AMD Radeon R7 M265 Benchmark and Specs

AMD Radeon R7 M265

Thanks to our GPU Benchmark, we have measured the AMD Radeon R7 M265 as a bad gaming performer a score of 176 points.

The Radeon R7 M265 has 4 GiB of DDR3 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 31 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 128 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.

In terms of clock speed, the Radeon R7 M265 GPU core runs at a frequency of 725 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 825 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 M265 supports up to DirectX 11.2. In addition, in cross-platform titles, OpenGL 4.3 features are supported. Higher level APIs such as DirectX 12 give more control to the game developer and can allow them to improve the graphics and performance.
