Gaming index (Ryzen 7 9800X3D = 100) against the processors closest to it.
The Core i7-10750H scores 38 on our gaming index, where the Ryzen 7 9800X3D is 100. That puts it #111 of 238 processors we track, in D tier. It is an older or entry level chip. Fine for light games and mid-range cards, but a fast graphics card will often wait on it.
It has 6 cores and 12 threads, boosting to 5 GHz. Six cores is enough for almost every game, though it is the minimum you want for new releases.
The Core i7-10750H uses the BGA socket, which means it is soldered to a laptop or mini PC board and cannot be upgraded.
It is rated at 45 W. That is low enough for small cases and quiet builds.
At 1080p, where the processor matters most, the Core i7-10750H can feed a card up to the Radeon RX 6750 XT before it starts to hold the card back by more than 10 percent. At 1440p the limit moves to the GeForce RTX 4080 Laptop. At 4K, where the card does most of the work, it can keep up with the GeForce RTX 5080. The full list of graphics cards for the Core i7-10750H has the options for each resolution.
The Core i7-10750H is fine for older games, light titles and a modest card, but it will hold back a newer mid-range card.
