If you are going to use a marketing buzzword like "APU" in the title, please do us a favour and explain what it means. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Accele

APU = "the marketing term for a series of 64-bit microprocessors from AMD..." Excuse me for not keeping up with the latest corporate-speak made-up BS.

Forgiven! And here's an explanation for others that doesn't require a new tab: APU = CPU + iGPU (on the same die) AMD CPUs contain no integrated graphics, so this makes the function of AMD's APU (c. 2011) branding similar to Intel's historical i-series (c. 2008). Don't ask me to explain Intel's current i-series branding, though. Apparently as of 2018, not all i3/i5/i7/i9s contain integrated graphics, so it's not quite as clear as AMD's "APU means on-die iGPU" is today.
