Wii GPU: specs and benchmarks

Summary

ATI started Wii GPU sales 19 November 2006. This is a desktop graphics card based on a R500 architecture and made with 90 nm manufacturing process. It is primarily aimed at gamer market. 64 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 0.49 GHz are supplied, and together with 64 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 3.888 GB/s.

Compatibility-wise, this is an integrated video card. No additional power connector is required, and power consumption is at 45 Watt.

Number of transistors	107 million	of 14400 (GeForce GTX 1070 SLI Mobile)
Manufacturing process technology	90 nm	of 4 (Radeon 780M)
Power consumption (TDP)	45 Watt	of 2400 (Data Center GPU Max Subsystem)
Texture fill rate	0.97	of 969.9 (H100 SXM5 96 GB)

Size and compatibility

This section provides details about the physical dimensions of Wii GPU and its compatibility with other computer components. This information is useful when selecting a computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards, it includes details about the interface and bus (for motherboard compatibility) and additional power connectors (for power supply compatibility).

Interface	IGP
Width	IGP

Memory

Parameters of memory installed on Wii GPU: 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	GDDR3
Maximum RAM amount	64 MB	of 192 (Radeon Instinct MI300X)
Memory bus width	64 Bit	of 8192 (Radeon Instinct MI250X)
Memory clock speed	486 MHz	of 23000 (GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER)
Memory bandwidth	3.888 GB/s	of 3276 (Aldebaran)

Video outputs and ports

Types and number of video connectors present on Wii GPU. 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 Wii GPU, sometimes including their particular versions.

DirectX	N/A
OpenGL	N/A	of 4.6 (GeForce RTX 4090)
OpenCL	N/A
Vulkan	N/A

Benchmark performance

Synthetic benchmark performance of Wii GPU. The combined score is measured on a 0-100 point scale.
