Errrr... Did you miss the part where I stated that 720P panels used to be more popular in the low-end than they are today? Steam statistics does not reflect the current hardware being sold on shelves, it reflects all hardwar that has been sold and currently in use irrespective of era.

Honestly thought you would have understood that.

768P used to be a common desktop resolution in low end TN panels. - The fact that there are hundreds of 768 panels currently on sale on newegg USA is exactly reinforcing that particular idea.

@Bold You know that's a patronizing statement so that needs to stop and objectively speaking 720p is NOT currently in widespread use according Steam statistics ... 

768p USED to be a common desktop resolution but there's only ~200 or so monitors supporting that resolution that are currently being sold on newegg in comparison to over a thousand laptops that support 768pare being sold over there ... 

You'd have to go through the extra length to prove that those 768p steam users are mostly on desktop systems rather than portable systems like laptops ...

Not in all CPU bound scenarios at 720P.

Again, you aren't paying attention to benchmarks. Nearly all of Anandtech's IGP tests were at 720p and the 2400G wipes the floor against EVERY pure Intel parts ... 

Gamers on integrated graphics need not be worried about their CPU performance being a limiting factor, it is their GPU performance that they need to be concerned about ...

And yet... They still going to make that choice and yet... They are still consumers... And yet, the benchmarks presented will be palatable to such a demographic.

That demographic must be extremely tiny or nonexistent in practice ...

See above. Clearly it use useful to some. Just because it's not useful to you, doesn't mean it's not useful to others.

If you can show that there are a sizable portion of users pairing low-end CPUs with high-end GPUs then it might become a useful datapoint but otherwise it's just speculation ...
