However, the HD 4600 can also be seen as a massive improvement over the HD 4000 GPU on current Ivy Bridge processors.
Intel Core i5-3570K "HD 4000 GPU" - P748Īs you can note, the AMD HD 8670D leads in the GPU comparison and it was expected since its based on a much faster architecture compared to Intel's.
Results obtained are listed below (Full benchmarks of the Richland A10-6700 can be seen here): 3DMark 11 Performance Preset: The chip was compared against the HD 4600 GPU solution from the Core i5-4670K while i added a HD 4000 graphics comparison of the HD 4000 chip from my Core i5-3570K The fastest chip of the series "Radeon HD 8670D" would ship with the Richland based A10-6800K and A10-6700 featuring a GPU core clock of 844 MHz. AMD would be shipping their upcoming Kabini, Temash and Richland APUs with the VLIW4 architecture based Radeon HD 8000 chips. Intel's HD 4600 graphics chip would ship with the bulk of the desktop and mobile processors while the much faster Iris and Iris Pro "HD 5000/5100/5200" chips would ship with BGA R-Series and Low TDP Haswell processors. Intel HD 4600 Graphics Compared To AMD's Radeon HD 8670D The comparison shows AMD's obvious lead over the HD 4600 GPU but the Intel solution is very close to the Radeon HD 8670D. A benchmark comparison between Intel's HD 4600 iGPU and AMD's HD 8670D GPU has been posted by Chinese forum members.
