Its no surprise. AMD was going into this direction anyway. Once the mainmemory has the same or greater bandwith than PS4 has we will see APUs that put PS4 to shame. CPU and GPU becoming one is the future.

Is it the future though? PC Gaming is dominant on desktops last time I checked. This technology seems aimed stuff like laptops. Like Soleron said, this isn't starting a revolution. They're hardly in the position to be that influential. This is pretty revolitionary tech for a console though. Sony couldn't have made a better decision with the tech in the PS4.

Its for Laptops now but if Main ram bandwith increases alot through stacking for example its possible to pair a strong GPU with a strong CPU. HSA has an efficency and cost advantage. It just won't replace the highest end but I can easily see it being an option for mid end Desktops. Intel definetly will push it too.
