The Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU is relatively fast, even if it is not the latest AMD CPU generation (Zen 3+), but with a TDP of 45W it is somewhat power hungry for a laptop. The Radeon 680i iGPU runs older games reasonably well at FHD or the built in 1920×1200 display.
With this kind of laptop, I recommend booting it once, exporting the Windows license key just in case, and then installing a fresh, clean Windows 11 image directly from Microsoft along with drivers from the hardware manufacturers.
