If you need a new workstation with modern hardware and a nice display, the Lenovo ThinkPad P16v Gen 2 is easy to recommend despite not being perfect. The Core Ultra 7 155H can maintain respectively high clocks even in longer loads – 2.52 GHz / 2.65 GHz / 1.85 GHz for the P, E, and LP E cores respectively. The only downside here is the whooping-high CPU temperature of 101°C. Of course, in idle or under normal stress, the CPU thermals are lower. However, you can use the “Balanced” preset that still offers pretty high frequencies and sub-90°C chip temperatures alongside tamed fans. The keyboard doesn’t feel scorching hot even when the CPU is pounded with heavy stress and in this scenario, the fans aren’t too noisy. The port selection is modern – two Thunderbolt 4s plus HDMI 2.1 and an SD Express 7.0 card reader.

The ThinkPad P16v Gen 2 delivers an exceptional balance of power, portability, and professional features. While it doesn’t quite match the raw performance of the P16, its lighter build and price point make it an excellent choice for professionals on the move who need a reliable machine.

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.
In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.
In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.
With these GPUs you are able to play modern and demanding games fluently at medium detail settings and HD resolution.
NVIDIA Nvidia RTX 1000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: A lower-end professional graphics card for use in laptops that sports 2,560 CUDA cores and 6 GB of GDDR6 VRAM. It would be fair to say that this is a GeForce RTX 4050 (Laptop) in disguise; consequently, both are powered by the AD107 chip and are fast enough to handle most games at 1080p with quality set to High. The product was brought into existence in February 2024. It leverages TSMC's 5 nm process and the Ada Lovelace architecture; the Nvidia-recommended TGP range is very wide at 35 W to 140 W leading to bizarre performance differences between different systems powered by what is supposed to be the same graphics card.
NVIDIA NVIDIA RTX 2000 Ada Generation Laptop GPU: A mid-range professional graphics card for use in laptops that sports 3,072 CUDA cores and 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM. It would be fair to say that this is a GeForce RTX 4060 (Laptop) in disguise; consequently, the former is powered by the same AD107 chip as the latter, and is fast enough to handle any triple-A game at 1080p with Ultra quality settings. The product was brought into existence in 2023. It leverages TSMC's 5 nm process and the Ada Lovelace architecture; the Nvidia-recommended TGP range is very wide at 35 W to 140 W leading to bizarre performance differences between different systems powered by what is supposed to be the same graphics card.

16.00:
This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
