AMD also makes the A-Series APU's with processor graphics. http://www.amd.com/en-us/products/processors/desktop/a-series-apu CPU Support List: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=5260 If you look in the List in the GPU Frequency column you'll see N/A for the Athlon X4 860K as it has no graphics.
