Offered pretty much same performance as i7-9700K but without ability to OC and has lower base clock and all-core boost clock. Would opt to buy i7-9700K instead because this CPU is priced same as the OC-able counterpart. [Oct '19 ColdSpy]

MORE DETAILS

It's good for a budget laptop around $900~1200. i5 is very suitable for most games. But will not able to handle modern 3D games more than 120fps with GPU that comes with laptop such as GTX 1650/Ti/MaxQ. I would recommend getting i7-9750H, as it has 2 more cores for multitasking and has better CPU options such as GTX1660ti and GTX1070 [Apr '21 Gamejang]
