Intel HD 505
The HD 505 is an Intel GPU that was released in 2016 September. This GPU is bad at gaming with a score of 37 points in our PC benchmark.
In terms of clock speed, the HD 505 GPU core runs at a frequency of 200 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 650 MHz. A clock speed is the frequency at which the GPU updates. A higher speed means more processing can happen per cycle. This is useful only when comparing cards of the same generation, as other architectures may process more or less per clock.
As for rendering API support, the HD 505 supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. If your GPU is too old and doesn't support a newer API certain titles may not be playable.
This chip has a Thermal Design Power of 6W: the total amount of waste heat generated. A card that runs hotter will need better cooling and will draw more power from the wall.
