Edit: Btw, the integrated graphics on the Intel chips is miles behind the graphics in the AMD APUs so you would definitely need a dedicated GPU if you went with an i5 |
yeah i know and agree, i played on my i3's GPU for a while (even though games like LOL and Game Dev Story actually worked well), however if you need a PC only for CPU heavy stuff, i still recommend the i5 standalone versus any APU from AMD right now.
(on a side note, Intel IRIS graphics seem to be quite promising.)
edit: the term GPGPU is unfamiliar to me, is it this Hybrid Crossfire thing where you pair an APU with a Graphics card? THats a cool thing indeed, i confess. (i guess i need to check some benchmarks before commenting any further. only thing is that the selection of GPU's seems to be fairly limited.)
