About the AMD Radeon R7 M260X GPU

The AMD Radeon R7 M260X is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q4 2015. It is built on the GCN 1.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Opal) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.

Memory

The R7 M260X has 1,024 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,000 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 64 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 R7 M260X includes 384 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 620 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 715 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 24 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Benchmark Performance

The R7 M260X has the 367th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.82% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the AMD Radeon Pro 560X GPU

The AMD Radeon Pro 560X is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q3 2018. It is built on the GCN 4.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Polaris 21) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

The Pro 560X has 4 GB of GDDR5 memory, with a 1,470 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 94.08 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 Pro 560X includes 1,024 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,004 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 64 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 Pro 560X has the 213th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 7.26% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
