About the ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT GPU
The ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q2 2007. It is built on the TeraScale GPU microarchitecture (codename RV610) and is manufactured on a 65 nm process.
Memory
The HD 2400 XT has 256 MB of GDDR3 memory, with a 500 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 8 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 2400 XT includes 40 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 650 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 4 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 4 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The HD 2400 XT is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DVI, VGA, S-Video display connections. ATI recommends a power supply of at least 200 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 25 W.
About the ATI Radeon HD 3870 (Mac Edition) GPU
The ATI Radeon HD 3870 (Mac Edition) is an end-of-life desktop graphics card that released in Q2 2008. It is built on the TeraScale GPU microarchitecture (codename RV670) and is manufactured on a 55 nm process.
Memory
The HD 3870 has 512 MB of GDDR4 memory, with a 1,126 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 72.06 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 3870 includes 320 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 777 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 16 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 16 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The HD 3870 is a compact, low-profile graphics card that fits into 1 PCIe expansion slot. It supports DVI, S-Video display connections. ATI recommends a power supply of at least 300 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 106 W.
