No PC gamer worth their salt would use onboard GFX so why market it at them? The only place I see the ‘Sandy Bridge’ being good and onboard GFX being useful is on laptops and tablet PCs.
The frustrating Intel Raptor Lake CPU issues continue to make their presence known, this time in the South Korean gaming community.
It seems that some PC fans are already getting their hands on the 14th Gen CPUs, with images showing off the box appearing on Intel Sub-Reddit. The image,
A retailer in the US by the name of CentralComputers may have just accidentally leaked the pre-order date, time, and release date for Intel's upcoming 14th-generation CPUs.
please get the power usage from this gen down because its just not practical.
I'm really debating if I should upgrade when this comes out. I have an i5-9600k now, but it is really not keeping up with the games I want to play since everything seems to be CPU limited now. But it sounds like this is the last gen of this layout and 15th gen will shake things up. Do I jump in and upgrade when this is out or wait another generation?

For gaming yeah. Unless you have a small budget for whatever reason, and can't/won't spend the extra dollar on a video card. Hell, most on board chip sets these days can run a lot of the games out there just fine. Coupled with a few gigs of memory and a good(cheap) processor like the 2600k and you're set.
A large part of building a computer is the options you have before you. Pay a few extra dollars(or save a few depending on what board you want)and get that mobo with on board video. When your budget frees up a little, get that nice video card. It's great when you don't have a lot of cash on hand when building a new computer(or upgrading).
