Speaking as an owner of one of the previous-ten Legion desktops, be very vigilant of expansion slots. My motherboard has no PCI-E slots whatsoever, except the ones taken up by a 2070.

My mistake. Lenovo naming convention can be confusing.
This model is the DDR5 version which supports more memory and slots.
The older version is DDR4 with limitations.
