AMD Radeon 520

Released in 2017, the Radeon 520 is a GPU from AMD. According to our GPU Benchmark, this GPU is a bad card for gaming with a score of 213 points.

The Radeon 520 has 4 GiB of GDDR5 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 46 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 64 bits. More memory is beneficial when gaming at high resolutions as the memory needs to store the frame buffer and all the game textures. If you run out of memory, you will experience poor performance as the GPU needs to swap data in and out of the memory as it is used.

and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1030 MHz.
