Technical Analysis

Detailed breakdown of Radeon R7 M465X specifications and capabilities.

Graphics Performance

The Radeon R7 M465X scores 1,787 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: Tropo), manufactured on a 28 nm process— smaller process nodes improve power efficiency and transistor density. It packs 512 shader units (the primary compute units for rendering pixels), 32 TMUs (texture mapping units), and 16 ROPs (render output units that handle final pixel output). Raw FP32 compute power: 0.9472 TFLOPS — this measures the theoretical peak floating-point performance. Boost clock reaches 925 MHz from a base of 900 MHz.
