Shader units and compute resources
The AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP GPU core specifications define its raw processing power for graphics and compute workloads. Shading units (also called CUDA cores, stream processors, or execution units depending on manufacturer) handle the parallel calculations required for rendering. TMUs (Texture Mapping Units) process texture data, while ROPs (Render Output Units) handle final pixel output. Higher shader counts generally translate to better GPU benchmark performance, especially in demanding games and 3D applications.
HD 8510G IGP Clock Speeds
GPU and memory frequencies
Clock speeds directly impact the Radeon HD 8510G IGP's performance in GPU benchmarks and real-world gaming. The base clock represents the minimum guaranteed frequency, while the boost clock indicates peak performance under optimal thermal conditions. Memory clock speed affects texture loading and frame buffer operations. The Radeon HD 8510G IGP by AMD dynamically adjusts frequencies based on workload, temperature, and power limits to maximize performance while maintaining stability.

Radeon HD 8510G IGP Benchmark Scores
No benchmark data available for this GPU.
About AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP
The AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP is a TeraScale 3 integrated graphics processor built for mobile Richland platforms. It was released on May 22, 2013, and is classified as end-of-life in the database. The chip is manufactured by GlobalFoundries on a 32 nm process, with 1,303 million transistors occupying a 246 mm² die and a transistor density of 5.3M per square millimeter. It is configured as an IGP with a system-shared memory path and portable-device dependent display outputs.
Benchmark Performance
The benchmark record for the AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP is sparse. The average benchmark score stored in the database is 0, and the individual benchmark list is empty. Because there are no per-application scores, the data cannot show workload-by-workload performance. The percentile field places the IGP at the 50th percentile when compared against all GPUs in the database, which indicates a median position in the overall distribution. However, the zero average score means the percentile has no supporting benchmark result behind it in this record.
The specification table provides fixed throughput numbers. The IGP has 384 shading units, 24 texture mapping units, and 8 ROPs. Its pixel rate is 4.432 GPixel/s, its texture rate is 13.30 GTexel/s, and its FP32 compute throughput is 425.5 GFLOPS. These are the only compute performance figures available, and they describe a small integrated pipeline rather than a high-end discrete part. In the absence of benchmark scores, these rates act as the primary measure of raw capacity.
No base, boost, or game clock is listed. Memory clock is listed only as “System Shared,” and memory bandwidth is described as “System Dependent.” That means the effective bandwidth is determined by the host platform’s system memory, not by a dedicated memory interface on the graphics processor. The bus interface is IGP, and slot width is also IGP, confirming the part is embedded in a platform rather than installed as a separate card. The combination of a 35 W TDP and system-dependent memory bandwidth suggests the IGP is intended for power-constrained portable designs.
Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP does not expose ray tracing hardware. The rtCores field is null, and the tensorCores field is null. No dedicated ray tracing acceleration is present in the specification. This is consistent with a TeraScale 3 architecture from the Richland Mobile generation, which predates the hardware-ray-tracing era.
The API support list is DirectX 11.2 with a feature level of 11_0, and OpenGL 4.4. Vulkan support is not listed; the vulkan field is null. This means software relying on Vulkan cannot be assumed to work through the documented feature set. Applications targeting DirectX 11.2 feature level 11_0 or OpenGL 4.4 are within the IGP’s stated API capabilities.
Memory resources are entirely system-shared. Memory size, memory type, and memory bus width are each listed as “System Shared,” while bandwidth is “System Dependent.” There is no dedicated VRAM pool. The memory clock is also listed as “System Shared.” As a result, any memory-related performance characteristic depends on the rest of the system rather than on the IGP itself.
Display outputs are described as “Portable Device Dependent,” meaning the physical connectors and supported display configuration depend on the notebook or portable device that hosts the chip. The power connectors field is not populated, and no suggested PSU is listed, which aligns with the IGP form factor. The slot width is IGP rather than an expansion-slot width, reinforcing the integrated nature of the part.
How It Compares
The current database entry lists no nearest rivals. The nearestRivals array is empty, so there are no rival names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values to cite. As a result, a direct rival-by-rival comparison cannot be made from the data in this record. The only comparison points available are the predecessor and successor fields: this IGP follows TeraScale 2 IGP and precedes GCN 2.0 IGP. That places it between two architectural families in AMD’s integrated lineup.
The 50th percentile against all GPUs is a database-level position, but it is not tied to a rival score. Without nearestRivals data, the percentile cannot be translated into percentage advantages or disadvantages against specific products. The data describes a mid-pack overall ranking, but the zero average benchmark score leaves no concrete performance margin to analyze.
The production status is end-of-life, which differentiates it from current hardware. Its 2013 release date also places it outside the active product cycle. When comparing it to newer integrated graphics, the 32 nm process, system-shared memory, and TeraScale 3 architecture indicate an older part, but the data set provides no numeric comparison to confirm how much older any rival might be. The only definitive positioning in the record is architectural: TeraScale 3 sits after TeraScale 2 IGP and before GCN 2.0 IGP.
Who Should Consider It
The AMD Radeon HD 8510G IGP is best considered for systems that need integrated graphics with a modest fixed feature set. Its 35 W TDP and IGP slot width point to low-power notebooks and portable devices. The display outputs being portable-device dependent further narrows its natural environment to integrated mobile designs.
The compute resources are small: 384 shading units, 24 TMUs, 8 ROPs, 425.5 GFLOPS FP32, 4.432 GPixel/s pixel rate, and 13.30 GTexel/s texture rate. For workloads that stay within those limits, the IGP can provide display output and basic 3D acceleration. Heavier 3D workloads will likely be constrained by the system-dependent memory bandwidth and the lack of a dedicated frame buffer.
Given the API list of DirectX 11.2 (11_0) and OpenGL 4.4, this IGP suits software built for those APIs. Users running Vulkan-based applications should check compatibility elsewhere, since Vulkan support is not documented. Users targeting ray-traced effects should not consider this part, because no ray tracing or tensor core resources are present.
Resolution and settings recommendations must be derived from the raw rates. The pixel rate of 4.432 GPixel/s and texture rate of 13.30 GTexel/s are limited enough that lower resolutions and restrained settings are the sensible operating region. Higher resolutions and large texture workloads would place more pressure on the small ROP and TMU counts. In practical terms, the IGP is appropriate for basic interface acceleration, lightweight media tasks, and older or less demanding 3D applications that conform to its DirectX 11.2 or OpenGL 4.4 feature levels.
