Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of Radeon R7 M440 specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The Radeon R7 M440 scores 901 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 3.0 (2014−2019) architecture (codename: Meso), manufactured on a 28 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 320 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 20 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 8 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 0.5702 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance.
