My last Lenovo Thinkpad was an utter disaster. Despite being a mid to mid-top of the line notebook for performance it was stuck with a critical flaw that frequently throttled the CPU down to .39 GHz. Apparently it was a well known bug with the thermal control software and the ultimate solution was just to replace it with another model from corporate IT.
Edit: The throttling would happen despite the CPU temperature being normal for average workloads. It certainly wasn't running at full power near 95°C and then slowing down to protect itself. We even tried providing increased airflow and a laptop cooling stand. It didn't help or make a difference on when it would drop down to throttling range. We tried all sorts of Windows power management settings, a few Lenovo power management apps, updating the firmware, and yet nothing helped.
