About the AMD Radeon HD 8240 GPU

The AMD Radeon HD 8240 is an end-of-life integrated graphics card that released in Q4 2013. It is built on the GCN 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Kalindi) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The HD 8240 includes 128 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 8 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 4 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

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 HD 8240 has the 526th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.41% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the Intel UHD Graphics (Elkhart Lake, 16EU) GPU

The Intel UHD Graphics (Elkhart Lake, 16EU) is an integrated graphics card that launched in Q3 2020. It is built on the Generation 11.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Elkhart Lake GT1) and is manufactured on a 10 nm process.

Memory

The UHD Graphics 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 UHD Graphics includes 128 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 250 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 750 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 8 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 4 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 9 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The UHD Graphics has the 492nd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.62% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
