In terms of overall gaming performance, the graphical capabilities of the Intel HD Graphics 510 Desktop are significantly better than the AMD Radeon X1800 XL.
The Graphics 510 was released over three years more recently than the Radeon X1800 XL, and so the Graphics 510 is likely to have far better driver support, meaning it will be much more optimized and ultimately superior to the Radeon X1800 XL when running the latest games.
The Radeon X1800 XL has 256 MB video memory, but the Graphics 510 does not have an entry, so the two GPUs cannot be reliably compared in this area.
The HD Graphics 510 Desktop has 12 Shader Processing Units and the Radeon X1800 XL has 16. However, the actual shader performance of the Graphics 510 is 101 and the actual shader performance of the Radeon X1800 XL is 5. The Graphics 510 having 96 better shader performance is not particularly notable, as altogether the Radeon X1800 XL performs better when taking into account other relevant data.
The HD Graphics 510 Desktop requires 47 Watts to run and the Radeon X1800 XL requires 70 Watts. We would recommend a PSU with at least 300 Watts for the Graphics 510. The Radeon X1800 XL requires 23 Watts more than the Graphics 510 to run. The difference is not significant enough for the Radeon X1800 XL to have a noticeably larger impact on your yearly electricity bills than the Graphics 510.

| Mini Review | Overview Intel HD Graphics 510 Desktop are Integrated Graphics in some of Intel's Skylake Processors. Architecture The Skylake Core includes support for DirectX 12.1, OpenCL 2.0 and OpenGL 4.4. Additionally, it also supports DDR4 Memory. GPU It equips a GPU Codenamed GT1 which offers 12 Shader Processing Units, 8 TMUs and 4 ROPs. The Central Unit Initially Runs at 350MHz and goes up to 1050MHz, in Turbo Mode. Memory The GPU Shares the System's RAM which varies from laptop to laptop. 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 the at 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 1067MHz. 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 Gaming benchmarks put its performance almost on level with the older Intel HD Graphics 4400. System Suggestions Intel HD Graphics 510 Desktop is best suited for resolutions up to and including 1366x768. We recommend a Decent Processor and 4GB of RAM for Optimal Performance. | Radeon X1800 XL is a performance GPU based on the 90nm variant of the R500 architecture. It's based on the R520 Core and offers 16 Pixel Shaders, 16 TMUs and 16 ROPs, on a 256-bit of standard GDDR3. The central unit runs at 500MHz and the memory clock operates at up to 500MHz. Its performance is considerably better than Radeon X1800 GTO thanks to core configuration, as is the power consumption. Some of today's games might be playable at medium settings although the low preset will have to be used on most. As it's not based on a Shader-Unified architecture, both DirectX 10 & 11 games aren't supported. | |||
