14 DAY TRIAL // It would seem that AMD's seriously gearing up in order to bring its mobile GPU lineup more to date, the company listing two brand-new Radeon HD 6000M GPUs in its mobile graphics lineup without making too much fuss about it. So, the Radeon HD 6500M apparently sports 400 Stream Processors and 20 Texture Units, a GDDR5 (and DDR3) memory interface, as well as a GPU clock ranging from 500 to 650 MHz and memory frequency set to 900 MHz GDDR5 or DDR3, plus 32 Z/Stencil ROP Units and 8 Color ROP Units. It also sports and UVD 2, which makes it fairly similar to its top-line predecessor, the Radeon HD 5700M GPUs, while its processing power (single precision) is listed at 400-520 GigaFLOPS. Furthermore, the GPU delivers a polygon throughput of 500-650M polygons/sec, data fetch rate (32-bit) of 40-52 billion fetches/sec, texel fill rate (bilinear filtered) of 10-13 Gigatexels/sec, pixel fill rate of 4-5.2 Gigapixels/sec and anti-aliased pixel fill rate of 16-20.8 Gigasamples/sec. The memory data rate is set at 3.6 Gbps (GDDR5) or 1.8 Gbps (DDR3), while the memory bandwidth values are rated at 57.6 GB/sec (GDDR5) or 28.8 GB/sec (DDR3). The Radeon HD 6300M comes equipped with 80 stream processors, 8 texture units and a DDR 3 interface, 6 Z/Stencil ROP Units and 4 Color ROP Units, as well as 500 to 750 Mhz GPU frequency, and a memory data rate of 1.6-1.8 Gbps. Processing power (single precision) ranges between 80-120 GigaFLOPS, polygon throughput is set at 125-187.5M polygons/sec, while the memory bandwidth is set at 12.8-14.4 GB/sec. Both cards support DirectX 11, OpenGL 4.1, AMD Eyefinity multi-display technology, AMD CrossFireX multi-GPU technology, Dual GPU scaling, AMD EyeSpeed visual acceleration and AMD HD3D technology, among other things. Last, but certainly not least, very little info on the notebooks that will actually get to incorporate these new mobile AMD Radeon HD GPUs has been provided, apart from the fact that we're apparently talking about products from Asus and Acer.
