Definition

An APU is a type of processor that combines a central processing unit (CPU) and a graphics processing unit (GPU) onto a single chip. This integration aims to provide better performance and efficiency compared to separate components.

Why it matters (in Poovi’s context)

The AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 is an APU, and its performance is central to the comparison. The video explores how effectively it competes with dedicated CPUs and GPUs, especially in a thin-and-light form factor.
