Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of Radeon R7 G specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The Radeon R7 G scores 870 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 1.0 (2012−2020) architecture (codename: Trinidad), manufactured on a 28 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 1024 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 64 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 32 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 1.997 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 975 MHz.
