The 840M includes 256 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. Additionally, the GPU features 4 ray accelerators dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Benchmark Performance

The 840M has the 219th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 6.51% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090.

About the AMD Radeon 740M GPU

The AMD Radeon 740M is an integrated graphics card that launched in Q1 2023. It is built on the RDNA 3.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Phoenix) and is manufactured on a 4 nm process.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The 740M includes 256 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 800 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 2,500 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 16 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 4 ray accelerators dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 15 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The 740M has the 241st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 567 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 5.34% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090.
