APU is the abreviation of "Accelerated Processing Unit". Basically it's a CPU with something else, usually a GPU, so when you buy 1 APU you are actually getting a CPU and a GPU all in 1 package. When he says that he will pair it with an HD6670 it is because APUs can be used in conjuction with a graphics card. Now, some GPUs (and I think the one in the HD6670 is one of them), are so similar to the one inside the APU that you can enable Crossfire with them, getting more performance. |
Ah, so it is sorta similar to back in the day when mobos had onboard video (but were shithouse).
This APU, I am guessing would have a decent GPU in it but guessing not as highend as a gfx card.
Since its AMD, would it be safe to say it be one of their old gfx card GPUs integrated into the one chip?
Are APUs good enough to play highend games on their own? if so on what setting in the game and approx frame rate? i.e. the high intensive graphics games like crysis and battlefield
