About the AMD Radeon HD 7690M XT GPU

The AMD Radeon HD 7690M XT is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q1 2013. It is built on the TeraScale 2 GPU microarchitecture (codename Thames) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.

Memory

The HD 7690M XT has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 900 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 57.6 Gb/s, 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 7690M XT includes 480 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 725 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 24 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 16 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 25 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The HD 7690M XT has the 421st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.29% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q1 2014. It is built on the Maxwell GPU microarchitecture (codename GM107) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The GTX 860M has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,253 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 80.19 Gb/s, 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 GTX 860M includes 640 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,020 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,020 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 40 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 16 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 75 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The GTX 860M has the 250th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 4.69% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
