Intel 8th Gen laptop chips to support VR with dedicated GPU

At last laptops will be able to drive performance VR, by placing the dedicated GPU on the same package as the CPU. This should mean the physical wiring will be connected directly to the package enabling direct dedicated GPU output, avoiding the stutter problem of existing dedicated graphics being copied through the onboard video (as happens with Optimus etc, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15447198).

As a bonus this will also decrease the size and weight of dedicated gpu laptops :)
