Core clock speed	750 MHz	8 MHz
Boost clock speed	no data	500 MHz
Number of transistors	292 million	278 million
Manufacturing process technology	40 nm	90 nm
Thermal design power (TDP)	11 Watt	45 Watt
Texture fill rate	6.000	12.00
Floating-point performance	120 gflops	no data

Dimensions and compatibility

Information on Radeon HD 6370M and GeForce Go 7900 GTX compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. 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.

Laptop size	no data	large
Interface	PCIe 2.0 x16	PCIe 1.0 x16
Supplementary power connectors	no data	None
