How can APU be as powerful as a dedicated mid to high end video card? Wouldn't it make sense to replace all video cards with APUs then?

Because not everyone wants to game with an AMD cpu which is still way weaker than an Intel or full fledged AMD CPU clocked over 2 GHz, it would also require different motherboards etc. There is no market *yet* to make whole APUs as upgradable components in the PC space.

Yet is the keyword.

I think once hybrid memory cube tech can be used as system memory, amd would be crazy not to release a APU thats about as beefy as the RX 480.

A quad Zen Cpu + RX 480, APU with new memory technology for system ram would be pretty nice.
