If i were to purchase, for examples sake, a 3570k from intel...
-would it work together with my discrete GPU like the amd A-series?
-would the area of the processor that dedicates itself towards graphics be in complete hibernation if paired with a discrete gpu--A card no doubt superior such as the AMD 6950 or 7850
... to the point. what is the point of "upgrading" a gaming computer to this new architecture with what seems like a completely useless section of the CPU? Why not just by a non-APU and a discrete card? Benefits? Do they work together? Thanks! I've tried looking this up elsewhere with no definitive answers.
