Technical Analysis
Detailed breakdown of Radeon R5 A6-7480 specifications and capabilities.
Graphics Performance
The Radeon R5 A6-7480 scores 697 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 GCN 4.0 (2016−2020) architecture (codename: Ellesmere), manufactured on a 14 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 2304 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 144 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 32 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 5.834 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 1266 MHz from a base of 1120 MHz.
