Compact business desktop for office work

The Lenovo ThinkCentre M720s SFF is a new small-form-factor desktop built around an Intel Core i5-8500 hexa-core processor with a 3.00 GHz base clock and up to 4.10 GHz turbo. It ships with 8GB DDR4 memory, a 256GB NVMe SSD and Windows 11 Pro, plus a wireless keyboard and mouse. The chassis uses air cooling and includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for cable-free peripherals.

Check monitor, network speed and expansion room

No monitor is included, so you must supply a display with a compatible video input. The single RJ45 port provides Fast Ethernet rather than Gigabit, which may limit wired throughput on faster networks. The slim case restricts internal expansion, so verify that any add-in cards or extra drives you plan to fit will physically fit the SFF layout and the available power budget.

SFF chassis saves desk space

The black compact tower is designed for space-constrained offices and keeps the footprint small while housing the CPU, memory and NVMe storage. Included wireless keyboard and mouse reduce cable clutter, and the integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support flexible placement away from wired network points. Air cooling handles the 8th Gen i5 within the slim enclosure for everyday business workloads.

Questions about this item

Does the box contain a monitor or must I buy one separately?

No monitor is included; the package contains the M720s SFF unit, a wireless keyboard and mouse, and a power cord.

Is the 8 GB of DDR4 memory upgradeable if I need more capacity later?

The system ships with 8 GB DDR4 installed; additional DDR4 modules can be added to the available slots on the motherboard.

What real-world benefit does the 4.10 GHz turbo speed of the i5-8500 provide?

The 4.10 GHz turbo lets the hexa-core processor handle short bursts of heavy workloads such as large spreadsheets or compile jobs more quickly than the 3.00 GHz base clock alone.
