It’s easy to see why so many PC buyers turn to Lenovo desktop systems with Intel CPUs. With so many different Intel-based models available, there’s sure to be an Intel-based Lenovo desktop to suit your needs.

Intel desktops for every user and need

Consumers buy desktop PCs for different reasons. Business work (whether at the office or at home). Studying for school. PC game playing. Family entertainment. Sometimes all of these together. Fortunately, an Intel desktop can do it all. And you can buy one at virtually any price point.

Yet while most laptops come in the same basic shape and size, there’s a wide variety of desktop PC form factors. The one you choose depends on the features you need and how you plan to use your new PC.

Lenovo’s Intel-based desktop form factors

Lenovo offers Intel-based desktop PCs in multiple shape and sizes:

• Desktops: A desktop PC is built to sit horizontally on a desk or other surface. It's the original PC form factor, so the term is also used generically to describe any standard, non-laptop system.
• Towers: A tower PC sits vertically to consume less desk space – or allow it to be placed on the floor. This flexibility has helped make towers today's most popular standard PC form factor.
• Cubes: Cube PCs are slimmer and taller than desktops but shorter and wider than towers. They offer easy cable management and extra interior space for advanced components and air flow.
• Gaming rigs: Desktop gaming PCs can be any shape, though towers are common. The distinction lies inside: extra CPU and graphics power to support faster frame rates and other gaming needs.
• Mini PCs: A mini PC (or Small Form Factor or Tiny PC) is built to fit anywhere. Yet while small, it's fully capable, with components to support virtually any task while staying cool and quiet.
• Workstations: A PC workstation has extra processing power, memory, and other features for compute-intensive applications. Popular uses are AI, data analytics, content creation, and so on.
• All-in-Ones: All-in-one PCs offer a complete experience – computer, display, maybe a keyboard, etc. – as a single device or integrated set. And it all fits in the space of a standard PC monitor.

With so many size and form factor options, it’s easy to see why the desktop PC – the original personal computer – is still going strong. Equip your new Lenovo system an Intel processor and your computing needs will be met for years to come.
