Actually PUBG requires both decent CPU and GPU

The only issues is that if he needs an ultraportable with a decent CPU, he'll have to pay 2-3x over for a 'slim' gaming laptop with a 9300H/9750H

Of course, the ultraportability also comes with issues such as thermal throttling

Normal ultraportables tend to have ULV CPUs which makes it not good for games, and the cooling might be sufficient for that load too

Most laptops will likely to throttle due to its thin form factor (unless you want to go the route of using liquid metal + undervolt)

Although the problem right now is some laptops won't even let you to do undervolting due to mitigation of Intel's Plundervolt vulnerability

Most laptops don't have good speakers anymore due to the unfortunate arms war on shaving as much z height as possible (which forces manufactures to use smaller speakers and removing things like subwoofers)

If you want laptops that have good speakers right now it's pretty much the realm of DTR laptops like the Clevo X170, or even old laptops like the legendary Dell L502X/Asus N55SF

Also the CPU may end up bottlenecking the GPU, considering most ultraportables have quite underpowered ULV CPUs
