it offers excellent performance. The RTX 5070 Ti itself is a powerful card for 4K gaming, performing on par with the previous-generation RTX 4080 Super and excelling with features like DLSS 4.5.

Legion Tower 7 with RTX 5070 Ti: $1,990

For users who want an upgradeable system, the Legion Tower 7 configuration is $1,990 after the coupon. It swaps the soldered laptop CPU for a high-end desktop chip.

This PC is built around the Intel Core Ultra 9 285K, a 24-core desktop processor. The system uses the larger Legion Tower 7 chassis, which includes better airflow and a more capable 360mm AIO liquid cooler.

A cheaper option for 1440p gaming

If your target is 1080p or 1440p gaming, a more affordable configuration is available. A Lenovo Legion Tower 5 with an RTX 5070 is priced at $1,575 after the same coupon.

Its specs are tailored for high-frame-rate gaming at these resolutions.

• CPU: Intel Core Ultra 7 265F (liquid-cooled)
• GPU: GeForce RTX 5070 (12GB)
• RAM: 32GB DDR5-5600MHz
• Storage: 2TB M.2 SSD

The RTX 5070 is positioned as the ideal GPU for 1440p gaming. It offers a slight performance bump over the excellent RTX 4070 Super, with greater gains in games that support DLSS 4.5.
