All the games benchmarked by Michael in this article performed better with the more powerfull dedicated GPUs then with the built-in GPU, so they are all clearly GPU bound. And "World of Padman" is deffinatly not a very "shader intensive" game and still went from 221 FPS with the onboard GPU to 350 FPS with the GTX 550 while using the same CPU.
All games perform better with a more powerful CPU; all using the same GPU.

I don't know about AMD, but even a 680GTX will idle at under 20W, so if I needed more than an embedded GPU, I'd still go for an intel CPU and a dedicated GPU. You don't earn much by shutting off the dedicated GPU and switching to the on-chip one.

You're curious about the setup, I can accept that. But I just don't buy AMD's talk that CPU power has ceased to matter right where they started failing to compete.
Still, I'd rather PRIME with the features of Lucid Virtu MVP as opposed to crossfire, ultimately.
