Deal | Powerful Lenovo Legion Tower 7i Gen 10 with RTX 5080 gets a huge $1,700 discount
Lenovo is running a major weekend sale on its website, which has seen the powerful Legion Tower 7i Gen 10 desktop drop to its lowest price to date. Equipped with an RTX 5080 GPU, the PC is currently listed at $2,789.99, a 27% discount from its $3,849.99 list price. On top of that, buyers can bring the price down further to $2,149 by applying the code WEEKENDPOWERUP at checkout. That makes it a total savings of about $1,700 and a fantastic value considering what this PC brings to the table.
The Nvidia RTX 5080 is a high-end GPU that puts out excellent gaming performance in 4K at high and even ultra settings with a bit of DLSS magic. It’s an excellent choice for players chasing higher refresh rates but would rather not splurge on the RTX 5090. Lenovo pairs the powerhouse GPU with 32 GB DDR5 RAM and a liquid-cooled Intel Core Ultra 7 265K. Admittedly, it’s not the first-choice CPU for gaming compared to something like the Ryzen 9800X3D, but it holds its own, especially since the GPU does most of the heavy lifting at 4K.
Legion Tower 7i Gen 10 specifications:
- GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 16GB

Windows Central reviewed an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K variant of this PC and managed to hit 146 FPS in Forza Horizon 5, 135 FPS in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and 84 FPS in Cyberpunk 2077 at 4K resolution and ultra settings with DLSS disabled. Since the Intel Core Ultra 7 265K sits just below the Ultra 9 285K, performance on this model should be fairly close, especially with DLSS enabled.
As with many prebuilts, the main drawback is the extra bloatware that comes preinstalled. Plus, this model comes with slower M.2 Gen 4 drives instead of the speedy Gen 5 SSDs. Fortunately, it is upgradeable, so you can swap the SSDs and RAM for faster models down the road.
