There was no need. 1-2fps difference from what i saw.

I also dont think anyone buying a 400Eur CPU even care how igp is performing on it.

Why no section about KabyLake running hot under load and when overclocked?

I am getting ready to make a new build in a few months with my buddy and we are waiting for Ryzen and KabyLake reviews to come in to decide what platform to go with.

I'm very interested to see if Intel cheaped out on the TIM under the heatspreader like with Haswell because I don't want to de-lid, and I like it running cool.

Just surprised you didn't even mention it.

ASUS already tested many samples.

AVG will do 5ghz @ 1.29-1.35
