Im trying to build a gaming pc, but no matter how many videos i check from LinusTech or Jayztwocents etc… i can’t seem to keep up or understand correctly. So here are things i can’t understand.
– How can i easily check and compare processors and how good they are? Is a I7 8750H 2.20GHz 8th generation and thus automatically worse than a 9th or 10th generation? Do i have to look at the GHz’s?
– In what way does a laptop differ from a pc? I know a 3070 for a laptop isn’t as strong as a 3070 for pc, but is the same thing true for processors? And how do i know how big that difference is, without looking up reviews and comparisons?
– What exactly does the amount of cores change in a laptop? If i want to use my laptop to stream, do i look at the cores, the ram or am i automatically good with a 9th gen and up?
I actually have a lot more questions, but if i can get these answered, id already be happy.
Thanks in advance

I always imagine a PC set up like a room, in which you are inviting people to come to and get some food/drink before leaving.
The size of the room is your hard drives, the bigger the more people it can hold.
The ram is the number and size of the doors, the bigger they are the more people at once can enter the room via the doors.
The CPU is the waiting staff serving your people. The more you have the faster they are served, the more experienced they are (i7, i9 etc) the better they are at serving multiple people, perhaps you don’t need so many of they are more experienced ….i9 2.2ghz Vs i5 3.5GHz
Not quite worked out the GPU….that could be the amount of art you are selling in the room…..but you get the idea.
So if you have massive doors but not enough staff you will get a backlog of orders. Similarly if you have dinky doors your staff might be hanging around not doing anything as only one person can enter the room…
I also use this site for comparisons…seems to give you some good benchmarks
