Although the article states that this model supports PCIe 5.0 connectivity for SSD drives, Lenovo's technical specifications indicate that the motherboard only supports the 4.0 standard. It is strange that 5.0 drives can be requested for higher-end versions, but in reality, these are also connected to the system with 4.0 standard.

Max Storage Support[1]: Up to two M.2 2280 Gen 5 Performance SSD; up to 8TB, 4TB each
Storage Slot[2]: Two M.2 2280 PCIe® 4.0 x4 slots

What about the mass storage performance?
In addition, it appears that it is better to just get the Yoga Pro 9i with a better screen for almost half the money. I dont really see what value we get for an additional USD2,000

Quotemaximum of 64 GB RAM

I agree, if this is the successor to the Extreme, how come it only supports up to 64 GB RAM. With 96 GB RAM, Gpt-Oss-120b (with almost full context*) or GLM-4.5-Air (quant) could be run.

* = go to huggingface.co/spaces/oobabooga/accurate-gguf-vram-calculator, paste huggingface.co/unsloth/gpt-oss-120b-GGUF/blob/main/gpt-oss-120b-F16.gguf into the calculator, set context to full and see the required RAM size.

Also, only 8 GB VRAM for 4500 bucks? Imagine what kind of desktop PC one could build for this sum + getting a much cheaper laptop with still 8 GB VRAM.
