AMD has revealed the availability and local pricing of the company’s new second-generation A-Series Accelerated Processing Units (APUs).

The second-gen A-Series is targeted towards DIY PC builders and mainstream gamers, with higher speeds and easy upgrade paths based on the stable stock infrastructure.

AMD APU users will also gain access to the AMD AppZone, which gives a list of applications that can take advantage of and enhance the APUs themselves.
