yep, performance is great, I ordered it about a year ago - FHD screen and K2000 GFX, then added a Crucial 128GB SSD/16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM.
Avid qualified it while I was taking my ISIS ACSR certification in Burbank...several weeks after the purchase.
As for drivers, qualified or not, I did not notice any stability or speed issues with any of them. Currently running 320.49 with MC7, smooth as silk.

Thanks Bogdan!
That did the trick. I'm kind of surprised that there is no mention of a different driver version for laptops vs. desktops in the readme. It would also have been nice if Avid had included the laptop version in the Utilities folder.
Your brain is indeed bigger than mine. I am also on a W530, just getting started. Are you happy with the performance of the Lenovo?
Best,
