Hi, I'm sort of new till the pc community and the tech community and I have seen some old videos from 2014-2015 about AMds apus. They seem Like a realt good budget option instead of a gpu. Why don't we se anything about apu now a days? What happened with them? All response am I greatfull for.

an 860k and a 100$ gpu is just a better value then than an APU.

Is it so? How much dose a apu cost now a days!

They are still a good budget option for someone who doesn't play intensive games or someone who will upgrade to a gpu in the future. Don't buy a $100 gpu, the lowest end gpu worth buying is the 750ti at about 125-150$. Anything less than the 750ti is still in APU territory.

 

With an APU you can game most things at 720p and things like LOL on 1080.

by 100 i did mean a 750 ti, if you look you'll find it. yes it costs more but again its simply a better value for a little more money.

Ok is it worth to have a apu in hypc that you just is going to use for some easy gaming?

[Atlant]

he just answered you that its better value for the money to have a 750ti + cheaper cpu instead

apus had now the chance to be the go to choice for 4k home theater pcs, but they didnt take it, so now they lost even this part of the market share.

apu is dead
