Ryzen 7 PRO 7735U vs Ryzen 9 5980HX: which one fits your build

The Ryzen 7 PRO 7735U suits mainstream desktop builds and everyday productivity, though it is the wrong buy for extreme overclocking (unless K/X-series) and workstation-class multi-threaded workloads. Take the Ryzen 9 5980HX for desktop-replacement gaming laptops wanting AMD's absolute strongest mobile Zen 3 performance without HS-tier power constraints. It is not the one for buyers wanting a thin, portable gaming laptop, the HS-tier chips are specifically built for thinner chassis designs.
