As my friends know, I have a peculiar fondness for testing the limits of low-grade hardware. For that reason, when AMD's Ryzen processors with Radeon Vega Graphics—better known as "the Ryzen APUs"—finally hit the market I was pretty eager to pick one up and play with it. Budget constraints left me unable to do so until just recently. One of my friends ended up with a spare Ryzen 3 2200G that she passed on to me to play with.

While I certainly appreciated the gesture, it seemed a bit of a waste at the time. I didn't have a motherboard to put it in, nor any RAM to use with it even if I did. DDR4 was (and is) still prohibitively expensive. ...
