Intel actually bought AMD Radeon GPUs for their Hades Canyon (Kaby Lake G) platform. It was a NUC mainboard with a full Intel platform, combined with an AMD Radeon GPU. The Intel CPU and the GPU (including HBM2 memory for the GPU) was all on one package soldered to the mainboard.
I think they did a couple of follow ups on that as well, because it worked very well.

Interesting. What a strange companionship. :)
There was a time when you could have a platform that ran with components from all 3. Intel CPU, AMD GPU, and nvidia’s nForce chipset on the mobo.
