About the AMD Radeon HD 6520G GPU

The AMD Radeon HD 6520G is an end-of-life integrated graphics card that released in Q4 2011. It is built on the TeraScale 2 GPU microarchitecture (codename Sumo) and is manufactured on a 32 nm process.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The HD 6520G includes 320 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 400 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 16 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 35 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The HD 6520G has the 519th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.47% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the Intel HD Graphics 505 GPU

The Intel HD Graphics 505 is an integrated graphics card that launched in Q3 2016. It is built on the Generation 9.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Apollo Lake GT1.5) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

The HD Graphics 505 has System Shared of memory. This gives it a memory bandwidth of System Dependent, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The HD Graphics 505 includes 144 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 200 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 650 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 18 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 3 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 6 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The HD Graphics 505 has the 501st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.59% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
