That laptop is not “high-end”. i7 processor, standard (not 4K) screen resolution, Intel graphics.

I also have a thinkpad, and it gives me no end of issues, presumably largely due to the Nvidia GPU. There are also some weird non-GPU-related quirks; for example, charging over USB-C sporadically stops working (requiring an unplug and re-plug of the cable), especially when the battery is low.

Ny X1 has lasted for 3+ years of really hard use and only really has issues due to my own fiddling with clocks. It also has weird TB3 eGPU issues but thats nearly every laptop with a dedicated gpu and TB3, which are a pretty small list surprisingly. Took a 64gb upgrade easily, and raid nvme with ease.
