I have the laptop version 9955HX3D (which I believe is a 9950 with 2.5ghz base, 5.5 boost, and lower TDP) in a Legion Pro 7 and it's a fantastic chip for a computer that I can move around. 16 full cores in a laptop is a luxury and 64gb of ram has proven to be a wise choice prior to price spikes

Let's not discuss battery life and overall size, however it helps the thermals.

I do a lot of CPU bound engineering and scientific compute on the computer and it chews through it.

I also bought the entire computer for $2500+tax new from Microcenter in December and it's appreciated 25% in value since then.
