The first tests of the upcoming system from the red Radeon 780M based on the RDNA 3 architecture are very promising. The benchmark 3DMark Time Spy shows that the GPU is nearly 26% faster than the previous integrated Radeon 680M based on RDNA 2, according to the user’s “Golden Pig Upgrade” entry on the Chinese website Bilibili. How are the results of the system presented?
The upcoming AMD Radeon 780M integrated graphics is expected to be up to 26% more efficient than its predecessor. RDNA 3 on the move.
AMD has published financial results for 2022. There is a collapse in the market of processors for personal computers
We already know that the upcoming RDNA 3 based chips will be based on two models. They will be Radeon 780M and Radeon 760M. The first of them, according to WCCFTech, will contain 12 CUs (Computing Blocks) and a total of 768 SPs (Stream Processors). The core clock frequency will be up to 3 GHz. The second system, the Radeon 760M, will consist of 8 CU units, with a total of 512 SP and a clock speed that will accelerate to 2.8 GHz. These chips will be part of the newly released AMD Ryzen 7040 “Pheonix” APUs. Each of them is to include the Ryzen AI engine, based on Xilinx XDNA. The first laptops in which the new Ryzens will be installed should appear in March this year.
Acer is preparing proprietary versions of AMD Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards. They will stand out with a premium design
A fairly well-known user of Bilibili “Golden Pig Upgrade” has made the first results of performance tests public. They are based on the popular 3DMark Time Spy benchmark. Both configurations prepared for testing were based on fast LPDDR5X chips. In the first of them LPDDR5X-7500 memory was used, and in the second DDR5-5600. Of course, it is known that APUs mainly make use of the used memory chips, so it should come as no surprise that the test based on the LPDDR5X-7500 fared much better. The amazing thing is that the integrated systems from AMD achieve very similar performance to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 card, which in the same test achieved a score of 3369 points.
AMD may add 3D V-Cache to Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards in the future
We can expect that when AMD releases new systems, in combination with fast memories, they will be a really sensible choice. Already processors from the Rembrandt series using the RDNA 2 architecture, offered satisfactory performance at a good price. It may be similar in this case. Soon, the choice of a graphics chip integrated with the processor may make much more sense. Is a little revolution coming? We will have to wait more than a month for an answer until we can officially test the novelty from AMD. Below is a table with laptops with similar parameters to compare the results.
