GPUs in AMD APUs are GCN-based since 2013/2014 (Jaguar/Steamroller with GCN2). Current Excavator-based APUs use GCN3-based GPUs, and announced (Q4/2017) Zen-based Ryzen Mobile (Raven Ridge) APUs are going to use GCN5-based Vega GPUs.

Only for APUs released in 2012/2013 (Piledriver) and earlier.

Q4/2017 doesn't sound too far away.

Yes, the Excavator-based A6-9550 with GCN3-based GPU.
