AMD have some CPUs with GPUs as well (APUs, right now you'd look at |
| 16 |
the A-series like A4, A6, etc), and they are currently very good. The |
| 17 |
drivers aren't as good of quality but the hardware is better, and you |
| 18 |
will still get more out of them than Intel. That, and they are also |
| 19 |
cheaper. |

Still, depends on what you plan on doing with the GPU. |
