In theory the APU2 may run slightly cooler... APU1 -> AMD G-T40E (6.4W at 1.0 GHz) clocked at 1.0 GHz
APU2 -> AMD GX-412TC (6W at 1.2 GHz) clocked at 1.0 GHz The GX-412TC does not have an onboard GPU, whereas the AMD G-T40E does but I suspect it is disabled a much as possible. Also there is no companion chip (which generates heat) for the GX-412TC as the SoC does it all. It would be interesting to see thermal images comparing the APU1 and APU2 given they use the same case.
