Lenovo ThinkStation P2 Tower Gen 2 — AI-Ready Workstation
NVIDIA RTX A400 4GB (pro)Core Ultra 7 265 (20-core) vPro32GB DDR5-5600Windows 11 Pro
The Lenovo ThinkStation P2 Tower Gen 2, part number 30JQ00AHGE, is an AI-ready tower workstation pairing a 20-core Intel Core Ultra 7 265 processor with a professional NVIDIA RTX A400 graphics card, 32GB of DDR5 memory and Windows 11 Pro — built for CAD, design and engineering professionals who need certified workstation graphics with room to expand.
The Core Ultra 7 265 is a Series 2 (Arrow Lake) chip with vPro — 20 cores (8 Performance + 12 Efficiency) reaching up to 5.3 GHz with 30MB of Smart Cache and a built-in NPU for on-device AI. It is matched with 32GB of DDR5-5600 (2× 16GB across four UDIMM slots, expandable to 128GB) and a 512GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe Opal SSD. The professional NVIDIA RTX A400 with 4GB GDDR6 drives certified 2D/3D applications and can output to up to four displays via its Mini DisplayPort 1.4a connectors.
As part of Lenovo’s AI-ready line, the P2 Tower Gen 2 supports up to 128GB DDR5, PCIe Gen 5 storage and an 80 PLUS Platinum power supply in an expandable tower chassis with Intel vPro management. Within the P2 Tower range this build offers entry professional graphics — the consumer GeForce RTX 5070 build is the step up for heavier GPU work. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Display outputs — good to know
The professional NVIDIA RTX A400 provides four Mini DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and supports up to four displays. To connect standard DisplayPort or HDMI monitors you will need Mini-DisplayPort adapters or cables (often included, but confirm your monitor connectors before setup).

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the NVIDIA RTX A400 a professional or gaming graphics card?
It is a professional NVIDIA RTX workstation GPU with 4GB GDDR6, built for ISV-certified 2D/3D CAD and accelerated professional applications — not a consumer gaming card. It drives up to four displays via Mini DisplayPort 1.4a.
Can I expand the memory and storage later?
Yes. It ships with 32GB DDR5-5600 (2× 16GB) across four UDIMM slots, expandable up to 128GB, and a 512GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. The tower chassis has room for additional drives and PCIe Gen 5 storage.
How many monitors can it drive?
The professional NVIDIA RTX A400 provides four Mini DisplayPort 1.4a outputs and supports up to four displays. You may need Mini-DisplayPort adapters to connect standard DisplayPort or HDMI monitors.
What is the difference between this and the RTX 5070 P2 Tower build?
This build uses a professional RTX A400 4GB with ISV-certified drivers, ideal for certified CAD. The RTX 5070 build uses a consumer GeForce GPU with 12GB GDDR7 for much higher raster, rendering and AI performance, but without professional certification. Choose based on whether you need certified drivers or raw GPU power.
Singular Expert Insight
This is the balanced professional pick in the P2 Tower range: a fast 20-core Ultra 7 265 with a certified RTX A400 GPU and 32GB of memory, ideal for 2D CAD, light 3D and multi-display professional work where ISV certification matters. If your projects are GPU-heavy (large 3D scenes, GPU rendering, AI), the consumer GeForce RTX 5070 build delivers far more graphics power for the money — at the cost of professional certification. If you need a smaller machine, the 1L ThinkStation P3 Tiny offers similar RTX A400 graphics in a compact form. For certified professional work with expansion headroom, this configuration is a sound choice.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You need certified professional graphics (RTX A400) with a 20-core Ultra 7 265 and 32GB DDR5 for CAD/design, plus vPro security and tower expandability.
Skip it if
You need heavy GPU rendering or AI performance — the entry A400 is limited; the RTX 5070 build offers far more power (without pro certification).
Also consider
The RTX 5070 / Ultra 7 265K P2 Tower for stronger GPU performance, or a ThinkStation P3 Tiny if a compact 1L footprint matters more.
