Really Looking to move to an AMD Thinkpad but don't love the configurations

buying my fist thinkpad
If you have a desktop, you're better off using that for games/3D modeling. Thinkpads make poor gaming PC's. The only current Thinkpad I think is worth considering for gaming is the P16/T16g Gen3 with 12GB or more of VRAM (and if it were my money I'd get no less than 16GB), but these laptops are a pa
