I'm just glad that there are USB-A ports.

p14s g4 says HDMI 2.0, while their psref says HDMI 2.1

Why is it so hard for Lenovo to tell us what we are buying with clarity?

What's wrong with these AMD chips that we only get 1x USB4 port?

Are they not native ports? Too few PCIe lanes?

I keep waiting for Lenovo to offer a proper Ryzen workstation, but a single USB 4 port isn't enough. It's got to carry 4x4k DisplayPort streams and all the USB/eGPU/10G ethernet/NVMe stuff I may potentially want in the future.

The two 4k streams are nearly 40Gbps on their own.
