The Lenovo ThinkCentre neo Ultra Gen 2 takes the idea of a compact desktop and turns the performance dial considerably further than expected. Inside its remarkably small 3.6-litre chassis sits an Intel Core Ultra 7 265 processor with 20 cores and boost speeds of up to 5.3GHz, paired with 32GB DDR5 memory, a 1TB PCIe NVMe SSD and dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB GDDR7 graphics. That combination makes this tiny PC ready for much more than spreadsheets and email, with the horsepower for content creation, 3D modelling, data visualisation, demanding multitasking and GPU-accelerated applications.
AI workloads get dedicated assistance from Intel AI Boostalongside a discrete NPU card, providing additional local AI acceleration for compatible applications and productivity tools. Despite the compact footprint, expansion has not been forgotten: memory is upgradeable, multiple M.2 storage positions are supported and the system can accommodate up to four SSDs for substantial future storage capacity. Connectivity is equally ambitious, including Wi-Fi 7, Thunderbolt 4, USB-C, multiple high-speed USB-A ports, HDMI and DisplayPort outputs, with support for extensive multi-display setups. Add Windows 11 Pro, wired Gigabit Ethernet and an included wireless keyboard and mouse, and the ThinkCentre neo Ultra Gen 2 is an impressively complete high-performance desktop for users who want serious computing power without surrendering half their desk to the PC.
