Best APU?

[愛と愛]

Comment but don't say 2400g. I have it. I'm interested on APUs now.

2400g. There are currently no better APUs available.

But why would you want an APU? If you want to do gaming and have the cash for the "best" AMD APU why not just get a GPU? A 1050 ti already has 2x the processing power a Vega 11 has.

I'm working on a small project right now. Making a small computer in a old laptop case it doesn't have much room for a big GPU.

2400G IS the best APU. You can't find a better one than it.
Of course, the 2nd best is 2200G.

The only other option should it fit, would be a low profile GT1030 card but this would only offer about a 15~20% improvement.

Would it fit if you used a PCI-E 90 Degree Right Angle Riser Card ?

Not much space. Even i removed CD DVD backplate to get CD DVD player inside. there is less space. GT 1030 is large.

Well if you can't squeze a GT 1030 low profile card in then its the 2400G as others noted or an external GPU, which is neither portable or cheap.

Thunderbolt nope. Motherboard doesn't have thunderbolt i just bought mini-ATX

There might be a solution...

I'm just doing some digging, I'm curious if there is a way to use a laptop MXM GPU with a desktop board, might be a possability, again if it is, it's going to be expensive.

NM, scrub this idea by the time you factor in a heatsink, it's going to be bigger than a GT1030 sadly.

I am pretty sure the Vega 11 will outperform all those MXM GPUs. Hasn't MXM been dead for quite a while already?

You can get 1070/80 MXM cards

The whole reason behind an APU (The AMD term for an AMD CPU with an iGPU) is not to use a dedicated GPU. The APU's have the high disadvantage of having only 8 lanes instead of 16.

Beside that. in Laptop case you need a dedicated sized motherboard. On those motherboards the CPU and GPU's are soldered directly to it. You cant just put desktop hardware into it. Neither can you simply fit a desktop motherboard or CPu into it.


And as others stated. The Ryzen 2400G is the best APU on the market as it is the newest AMD CPU with iGPU and the one with the best iGPU. The currently best Intel CPU with iGPU would be the 8700K while it has better CPU powers but a worse iGPU.

Xbox one X APU is actually the best.
Fresh install W10.

When talking about the integrated graphics chip; yes.

When talking about the CPU; no it gets obliterated by bascially everything.

You said you want to make very small PC?
Then just use 2400G + onboard Vega GPU
Why are you installing GT/GTX 1030

It has small room like 7 cm.
