Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of HD Graphics 630 specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The HD Graphics 630 scores 1,111 in the G3D Mark benchmark (the standard measure of rasterization GPU performance), placing it in the Entry Level tier as a Legacy generation graphics card. It is built on the Generation 9.5 (2016−2020) architecture (codename: Kaby Lake GT2), manufactured on a 14 nm++ process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 192 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 24 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 3 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 0.384 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1000 MHz from a base of 350 MHz.
