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.
| Pipelines / CUDA cores | 1536 | 2048 |
| Core clock speed | 1063 MHz | 926 MHz |
| Boost clock speed | 1190 MHz | 1206 MHz |
| Number of transistors | 5,000 million | 5,700 million |
| Manufacturing process technology | 14 nm | 14 nm |
| Thermal design power (TDP) | 100 Watt | 120 Watt |

| Floating-point performance | 3,656 gflops | 4,399 gflops |
Dimensions and compatibility
Information on Radeon RX Vega M GH and Radeon RX 470 Mobile 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 | medium sized | large |
| Interface | IGP | MXM-B (3.0) |
Memory
Parameters of VRAM installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Integrated GPUs have no dedicated VRAM and use a shared part of system RAM.
| Memory type | HBM2 | GDDR5 |
| Maximum RAM amount | 4 GB | 8 GB |
| Memory bus width | 1024 Bit | 256 Bit |
| Memory clock speed | 1600 MHz | 7000 MHz |
| Memory bandwidth | 204.8 GB/s | 224.0 GB/s |
| Shared memory | - | - |
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 | No outputs |
