Value for money

Performance to price ratio. The higher, the better.

HD 8400E and ATI HD 5470 have a nearly equal value for money.

Technical specs

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.

Core clock speed	600 MHz	650 MHz
Number of transistors	1,178 million	292 million
Manufacturing process technology	28 nm	40 nm
Power consumption (TDP)	25 Watt	19 Watt
Texture fill rate	4.800	5.200
Floating-point performance	no data	104.0 gflops

Size and compatibility

Information on compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Interface	IGP	PCIe 2.0 x16
Length	no data	170 mm
Width	IGP	1-slot
Supplementary power connectors	no data	None

Memory

Parameters of VRAM installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Integrated GPUs have no dedicated video RAM and use a shared part of system RAM.

Memory type	System Shared	GDDR3
Maximum RAM amount	System Shared	512 MB
Memory bus width	System Shared	64 Bit
Memory clock speed	System Shared	800 MHz
Memory bandwidth	no data	6.4 GB/s

Video outputs and ports

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.

Display Connectors	No outputs	1x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x VGA
HDMI	no data	+

API support

List of supported graphics and general-purpose computing APIs, including their specific versions.
