It is then obvious the Memory Bandwidth depends on a lot of factors and thus this Graphics Card performance may vary heavily from system to system.

As a result, the GMA X4500 exhibits a 2.3 GTexels better Texture Fill Rate than the Graphics 2000.

This still holds weight but shader performance is generally more relevant, particularly since both of these GPUs support at least DirectX 10.

The Graphics 2000 has a 50 MHz higher core clock speed than the GMA X4500, but the GMA X4500 has 3 more Render Output Units than the Graphics 2000.

As a result, the GMA X4500 exhibits a 2.3 GPixels better Pixel Fill Rate than the Graphics 2000.

However, both GPUs support DirectX 9 or above, and pixeling performance is only really relevant when comparing older cards.

The Graphics 2000 was released over a year more recently than the GMA X4500, and so the Graphics 2000 is likely to have better driver support, meaning it will be more optimized for running the latest games when compared to the GMA X4500.

Both GPUs exhibit very poor performance, so rather than upgrading from one to the other you should consider looking at more powerful GPUs.

Neither of these will be able to run the latest games in any playable way.

The HD Graphics 2000 Desktop and the GMA X4500 have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.

The Graphics 2000 has 21.3 GBsec greater memory bandwidth than the GMA X4500, which means that the memory performance of the Graphics 2000 is slightly better than the GMA X4500.

The HD Graphics 2000 Desktop has 6 Shader Processing Units and the GMA X4500 has 10.

However, the actual shader performance of the Graphics 2000 is 32 and the actual shader performance of the GMA X4500 is 8.

The Graphics 2000 having 24 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the Graphics 2000 delivers a marginally smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the GMA X4500.

The Graphics 2000 transistor size technology is 33 nm (nanometers) smaller than the GMA X4500.

This means that the Graphics 2000 is expected to run much cooler and achieve higher clock frequencies than the GMA X4500.

While they exhibit similar graphical performance, the Graphics 2000 should consume less power than the GMA X4500.

The HD Graphics 2000 Desktop requires 95 Watts to run but there is no entry for the GMA X4500.

We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the Graphics 2000.

Architecture The Sandy Bridge GT1 Core includes support for DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL 3.1.

Additionally, it also offers better Video Encoding and Decoding Performance, when compared to its Predecessor.

The Central Unit Initially Runs at 850MHz and goes up to 1350MHz, in Turbo Mode.

Memory The GPU Shares the Systems RAM which varies from System to System.

Typically, the GPU reserves 1.7GB.
