About the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile GPU

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Mobile is a mobile graphics card that launched in Q1 2023. It is built on the Ada Lovelace GPU microarchitecture (codename AD103) and is manufactured on a 5 nm process.

Memory

The RTX 4090 Mobile has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,250 MHz memory clock and a 256 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 576 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 RTX 4090 Mobile includes 9,728 CUDA cores, the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,335 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 1,695 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 304 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 112 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 304 tensor cores optimized for AI-accelerated workloads and 76 RT cores dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The GPU has a thermal design power (TDP) of 120 W. A power supply not strong enough to handle this might result in system crashes and potentially damage your hardware.

Benchmark Performance

The RTX 4090 Mobile has the 14th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 62.10% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.

About the AMD Radeon HD 6450M GPU

The AMD Radeon HD 6450M is an end-of-life mobile graphics card that released in Q1 2011. It is built on the TeraScale 2 GPU microarchitecture (codename Seymour) and is manufactured on a 40 nm process.

Memory

The HD 6450M has 1,024 MB of DDR3 memory, with a 800 MHz memory clock and a 64 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 12.8 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 6450M includes 160 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 600 MHz. Complementing the processing units are 8 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 4 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing.

Benchmark Performance

The HD 6450M has the 525th best 3DMark 11 Performance GPU score among the 543 benchmarked GPUs in our database. It achieves 0.42% of the performance of the best benchmarked GPU, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
