How does it stack up vs a 2700X in gaming? How about a 3600 in gaming? I'm worried that by the time late 2020 rolls around this mobile chip will be equal to a $150-$200 desktop CPU. A.K.A. mid to low end weakness. 

A ryzen 5 3600 does ~19,062
A ryzen 7 2700x does ~20,100

A 4800H would be faster than either of these, by a small amount.

Giveing what we know, I attempted to do that for you :)

Amd 3700x = ~23,700
i7 - 9700k = ~18,650

going by the picture amd showed, that should put this 4800H cpu around ~20,600.
(if im not failing at the math of it)

source for numbers:  https://benchmarks.ul.com/hardware/cpu/Intel+Core+i7-9700K+Processor+review

So it would be 2.4% better than a 2700X, which is $217 right now on Amazon. Or around 8% better than a 3600. (According to these benchmarks that is. Real life scenarios could be very different.) IMO a 2600X is entry level, and anything worse than that is basically "WHY WOULD YOU BUILD A PC WITH THIS????" quality. On the GPU side, I would consider anything below a 1650S to be a bad GPU (At least if you bought it right now. IMO 580 8GB VRAM was good a year ago.) 

Anyway that puts the 4800H right around the upper midrange territory by today's standards in my opinion. By the time late 2020 rolls around that could be mid range. Or not. I don't know everything about CPUs yet. Anyway, it kind of worries me. I don't want a repeat of the base model PS4 and XB1, which launched as mid range machines. 

Edit: Again, this is if you built a brand PC with these parts today. IMO a $500 PC build is a total waste of money, and people really should spend enough to hit at least 60 FPS 1080p on a demanding game like Witcher 3 or Cyberpunk. Somebody with a PC they put together a few years ago is different. So I'm not trying to rag on anybody's old rig here.
