AMD Radeon VII Benchmark and Specs

AMD Radeon VII

The Radeon VII is a GPU from AMD released in 2019. This chip has a very good gaming score with 6138 points in our GPU benchmark.

The Radeon VII has 16 GiB of HBM2 memory, with a total memory bandwidth of 1000 GB/s. The memory bus has a width of 4096 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 VII GPU core runs at a frequency of 1400 MHz and if power and temperature permits, it can boost up to 1750 MHz. The core clock is directly related to the performance of a GPU, the higher the clock, the more processing can be done per second. A higher clock does not guarantee better performance by itself, this also depends on the number of shading units and other elements of the pipeline.

As for rendering API support, the Radeon VII 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.

The AMD Radeon VII has a TDP of 300W, this is the amount of heat energy produced by the chip as a byproduct. The higher the TDP, the more heat is produced.
