Intel's integrated graphics suck compared to igpu in the Ryzen G cpus.

Interesting development.
AMD had always been lagging Intel transistor process size, but I just Googled and AMD is now at 5nm while Intel is at 10nm.
From what I'm reading, AMD is more power efficient under load, while Intel is more efficient under idle conditions.
I'll have to reconsider my component picks for the next build. That said, I have a need for efficient h.264 and h.265 encoding/decoding, and Intel's QuickSync is designed to handle that in an efficient way. My requirements are mostly that, and efficient idling. Would be nice to have the option to game, but that represents a small percentage of 24/7 operation.
