AMD Radeon R7 250 Benchmark and Specs

AMD Radeon R7 250

Thanks to our GPU Benchmark, we have measured the AMD Radeon R7 250 as a bad gaming performer a score of 352 points.

The Radeon R7 250 has 2 GiB of DDR3 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 70 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 128 bits. If you plan on gaming at higher resolutions with higher quality textures, more memory is important. Without enough memory, performance will be degraded.

In terms of clock speed, the Radeon R7 250 GPU core runs at a frequency of 1000 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1050 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 Radeon R7 250 supports up to DirectX 12. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.4 features are supported. Newer APIs are usually more efficient, allowing for better performance in games and better graphical effects.

Power and thermals for the AMD Radeon R7 250 are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 75 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.
