{{As of|2015|2}}, only AMD's "Kaveri" A-series APUs (cf. [[List of AMD Accelerated Processing Unit microprocessors#"Kaveri" (2014, 28 nm)|"Kaveri" desktop processors]] and [[List of AMD Accelerated Processing Unit microprocessors#"Kaveri" 2014, 28 nm|"Kaveri" mobile processors]]) and Sony's [[PlayStation 4]] allowed the integrated GPU to access memory via version 2 of the AMD's IOMMU. Earlier APUs (Trinity and Richland) included the version 2 IOMMU functionality, but only for use by an external GPU connected via PCI Express.{{Citation needed|date=June 2016}}
