In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Intel HD Graphics 4400 Desktop are marginally better than the Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop.
The Graphics 4400 has no core clock speed set, so any comparison between Texture and Pixel Fill Rates is not currently possible.
The Graphics 4400 was released less than a year after the Graphics 4600, and so they are likely to have similar driver support for optimizing performance when running the latest games.
The HD Graphics 4400 Desktop and the HD Graphics 4600 Desktop have the same amount of video memory, but are likely to provide slightly different experiences when displaying game textures at high resolutions.
The memory bandwidth of the HD Graphics 4400 Desktop and the HD Graphics 4600 Desktop are the same, which means the Graphics 4400 and the Graphics 4600 have equal limitations when it comes to graphical data transfer.
The HD Graphics 4400 Desktop has 80 Shader Processing Units and the HD Graphics 4600 Desktop has 20. However, the actual shader performance of the Graphics 4400 is 0 and the actual shader performance of the Graphics 4600 is 100. The Graphics 4600 having 100 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 Graphics 4400.
The HD Graphics 4600 Desktop requires 88 Watts to run but there is no entry for the Graphics 4400. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the Graphics 4600, but we do not have a recommended PSU wattage for the Graphics 4400.

Mini Review | Intel HD Graphics 4400 Desktop is a variant of Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop, for ULV processors. It features 20 Execution Units (80 Shader Processing Units) and its central-unit speed will range between XXXMHz and 1150MHz (Turbo Boost) and that the fastest memory supported is DDR3-1600 meaning its memory-clock will operate at 800MHz, at the most. Compared to Intel HD Graphics 4600 Desktop, its performance is only slightly lower but its TDP is significantly lower. | 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. |
