My main gaming rig (for admittedly not very intensive games) has been a 7000 series Ryzen APU with a 780M, and my next one will also be an APU. It makes zero economic sense to build a discrete CPU system for casual gaming, even if I believe that APU prices will be artificially inflated to "cozy up" to low-end discrete GPU prices for a while to maximize profits.

Which is why for the games I play, a graphics workstation laptop like Thinkpad P series is much more useful, including GPGPU coding outside gaming, without being an heavyweight circus laptop whose battery lasts half-hour.
