I think the only use case that gets a significant benefit from SDMA is when use an AMD GPU in an external GPU box. In this case, the SDMA is able to better utilize the bottlenecked bandwidth. In a normal desktop or an APU, the difference is probably marginal at best.

In general though, on APUs, you can use VRAM and system memory interchangeably, so when applications allocate device accessible memory, either is fine.
