Size and compatibility
This section provides details about the physical dimensions of HD Graphics 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 HD Graphics: 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 128 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
Memory bus width | System Shared | of 19000 (GeForce RTX 3080 12 GB) |
Memory clock speed | System Shared | of 22400 (GeForce RTX 4080) |
Video outputs and ports
Types and number of video connectors present on HD Graphics. 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 |
API support
APIs supported by HD Graphics, sometimes including their particular versions.
DirectX | 11.1 (11_0) | |
Shader Model | 5.0 | |
OpenGL | 4.0 | of 4.6 (GeForce GTX 1080 Mobile) |
OpenCL | 1.2 | |
Vulkan | 1.1.80 |
Benchmark performance
Synthetic benchmark performance of HD Graphics. The combined score is measured on a 0-100 point scale.
Passmark
This is probably the most ubiquitous benchmark, part of Passmark PerformanceTest suite. It gives the graphics card a thorough evaluation under various load, providing four separate benchmarks for Direct3D versions 9, 10, 11 and 12 (the last being done in 4K resolution if possible), and few more tests engaging DirectCompute capabilities.
Benchmark coverage: 25%
3DMark Fire Strike Graphics
Fire Strike is a DirectX 11 benchmark for gaming PCs. It features two separate tests displaying a fight between a humanoid and a fiery creature seemingly made of lava. Using 1920x1080 resolution, Fire Strike shows off some realistic graphics and is quite taxing on hardware.
Benchmark coverage: 14%
