Size and compatibility
This section provides details about the physical dimensions of GMA 500 and its compatibility with other computer components. This information is useful when selecting a computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards, it includes details about the interface and bus (for motherboard compatibility) and additional power connectors (for power supply compatibility).
| Interface | PCIe 1.0 x16 | |
| Width | IGP |
Memory
Parameters of memory installed on GMA 500: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Note that GPUs integrated into processors have no dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM instead.
| Memory type | System Shared | |
| Maximum RAM amount | System Shared | of 192 (Radeon Instinct MI300X) |
| Memory bus width | System Shared | of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
| Memory clock speed | System Shared | of 23000 (GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER) |
Video outputs and ports
Types and number of video connectors present on GMA 500. As a rule, this section is relevant only for desktop reference graphics cards, since for notebook ones the availability of certain video outputs depends on the laptop model, while non-reference desktop models can (though not necessarily will) bear a different set of video ports.
| Display Connectors | No outputs |
