Size and compatibility

This section provides details about the physical dimensions of HD Graphics 400 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 3.0 x1
Width	IGP

Memory

Parameters of memory installed on HD Graphics 400: 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	DDR3L
Maximum RAM amount	8 GB	of 128 (Radeon Instinct MI250X)
Memory bus width	System Shared	of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X)
Memory clock speed	System Shared	of 22400 (GeForce RTX 4080)

Video outputs and ports

Types and number of video connectors present on HD Graphics 400. 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 400, sometimes including their particular versions.

DirectX	12 (11_1)
Shader Model	5.1
OpenGL	4.3	of 4.6 (GeForce GTX 1080 Mobile)
OpenCL	2.0
Vulkan	1.1.80
