You are better off with starting your own laptop manufacturing if you want an AMD laptop.

Every. Single. Manufacturer. In existence hires autistic killer clowns from outer space to configure their AMD options. Personally I consider it a worldwide conspiracy by illuminati because it is physically impossible to accidentally bundle single channel memory with a bandwidth starved APU unless you are a reptiloid from Tau Ceti secretly governing the Earth from the shadows.

I have a 4-5 year old Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E525 that still works quite well. If I kept the graphics settings low, I would get good frame rates. And, I do believe it actually has dual channels for the memory, provided you get 2 memory modules.

I don't play EVE on it now that I have a desktop that I can crank up the graphics on, but I could run EVE on it again, if I wanted to.

So, I would think anything recent should be good.

Looks like they don't have them under the "Edge" series anymore, but these are pretty similar to what I have:
