How does an APU work with a dedicated GPU

Just wondering. If you have an APU (I have a 7700k at work). What happens when you have a GPU installed? Does the graphics part of the APU switch off? Is it wasted? Does it do CPU calculations instead? Does it share workload with the GPU? Thanks.
 
so if it's often simply switched off. Why don't AMD make "pure" CPUs for us gamers who all have GPUs? I believe ZEN is also an APU?
