Lenovo ups its Y Series game with new gaming systems

Along with refreshing its consumer desktops and laptops with Intel’s new sixth generation Skylake processors, Lenovo is also giving its gaming systems a boost. Lenovo’s game-centric PCs are branded under the IdeaCentre Y Series, and the gaming laptops fall under the IdeaPad Y Series.

In addition to upgrading its hardware, Lenovo is also introducing new gaming peripherals. The company is rolling out a new mechanical keyboard, mouse and headset.

IdeaCentre Y900 and Y700

As part of Lenovo’s new re-branding, the higher the series number means the better the specs. As such, the Y900 is the flagship IdeaCentre gaming desktop in the series.

Both the IdeaCentre Y900 ($1,599, £1,039, AU$2,246) and Y700 ($999, £649, AU$1,403) are highly serviceable and upgradeable machines, featuring a chassis large enough to fit a full ATX motherboard. Both models feature processor selection up to a quad-core Intel Core i7 Skylake, but the Y900 features support for dual graphics cards accessible via a push lever that opens a second compartment.

The Y900 also comes with dust filters that helps the fans stay clean to keep the system cool.
