Compact business desktop

The Lenovo ThinkCentre M720q Tiny is a micro-form-factor desktop built around an 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8700 hexa-core processor running at 3.20 GHz with a 4.60 GHz turbo boost. It ships with 16 GB DDR4 memory and a dual-drive layout of 256 GB M.2 SSD plus 1 TB SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed, and a USB keyboard and mouse are included. The chassis is finished in black.

Thermals noise and power

The i7-8700 is rated at 65 W TDP, so the small chassis relies on an internal blower-style cooler that spins up under sustained load. At idle the system is quiet enough for open-plan offices; under full CPU load fan noise rises to a noticeable but not intrusive level. Power draw scales with workload, staying well within the limits of the external power adapter supplied with the unit.

Upgrade path and fit

This desktop replaces older tower or small-form-factor PCs where desk space is at a premium and a modern Windows 11 platform is required. The dual SSD arrangement gives fast boot and ample capacity without adding mechanical drives. It is not suited for buyers who need discrete graphics, additional internal drive bays, or memory beyond the 32 GB DDR4 ceiling supported by the platform.

Questions about this item

How do I install more memory in the M720q Tiny, and what step is often missed?

Open the case, insert DDR4 UDIMM modules into the 240-pin slots up to 32 GB total, and ensure each module clicks fully into place — the most common mistake is leaving a module partially seated.

Which components in this M720q will likely need replacement first?

The DVD-ROM drive and the USB Wi-Fi/BT dongle are the only moving or external parts; the 256 GB M.2 SSD, 1 TB SSD, and 16 GB DDR4 memory have no moving parts and typically last the system's life.

What thermal limit appears first when the i7-8700 runs at 4.60 GHz under sustained load in this Tiny chassis?

The 65 W processor will hit the compact case's cooling capacity before reaching its maximum turbo frequency for long periods, causing the CPU to throttle to a lower clock speed to stay within thermal limits.
