You all are asking the wrong questions!

The only interesting question is: How long are the late game turn times in Civ VI with the largest map and CPU civs maxed? (With my current computer from 2013 we are talking of many minutes per turn).

Personally have had a Ryzen 7 1800x since release. However, recently, I upgraded to a 3900x. Never understood the whole intel fanboying thing. Just get what's best for you. Once it goes in, I really don't care who made it, as long as it's doing what I need it to do.

Anecdote =/= representative sample .... 

As far as Steam is concerned, 720p doesn't exist to them ... 

@Bold Show me otherwise since all evidence points to AMD APUs having the highest gaming performance. Even Intel's best solution is using AMD's Vega M graphics ... 

Those people who dropped in a discrete GPU with an APU obviously made the wrong choice since their build isn't optimal for high gaming performance ... (they make the intention of sacrificing their foundation for flexibility anyways)

720p isn't applicable for measuring CPU performance anymore since NO high-end gamers play at that resolution so reviewers should find something else better to benchmark because otherwise they may as well be pointlessly scraping the bottom of the barrel by testing with resolutions such as 480p or even 144p ...

720p could have relevance for low-end graphics performance but that's the end of it ... 

It's not Ancedotal. I am not going to list all 230~ monitors from Newegg. (Verses 4x for 1280x720.)
But you are more than free to look it up yourself if you think I am lieing.

1366x768 is generally regarded as "720P class" resolution, which is represented in the Steam statistics that I provided prior.

I never stated that AMD didn't have the highest graphics performance out of all integrated graphics? So no evidence necessary.

An absolutely irrelevant argument. Their choice isn't our business, they still made it.

Nah. For the reasons I alluded to prior. An extra datapoint isn't a bad thing.

The ~230 monitors pale in comparison to the thousands of other options out there that aren't 720p ... 

I didn't claim that you're lying but I am saying that you're statements thus far aren't representative of the gaming population ... 

768p is a common laptop resolution but it's not a common desktop resolution which makes it irrelevant for our purposes of trying to compare desktop CPUs ... 

You aren't paying attention to the benchmarks, AMD's higher integrated graphics performance in those cases actually translates to higher gaming performance ...

Intel's higher CPU performance on the other hand isn't ... 

Their choice also isn't relevant to high-end gaming benchmarks so their making a compromise anyway ... (even Intel has compromise options so the CPU performance of APUs isn't anything special) 

An extra datapoint doesn't necessarily mean it's a useful datapoint ... 

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.

Not in all CPU bound scenarios at 720P.

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.

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.

Probably best to let the argument go, peoples views are strong and hard to shift. Respect and move on or it just goes on and on.

*Insert wrong opinion*

@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 ... 

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 ... 

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

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 ... 

14.73% of polled Steam users have a 720P class panel.
That is widespread enough that it matters, that is more than 4k or 1440P users to put things into perspective.

14.73% against 90~ million monthly active users is 12.6~ million monthly users with a 720P~ class panel, that's not insignificant.

Exactly my damn point. - But it takes awhile for steam statistics to represent change in hardware, people don't throw away their old PC because a new GPU got released you know.

Take a look at the GPU page, there are users still running Radeon 7800~ class GPU's.

Well no. I don't have to do a thing.
Newegg already represented a large amount of 720P panels still being sold. And that is just today.

The fact that portable systems also get bundled with 720P panels doesn't negate that and would also still be a demographic who might be interested in 720P benchmarks anyway, making your argument redundant.

Are you paying attention? CPU. Not GPU. Some games are going to be more CPU limited than others, especially strategy titles.

Almost 15% of the Steam userbase.

Doesn't matter how many people there are, it is still useful to some, don't go shifting the goal post.
