About the AMD Radeon R2 (Beema) GPU

The AMD Radeon R2 (Beema) is an end-of-life integrated graphics card that released in Q1 2015. It is built on the GCN 2.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Beema) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The R2 includes 128 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 300 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 600 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 R2 has the 530th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.38% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the Intel HD Graphics (Braswell) GPU

The HD Graphics (Braswell) is an graphics card by Intel. It is built on the Generation 8.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Braswell GT1) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

Cores and Clock Speeds

The HD Graphics includes 128 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 320 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 700 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 16 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 2 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Benchmark Performance

The HD Graphics has the 531st best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.38% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
