The clocks for the SLI-setup are identical to a single GTX 860M. With SLI, each card usually renders a single frame (AFR mode). Each card has a 28 nm GM107 core based on the Maxwell architecture. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M SLI is a high-end DirectX 12-compatible graphics solution for laptops, consisting of two GeForce GTX 860M. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M SLI ► remove from comparison
#AMD RADEON R7 M260 VS GTX 860M SERIES#
The 800M series also supports Optimus to automatically switch between an integrated graphics card and the Nvidia GPU. Therefore, the 860M is best suited for 15-inch laptops or larger. The low-clocked Kepler version draws just slightly more power. The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 860M should be similar to the old GTX 765M (about 60 watts). Of course, VP6 supports all features of previous generations (4K support, PIP, video encoding via NVENC API). Unfortunately, HDMI 2.0 is still not supported. GM107 integrates the sixth generation of the PureVideo HD video engine (VP6), offering a better decoding performance for H.264 and MPEG-2 videos. However, very demanding games such as Crysis 3 or Battlefield 4 will require lower resolutions and/or details.ĭespite its considerably higher shader count, the Kepler version is about 10 percent slower, mainly due to the worse bandwidth efficiency. Similar to Fermi and Kepler, Maxwell / GM107 supports DirectX 11.2 with feature level 11.0 only.Īlthough the GTX 860M has much less memory bandwidth and computing power, it can compete with (or sometimes even beat) the old Kepler-based GeForce GTX 770M while drawing significantly less power. Many games of 2013/2014 (Tomb Raider or BioShock Infinite, etc.) can be played fluently in FullHD resolution and very high detail settings. The increased size can handle some of the memory traffic to allow for a relatively narrow memory interface without significantly reducing the performance. Smaller Streaming Multiprocessors (SMM) with only 128 ALUs (Kepler: 192) and an optimized scheduler should lead to better utilization of the shaders. Nvidia promises that a Maxwell SMM with 128 ALUs can offer 90 percent of the performance of a Kepler SMX with 192 ALUs. GM107 features 5 SMMs and thus 640 shader cores, 40 TMUs and 16 ROPs (128-bit interface).Īnother optimization is the massively enlarged L2 cache (GM107: 2 MB). The GTX 860M offers 640 shader units clocked at 1029 MHz (+ Boost) as well as 4 GB of GDDR5 memory (128 bit, 5000 MHz effective).Īlternatively, there is also a version based on the Kepler chip GK104, which has 1152 shader units clocked at 797 MHz.Ĭompared to Kepler, Maxwell has been optimized in several details to increase power efficiency. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M is an upper mid-range, DirectX 12-compatible graphics card for laptops unveiled in March 2014. It is one of the first cards based on Nvidia's new Maxwell architecture (GM107 chip), but is still manufactured in 28 nm. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M ► remove from comparison The whole Ryzen 6000 chip can be configured down to 15W.
Thanks to the modern 6nm process and clever power-saving features, the power consumption is comparatively low (according to AMD), so the graphics card can also be used for slim and light notebooks (depending on the CPU model).
#AMD RADEON R7 M260 VS GTX 860M 1080P#
According to AMD, the Radeon 680M (in the 6800U) is faster than a dedicated Nvidia GeForce MX450 and best suited for 1080p gaming and low details (for AAA games). Compared to the dedicated Radeon 5300M (also RDNA), the 680M should still be significantly slower. Therefore, the 680M should be the fastest integrated graphics card in early 2022. Thanks to the new architecture, high core count and the increased maximum core clock, the Radeon 680M should be clearly faster then the old Radeon Vega 8 iGPUs. The 680M and 660M iGPUs are the first integrated graphics card with hardware raytracing support, although the performance is too slow to use it in current games. The iGPU is based on the RDNA2 architecture and has 12 CUs (= 768 shaders) clocked at up to 2,400 MHz (depending on the CPU model). The AMD Radeon 680M is an integrated GPU in the Ryzen 6000 series for laptops (Rembrandt, e.g.
