In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop are significantly better than the AMD Radeon HD 7500G.
The Graphics 4600 was released over a year more recently than the Radeon HD 7500G, and so the Graphics 4600 is likely to have better driver support, meaning it will be more optimized for running the latest games when compared to the Radeon HD 7500G.
The HD Graphics 4600 Desktop and the Radeon HD 7500G have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The Graphics 4600 has 4.3 GB/sec greater memory bandwidth than the Radeon HD 7500G, which means that the memory performance of the Graphics 4600 is marginally better than the Radeon HD 7500G.
The HD Graphics 4600 Desktop has 20 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon HD 7500G has 256. However, the actual shader performance of the Graphics 4600 is 100 and the actual shader performance of the Radeon HD 7500G is 84. The Graphics 4600 having 16 better shader performance and an altogether better performance when taking into account other relevant data means that the Graphics 4600 delivers a marginally smoother and more efficient experience when processing graphical data than the Radeon HD 7500G.
The HD Graphics 4600 Desktop requires 88 Watts to run and the Radeon HD 7500G requires 17 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the Graphics 4600. The Graphics 4600 requires 71 Watts more than the Radeon HD 7500G to run. The difference is significant enough that the Graphics 4600 may have an adverse affect on your yearly electricity bills in comparison to the Radeon HD 7500G.

Mini Review | Overview Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop are Integrated Graphics in some of Intel's Desktop Haswell Processors. Architecture The Haswell GT2 Core includes support for DirectX 11.1, OpenCL 1.2 and OpenGL 4.0. Additionally, it also offers better Decoding Performance, when compared to its Predecessors. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed GT2 which offers 20 Shader Processing Units, 4 TMUs and 2 ROPs. The Central Unit Initially Runs at 200MHz and goes up to 1250MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU Shares the System's RAM which varies from System to System. Typically, the GPU reserves 1.7GB. Depending on whether or not the system's RAM is Dual-Channeled, it can access either a 64-bit or 128-bit memory interface. The operating memory clock also depends on which speed the System's RAM is running and is limited by the highest operating speed that the Processor supports. In this case, it is 800MHz. 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. Performance The Most Powerful Variant Offers Performance similar to a dedicated GeForce GT 220. Select the Specific Version you have of this Graphics Card According to your Processor for a more Accurate Rank and experience using our tools. System Suggestions We recommend 4GB of RAM for a system with Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop. | Radeon HD 7500G is an integrated GPU on the entry-level ULV Trinity CPUs. It's based on the 32nm Terascale 3 architecture and offers 256 Shader Processing Units, 16 TMUs and 8 ROPs. The memory interface will depend on whether or not the laptop's system RAM is dual channelled (128-bit if so, 64-bit, if not) and the operating memory clock can be up to 667MHz (max speed supported by the CPU). The central unit runs at 327MHz and will go up to 424MHz in Turbo Mode. Expect a TDP of up to 17 Watt. Its performance is below Intel HD 4000 Graphics but is slightly above next in series - Radeon HD 7520G, despite the naming, due to the extra Shaders which prove useful in most of today's modern games. Most of today's modern games will have to be played at the lowest settings, while extremely demanding games (e.g. Crysis 3) are most likely unplayable. |
