You have to lower the minimum graphics to play things like street fighter V and MK 11 with lower frame drop rate

it can handle programs really well, and so far, my usage of this processor is quite good. I can run android studio smoothly and can also play fps(shooting) games with it (no lag w/ right settings). Overall, it might not be the most powerful, but it can certainly handle tasks that require processing.

This processor has high consistency which can help you run games which can fit its requirements, but for higher performance, it is recommended to use the likes of Ryzen 5 3550H or Ryzen 7 3750H or even consider the 4th Generation Ryzen series. Other than that, one of the best budget processors from AMD. :)

It does really well for gaming, even though a lot of newer Intel processors outperform it.
