This APU is perfect for the home office. The APU combines the CPU and GPU in a single chip, eliminating the need for a graphics card. This APU uses your system's 2GB of RAM for graphics memory (unless you're using a graphics card), so make sure you have enough RAM for the build. If a graphics card is installed and no monitor is connected to the APU motherboard connector, all system memory is available. This chip can easily be overclocked to around 4GHz if the voltage is increased to around 1.4V. Although a standard heatsink is included, I installed a larger heatsink that I already had for near-silent operation. It works well with 3200MHz ddr4 in XMP profile, but probably doesn't benefit much from faster than 2666MHz RAM. Out of curiosity, I tried to run some tests and games. It's capable of running new games at almost 60 fps at 720p on low settings. If you want to play games with this APU, spend $40 on eBay for a used graphics card and you'll get 6x to 7x better gaming performance.
