Cost-effectiveness evaluation

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

HD 8280E and HD Graphics 3000 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	128	12
Core clock speed	450 MHz	350 MHz
Boost clock speed	no data	1350 MHz
Number of transistors	1,178 million	995 million
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	32 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	15 Watt	unknown
Texture fill rate	3.600	13.80
Floating-point performance	no data	20.4 gflops

Form factor & compatibility

Information on Radeon HD 8280E and HD Graphics 3000 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.
