About the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470M GPU
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q3 2010. It is built on the Fermi GPU microarchitecture (codename GF104) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.
Memory
The GTX 470M has 1,536 MB of GDDR5 memory, with a 750 MHz memory clock and a 192 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 72 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 GTX 470M includes 288 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 535 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 48 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 24 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 GTX 470M has the 362nd best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.91% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
About the AMD Radeon R7 (Carrizo) GPU
The AMD Radeon R7 (Carrizo) is an end-of-life integrated graphics card that released in Q4 2015. It is built on the GCN 3.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Wani) and is manufactured on a 28 nm process.
Memory
The R7 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 R7 includes 512 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 200 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 720 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 32 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 8 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 R7 has the 377th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 1.71% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
