    Please yes. The average person doesn’t need an insane graphics card, if they can make an APU that’s affordable it’ll fly off the shelves.

      That would make a nice Linux-based gaming PC for my kids that is for sure.

        I meant, being devil’s advocate, you’re paying for a CPU, GPU and RAM in a single purchase. These things would be a MiniPC without the motherboard and connectors.

        The middle one is a similar kind of configuration to my Mac studio, and if you were to put this APU in an actual build it only comes out a little cheaper so the pricing tracks.

      I’m at the point where I am only interested in handheld gaming.

      The only reason I’d buy a dedicated gpu these days is to run AI stuff locally.
