About the Intel HD Graphics 510 GPU

The Intel HD Graphics 510 is an integrated graphics card that launched in Q3 2015. It is built on the Generation 9.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Skylake GT1) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.

Memory

The HD Graphics 510 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 HD Graphics 510 includes 96 shading units, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 350 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 950 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 12 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 2 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 Graphics 510 has the 474th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 540 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.81% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the NVIDIA GeForce MX550 GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce MX550 is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q4 2021. It is built on the Turing GPU microarchitecture (codename TU117SB) and is manufactured on a 12 nm process.

Memory

The MX550 has 2 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 1,500 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 96 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 MX550 includes 1,024 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,065 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,320 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 32 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 25 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The MX550 has the 177th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 540 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 9.57% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
