About the Intel HD Graphics 615 GPU
The Intel HD Graphics 615 is an integrated graphics card that launched in Q3 2016. It is built on the Generation 9.5 GPU microarchitecture (codename Kaby Lake GT2) and is manufactured on a 14 nm process.
Memory
The HD Graphics 615 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 615 includes 192 shading units, 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 850 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 24 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 3 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.
Compatibility & Power Consumption
The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 5 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 615 has the 430th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.19% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
About the Intel HD Graphics 4600 GPU
The Intel HD Graphics 4600 is an end-of-life integrated graphics card that released in Q2 2013. It is built on the Generation 7.5 GPU microarchitecture (codename Haswell GT2) and is manufactured on a 22 nm process.
Memory
The HD Graphics 4600 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 4600 includes 160 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 1,100 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 20 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 45 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 4600 has the 468th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.87% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
