Cost-effectiveness evaluation

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

HD Graphics 2500 and P106-100 have a nearly equal value for money.

Detailed specifications

General performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU core base clock and boost clock speeds, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider their benchmark and gaming test results. Note that power consumption of some graphics cards can well exceed their nominal TDP, especially when overclocked.

Pipelines / CUDA cores	6	1280
Core clock speed	650 MHz	1506 MHz
Boost clock speed	1150 MHz	1709 MHz
Number of transistors	392 million	4,400 million
Manufacturing process technology	22 nm	16 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	unknown	120 Watt
Texture fill rate	6.900	136.7
Floating-point performance	13.8 gflops	4,375 gflops

Form factor & compatibility

Information on HD Graphics 2500 and P106-100 compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus, if the video card is inserted into a slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.

Connectivity and outputs

Types and number of video connectors present on the reviewed GPUs. As a rule, data in this section is precise only for desktop reference ones (so-called Founders Edition for NVIDIA chips). OEM manufacturers may change the number and type of output ports, while for notebook cards availability of certain video outputs ports depends on the laptop model rather than on the card itself.
