For what it's worth, my PC has a graphics card (3070 ti) and a processor (12700k) that both use more power than this build (on paper). I am unable to make the computer (not including monitor) use more than ~420 watts in any game or benchmark I have, although I suppose it could spike higher for very short intervals that don't show up on my power meter (computer tower is plugged directly into meter). I also don't overclock.
A 500w power supply with an 80% efficiency only produces 400 watts. So you basically just proved that it's not enough power.

No I didn't. Lenovo makes literally millions of computers, they know what they're doing. I was also comparing my relatively power hungry computer to this one. This processor uses about half the power of mine, and has a more efficient graphics card too.
I wouldn't recommend dropping $1200 on a pre-build with inadequate specs but to each their own.
