If AMD were to include an iGPU on their next line of consumer chips and also increase the clockspeed to match Intel's, how much of a price difference do you think we'll see? How much of Ryzen's price would you say comes from it being, on average, a full GHz shower than Intel CPUs and not having an iGPU?
I figure if they at least manage to manufacture a chip that equals the speeds of Intel's consumer lineup at the time, or at least the speeds they've gone with for Skylake and Kaby Lake (4GHz+) then we'll probably see a $20 price increase over what the equivalent Ryzen chip would be. So the 1500X's replacement would be $210 instead of $190. And honestly, I still don't think that's a necessarily bad price shift especially if they improve upon the IPC even further.
