[Off-Topic]
For games, I only played Portal 2 and I'd say at 1920x1080 with 2x or 4xAA, it came out pretty good. I do have other games that I have not played for a while and they are not very demanding. Even I get smooth frame rates in an old AMD A8-5700.
So yeah, I'm not planning to buy games that require a discrete graphics card. Not even games that I get horrible frame drops in high, but good frame rates in medium at 1920x1080. Last, but not least, I don't even care to give my money to Intel for their processors. AMD does have a very hard time struggling with IPC/single-threaded performance in the past few years, but I don't mind supporting AMD and do not care to know that Intel is always faster than AMD.
Because I've marked my post as [Off-Topic], let's get back into discussing Blender, shall we? I'm not here to turn this thread into Intel vs AMD processors as there are countless of them out there in the web.
