Summary
About the AMD Radeon R5 330 GPU
The AMD Radeon R5 330 is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q2 2015. It is built on the GCN 1.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Exo) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.
Memory
The R5 330 has 2 GB of DDR3 memory, with a 900 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 14.4 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 R5 330 includes 320 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 830 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 855 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 20 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The R5 330 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 50 W.
About the ATI Radeon X1950 GT GPU
The ATI Radeon X1950 GT is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q1 2007 with a MSRP of $140. It is built on the Ultra-Threaded SE GPU microarchitecture (codename RV570) and is manufactured on a 80 nm process.
Memory
The X1950 GT has 256 MB of GDDR3 memory, with a 600 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 38.4 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
Complementing the processing units are 12 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 12 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The X1950 GT is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports 2x DVI, 1x S-Video display connections. ATI recommends a power supply of at least 250 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 57 W.
