APU ==== {{:items:apu0.png?nolink&128}}{{:items:apu1.png?nolink&128}} An APU (or Accelerated Processing Unit) is a combination of a [[item:cpu|CPU]] and [[item:graphics_card|Graphics card]], and functions in exactly the same way as having both components individually. The benefit of the APU is that it frees up an expansion slot where a [[item:graphics_card|Graphics card]] would normally be, allowing for the use of other expansion cards. The APU (tier 1) is crafted using the following recipe: * 1 x [[item:cpu|CPU (tier 2)]] * 1 x [[item:graphics_card|GPU (tier 1)]] * 4 x Gold nugget * 1 x [[item:component_bus|Component Bus (tier 1)]] * 2 x [[item:materials|Microchip (tier 1)]] {{:recipes:items:t1apu.png?nolink&200}} The APU (tier 2) is crafted using the following recipe: * 1 x [[item:cpu|CPU (tier 3)]] * 1 x [[item:graphics_card|GPU (tier 2)]] * 4 x Diamond * 1 x [[item:component_bus|Component Bus (tier 2)]] * 2 x [[item:materials|Microchip (tier 2)]] {{:recipes:items:t2apu.png?nolink&200}} Contents ----------- {{page>item:contents&noheader&noeditbutton&nouser&nofooter}}
