My bad, when iGPU were first announced, GT 1030 is barely two years old as mentioned in the article.

Anyway having iGPU inside an entry level Intel's CPU with a potential of 32 GB of RAM is amazing. The performance is probably not that far off from my old high end Asus ROG gaming laptop that I bought in 2014 with Nvidia GTX 700 series GPU.

The laptop with the entry level iGPU will probably cost less than 20% of the original ROG laptop but now can supports up to three 4K monitors!

If Asus can resurrect their infamous Netbook series laptop or cheap laptop lines with these new entry level CPUs with iGPU I bet it can sell them like hot cakes.
