apu’s have come a long way, but bandwidth is still a bottleneck. they’re great for price-sensitive products like the steam deck, but dedicated gpus are necessary for performance. not sure why gaming apus aren’t more common in laptops/desktops, but maybe it’s due to upgradability concerns. the whole ram comparison thing is confusing, but mt/s and bus width are better metrics than mhz and channel numbers.
