Today I am finishing up a System Migration service from an older ThinkCentre computer that I sold to a customer many years ago to a ThinkCentre M75s with Ryzen 5 processor.
I have been pleasantly surprised with the ThinkCentre M75s model. I think the design and features are good. Performance is great with the Ryzen 5 (six cores, twelve threads) and it can also be upgraded to Ryzen 7, which I have done on this model for another customer.
The performance of the Ryzen processors is excellent!
The only real big downside to this model is that Lenovo and AMD have some kind of feature that locks CPUs to only Lenovo ThinkCentre computers after they are used in a ThinkCentre. So vendor lock on the CPU, which isn't cool.
