Intel HD 515

The HD 515 is an Intel GPU that was released in 2015 September. This GPU is bad at gaming with a score of 74 points in our PC benchmark.

In terms of clock speed, the HD 515 GPU core runs at a frequency of 300 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 800 MHz. The clock runs at a speed called the clock speed. It dictates the number of updates per second that the GPU can process. Overclocking a chip, which means increasing the clock speed will improve the performance. However, thermals and power efficiency may be diminished.

As for rendering API support, the HD 515 supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.6 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.

Power and thermals for the Intel HD 515 are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 15 watts. This measures the amount of heat the GPU produces when running at 100%. This isn't a measure of power consumption, but it's a good estimate.
