Launched in 2010 on the 40Nm process, these Radeon mobile graphics are basic by today's standard - better than some integrated units of the last few years but any current processor will demolish it. It features 400 shaders, 20 texture units and 8 ROPs as well as 1GB of DDR3 on a 128-bit bus. TDP is 26W with clocks of 650 and 800MHz for core and memory.
I got an overall score of 6.17% for mine in a Lenovo Ideapad, with the latest drivers and an overclock to 900MHz core and 1000MHz memory. In real terms this made running older titles like 'Fallout 3' a lot more pleasant, with smoother frames and much less detectable input lag.
Overall? Comparatively terrible, but very acceptable if you're the owner of a cheap, used laptop! [Jul '19boingk]
NVIDIA's RTX 2080 is based on its new Turing architecture which boasts new AI and ray tracing technology that could eventually result in better GPU performance. Unfortunately there are currently no games which can take advantage of these new capabilities. The early 2080 benchmarks only exhibit a modest (20%) performance improvement over the 1080 which considering the new price tag of $800 for the Founders Edition is hard to stomach. The 2080 features 2944 CUDA cores, a base/boost speed of 1515/1710 MHz, 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and a memory bandwidth of 448 GB/s. NVIDIA have also released the 2080 Ti which has marginally higher specs together with a jaw dropping price tag of $1200 for the Founders Edition. The RTX 2080 features Turing NVENC which is far more efficient than CPU encoding and alleviates the need for casual streamers to use a dedicated stream PC. Unfortunately for gamers and other consumers, AMD’s top end GPUs such as the Vega 64 still lag NVIDIA's previous flagship 1080 Ti by 30% so there is very little pressure on NVIDIA to offer better value for money. The 2080 only has 8GB of RAM which is fine today but will likely haunt any early adopters that plan to keep the card for more than two years. [Sep '18GPUPro]
