which of these 2 machines do you think that videostudio 2019/20 will work faster on:
amd Ryzen 7 4800h or

Can you wait and see how PCs with the new AMD Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 series mobile processors shape up?

If you can't wait then VS's general performance would benefit from the CPU with the highest Turbo Speed which is the Intel Core i7-10875H (5.1 vs 4.2 GHz). However, the laptop's cooling may not be sufficient to fully leverage the Turbo Speed. You need to find some reviews that look at the performance of the laptop as a whole not just at the individual components.

Finally, is VS the only program that you'll be running? If not then the AMD Ryzen 7 4800H laptop should better at running multi-threaded workloads than those with the Intel Core i7-10875H.

I can't offer any help between those processors, but I upgraded to a Lenovo Legion laptop a little less than a year ago, and the performance improvement in VS was enormous. I used to only run larger renders over night but now they must be five times faster.

vs website says there is an intel hardware accelerator
how much difference does it make when switched on and if this is not an option for amd then im guessing that intel probably will be faster anyway?

just upgraded to lenovo legion 5 i7 10750h with gtx 1660ti and its not faster!
maybe you can tell me what settings i need to change?

I'm probably a pretty basic user and I think my settings are pretty "vanilla" out of the box, but I'm attempting to attach a Word file with screen shots of the settings in "Preferences", and from a typical render screen. When I upgraded to my Lenovo Legion laptop everything in VS got way faster. Initial load, viewing in the editor is much smoother, and renders take a fraction of the time.

What were your system specs before you upgraded?
Are the project properties and length the same as before?

Projects are very similar to what I was doing on the previous system, using still photos, video from a Panasonic Lumix FZ-47 and a GoPro Hero Black 7, mostly 30 fps.
Previous system specs:
Hewlett-Packard HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC
Windows 8.1 (x64) (build 9600)
2.50 gigahertz AMD A10-5750M APU with
AMD Radeon HD 8650G Graphics
192 kilobyte primary memory cache
4096 kilobyte secondary memory cache
Multi-core (4 total)
Not hyper-threaded
Terabyte conventional hard drive
12 GB memory

You should compare the VS Preference settings on your old computer to those on your new computer. If they are identical and rendering performance hasn't significantly improved then the issue is probably with your computer and OS configuration. Try running the Windows System Assessment Tool (WinSAT) on both the old and new systems and compare the results, i.e. CPUScore, DiskScore, GraphicsScore, and MemoryScore. Your new system should have much higher scores.

You should be seeing a significant increase in rendering performance with the Core i7-10750H compared to your old AMD A10-5750M APU. Apart from VS, does your new computer have better performance? If your new computer doesn't seem any faster in general, then you ought to have a look at your Windows performance settings such as:

1. Processor Scheduling should be set to Programs
2. Power Plan set to High Performance.
