    I don’t know what your use-case is, but as I’ve said before, you should look into these Thinkpad models:

    2018:

    • P52s
    • P52
    • P72
    • P1 Gen 1
    • X1 Extreme Gen 1

    2019:

    • P53s
    • P53
    • P73
    • P1 Gen 2
    • X1 Extreme Gen 2

    2020:

    • P15 Gen 1
    • P15s Gen 1
    • P15v Gen 1
    • P17 Gen 1
    • P1 Gen 3
    • X1 Extreme Gen 3

    All of them have the option of GPU. Make sure to ask for the relevant machine type or part number to validate if they really have what’s inside of them - use that information to check on PSREF. Try to get at least a hexacore PC with more than or equal to 16GB of RAM. Avoid soldered RAM if possible - some of the newer ones that I’ve mentioned have them - because that way, you’ll end up having to use RAM in Flex mode.
