Yes. I wont say why because i suggest reading at least the first couple amazon reviews. Very detailed pros and cons
If I had the option though, I'd get this. I have a MSI GE63 with a 9750h and that processor is simply put, a bad processor. This isn't about Intel vs AMD or whatever people want to make it out to be, it's just a fact. You'll never get the advertised speeds because it's constantly throttled due to heat. Google it, and you'll see tons of complains about the 9750h (which is honestly seems like a renamed 8750h). And big laptops, yeah, it sucks moving it from one place to another but most of the time, it's stationary so not a huge deal IMO.
You can get a hp omen with rtx 2070 for about the same price paired with i7 9xxx, granted the desktop grade cpu is more powerful and cooling is probably better with this, but man, im not sure if i want to be seen with this in a business meeting
