I found a gaming desktop that balances gaming and creative tasks (for less than $2K)

Lenovo's Legion T5 is a powerhouse gaming desktop that delivers top-notch performance at a midrange price. But not everyone will love its physical design.

I swapped out my personal PC with the Lenovo desktop for a time, and often found myself bumping the side of the computer with my legs and chair. This configuration allowed fast-paced shooters like "Call of Duty" and stylized action games like "Hades 2" to run without a hitch, keeping framerates consistently high. The Legion T5's ability to support multiple visual enhancers and still get mostly smooth performance allows the desktop to separate itself from the average prebuilt computer.
