Intel is not abandoning the low PC market... they are focusing in all markets.

And Inte have cheaper APUs too... you know.

nope, intel does not have APUs.

There is no intel equivalent to AMD's APU aside from separate GPU/CPUs

APU is just a name... APUs exists years ago.

Intel have APUs... in fact Intel have a lot of CPU + GPU together... some Ivy Bridge CPUs are APUs.

Eg.

Core i3-3225
Сore i3-3220
Pentium G2120
Pentium G2020
Celeron G1620

There are more.

 

What I mean is that intel's onboard gpu is far below what amd provides.
An AMD APU can subsist rather sufficiently without a gpu, whereas a sandy or ivy bridge has a lot of trouble with graphical computation.
It's like old onboard (mobo) video cards with intel. Those old Intel HD5XXXX xTreme onboards that were pretty much just there to connect to a monitor.
