The Lenovo ThinkCentre M75q Gen 5 is a compact mini-PC designed for use in office environments and small workstations. The device features an AMD Ryzen™ 5 8500GE processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, achieving a base frequency of 3.4 GHz and a boost frequency of up to 5 GHz. This performance combination enables efficient processing of multiple applications simultaneously and supports demanding office applications as well as multimedia tasks. The integrated graphics solution is based on the AMD Radeon 740M, ensuring smooth display of images and videos and supporting up to three displays simultaneously. The graphics are designed for a maximum resolution of 7680 x 4320 @ 60 Hz, making them suitable for professional image editing and multi-monitor setups.

The ThinkCentre M75q Gen 5 is particularly suitable for workstations where space is limited, as the device has a volume of only 1 litre and is designed in a compact form factor. It can be positioned both vertically and horizontally, allowing for flexible mounting on desks, behind monitors, or in shelves. The low height of 36.5 mm and dimensions of 179 mm (width) × 182.9 mm (depth) make it an ideal device for small offices, call centres, retail outlets, or as a workstation in industrial environments. The integrated security feature with a Kensington security slot provides additional protection against theft.

The system is equipped with 16 GB DDR5-SDRAM memory operating at a clock frequency of 5200 MHz. The memory architecture supports dual-channel mode, increasing data transfer rates and improving system responsiveness. There are two SO-DIMM slots available, allowing the memory to be expanded up to a maximum of 32 GB. Memory expansion enables adaptation to future requirements, such as the use of virtual machines or demanding applications. The SSD storage solution consists of a 512 GB M.2 SSD with PCIe 4.0 interface and NVMe support, ensuring fast boot times and short access times. The SSD is in the M.2 2280 form factor and can be expanded with a second M.2 SSD module, with a maximum capacity per drive of up to 1 TB.

The integrated AMD Radeon 740M graphics provide sufficient performance for office applications, websites, video conferencing, and light graphic editing. The graphics card supports modern display standards and enables the simultaneous operation of up to three monitors, which is advantageous for multitasking scenarios. The WLAN connection is based on the Wi-Fi 6E standard (802.11ax) with a 2x2 antenna configuration, ensuring a stable and fast wireless network connection. Bluetooth 5.3 enables wireless connection with peripheral devices such as keyboards, mice, or headphones. The Ethernet connection supports data rates of 100/1000 Mbit/s, which is sufficient for connecting to a local network. Power supply is provided by an external 65-W power adapter designed for a voltage of 100–240 V, making it suitable for worldwide use.

The ThinkCentre M75q Gen 5 features a wide range of connections, enabling flexible integration into existing work environments. On the front side, there is a USB-C port (USB 3.2 Gen 2), two USB-A ports (USB 3.2 Gen 2), and a combined headphone/microphone jack (3.5 mm). On the rear, there is an additional USB-A port (USB 3.2 Gen 2), three USB-A ports (USB 2.0), an HDMI 2.1 port, a DisplayPort port, and an RJ-45 Ethernet port. The HDMI and DisplayPort ports support the operation of multiple monitors, with a maximum resolution over HDMI 2.1 of up to 7680 x 4320 @ 60 Hz. The combination of USB-C and USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports allows connection to modern peripheral devices and fast storage media.
