I do still find it weird how Ryzen is managing P-states from what you've told me. It's not a loss entirely WRT power management and efficiency though. Outside of heavy AVX2/512 workloads, you still beat anything short of a 12th Gen i7 around the block for performance per watt, which is what usually matters when it comes to power consumption.
Furmark was a rec for "black screen" RX 480 anon though? If his GPU is failing, Furmark won't be very happy. If it's his power supply, the CPU being at ~0% will likely be enough for his PSU to not shit the bed and allow Furmark to run with no issues. It's not a hard science, barring a PSU tester, multimeter and a deathwish, etc. I've had PSUs that were fucked enough that running Linpack was enough to hard reboot the PC as soon as the AVX routines kicked in. IntelBurnTest? I forgot which implementation it was. Probably LinX 0.6.5. Prime95 supports AVX now. Man, 2011-2012...
>By default, Prime95 automatically selects the newest instruction set extension, such as AVX, AVX2, or even AVX-512. In order to change this behavior, Prime95 needs to be started and completely shut down again once. This will create the local.txt file. In it, exclusions are assigned a value of 0, whereas the code path that’s to be tested is assigned a value of 1. If you aren’t clear as to which SSE version is supported by your CPU, both can be set to 1. Prime95 will choose the correct fallback.

No red nipple, no good. Lenovo doesn't really make any laptops worth buying other than a T, W (do they still make it?) or X.
NGL any laptop is fine if all you care about is reducing NASFAQ power consumption, especially if you already have the thing.
I haven't kept up with modern ThinkPads, but there were some immediate post-Lenovo models, like the ThinkPad SL400/500, that had more in common with an IdeaPad than a ThinkPad. They still had the IBM style over 9000 replacement parts/FRUs available and excellent service manuals. Once you were inside one it was clearly still a ThinkPad. But the hinge FRU was dogshit. And it was yucky glossy plastic.
t. moonlit maintaining a deployment of like 200+ laptops between school years, second fiddle to the IT guy, who unironically got me my job as a teacher in the first place. replaced a few dozen ThinkPad hinges during undergrad for multiple steak dinners and a Benjamin or two -> started teaching that August. Truly one of my bro-est bros. Find you a NASFAQ bro like that.
neways ThinkPads are thread culture. Because cypher's thinkpad. And originally bento box inspired design, hwy not.

Cyberpunk motif could still work. Think more Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex and less totalitarian regime. It is ruled from the shadows by the one and only picrel.

You may not like it, but this is how peak performance looks.
