the cpu and ram might not appear in msi afterburner since it's an apu, but the gpu max clock is 1067, so most of that speed will be visible. it could also be due to how lenovo connected the ram chips—ram behavior in laptops can be unpredictable and confusing.

This benchmark shows what I received. The memory controller clock is around 800 MHz, which matches my RAM speed. I don’t think it’s a hardware problem since the issue happened immediately—my PC didn’t restart, and even after launching the latest AMD software, the RAM clock stayed at 800 MHz. A moment ago it was 2300, then it capped back at 800 MHz. I understand this could cause problems over time, as my laptop has been with me for three months and is now failing.

I don't think it's dead, just that the GPU memory clock was set to 800.
Software available below:
https://www.cpuid.com/downloads/cpu-z/cpu-z_2.15-en.exe
Check the GPU with this tool to see what the review says they use for measurement.

GPU-Z is a simple program that provides details about your graphics card and GPU.

Are you certain it reached 2300, which might have been the GPU clock instead of RAM speed?

You can see from the notebook tech that they also had 800.

The issue isn't the VRAM clock speed since its maximum is 1000, but rather the RAM acting as a bottleneck for the entire system.

I think that too, it's included in the curse with Apus.
I've used them for years, but software can sometimes misinterpret things.
Try testing different games and ensure your adrenaline software is completely current.
