Very long story short. The catalyst was ofc a windows update that went through over night.

Reinstalled entire windows. Twice. First time I made the mistake of reinstalling lenovo software that came with laptop (battery controll etc) that caused together with windows complete freeze when plugging AC adapter in. (Because it put laptop in high performance mode which froze everything)

Second time I said fuck that and made sure I download the required drivers manually from AMD and Nvidia. And avoid Lenovo software all together. So far so good.

But fuck that windows update that broke everything to begin with. Lost my entire harddrive on a laptop not even 6 months old.
