So, the title says it, but I was wondering if I actually need the RAM to be dedicated to the APU. I don't use the GPU in the APU, I have a dedicated GPU, so I am wanting to know if it would break anything if I dedicate nothing to it.
If you have a dedicated GPU, then just uninstall the drivers for the GPU cores in your APU and the APU will work the same as any CPU. As long as you have enough system memory to support whatever tasks it is you're doing, you don't need to worry. As for gaming, that's really dependent on how much vram your video card has.
