Technical specs
Radeon HD 6480G's general performance parameters such as number of shaders, GPU base clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly speak of Radeon HD 6480G's performance, but for precise assessment you have to consider its benchmark and gaming test results.
| Pipelines / CUDA cores | 240 | of 20480 (Data Center GPU Max NEXT) |
| Core clock speed | 444 MHz | of 2610 (Radeon RX 6500 XT) |
| Number of transistors | 1000 Million | of 14400 (GeForce GTX 1080 SLI Mobile) |
| Manufacturing process technology | 32 nm | of 4 (GeForce RTX 4080 Ti) |
| Thermal design power (TDP) | 35 Watt | of 2400 (Data Center GPU Max Subsystem) |

Dimensions and compatibility
Information on Radeon HD 6480G's 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.
| Interface | IGP |
Memory
Parameters of memory installed on Radeon HD 6480G: 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 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X) |
| Memory clock speed | System Shared | of 22400 (GeForce RTX 4080) |
| Shared memory | + |
Video outputs and ports
Types and number of video connectors present on Radeon HD 6480G. 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 Radeon HD 6480G, sometimes including their particular versions.
| DirectX | 11.2 (11_0) | |

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: 24%
3DMark Vantage Performance
3DMark Vantage is an outdated DirectX 10 benchmark using 1280x1024 screen resolution. It taxes the graphics card with two scenes, one depicting a girl escaping some militarized base located within a sea cave, the other displaying a space fleet attack on a defenseless planet. It was discontinued in April 2017, and Time Spy benchmark is now recommended to be used instead.
Benchmark coverage: 16%
3DMark 11 Performance GPU
3DMark 11 is an obsolete DirectX 11 benchmark by Futuremark. It used four tests based on two scenes, one being few submarines exploring the submerged wreck of a sunken ship, the other is an abandoned temple deep in the jungle. All the tests are heavy with volumetric lighting and tessellation, and despite being done in 1280x720 resolution, are relatively taxing. Discontinued in January 2020, 3DMark 11 is now superseded by Time Spy.
