    He also won't have touch and nothing is upgradeable. He also won't have Windows support as recent MacBooks don't have any usability due to extreme heat as Apple do not apply their software undervolt in bootcamp.
     
    You're looking for a unicorn basically. The reason is that you can't have a massive display with high Res and more than 5 hours of battery life. You also can't have 8 cores and not cook the laptop to death in a slim profile (just look at the MBP - the 8 core models have no boost and run pegged at 100 degrees and die off much faster as a result). Same reason why a good GPU is hard to fit.
     
    You also can't have portable and easily upgradeable.
     
    Like I said, the I lay thing even remotely close is the G15

    Asus Zephyrus G15 is basically the only thing that comes close to what you want.

    If you compare Intel vs AMD at the same pricepoint, Intel has a very very slight edge in single-threaded performance in the mainstream desktop space due to much higher clockspeeds, but this is lost as you move up in core count since Intel has to run their all core speeds lower than AMD due to poorer efficiency.  In multi-threaded, AMD is winning massively across the board.  Also keep in mind that most comparisons (aka anything above 9900k on the Intel side) ends up comparing Intel's HEDT to AMD's mainstream because that's how badly Intel is failing to keep up.  If you look at AMD's high end desktop (threadripper), it's completely in another league.
     
    A quick overview of the market:
    Same price: 3900x vs 9900k 9900k leads 5% in single-threaded 3900x leads over 40% in multi-threaded Same performance: 3900x vs 9920x 3900x: $500 9920x: $1200

    Given that you listed other things aside from gaming, the 3900x would be a better choice than the 9900k, and if you're ok with the budget and wait, the 3950x should be coming soon that's even faster.  Rendering and compiling will both be much faster, and you'll have a more modern platform you can, for example, use PCIe 4.0 drives on for greater performance while video editing.
