About AMD Radeon R8 M365DX
The AMD Radeon R8 M365DX is an integrated graphics processor built on the GCN 3.0 architecture with the Meso chip. Fabricated on TSMC's 28 nm process, the die measures 125 mm² and packs 1,550 million transistors, yielding a transistor density of 12.4M per mm². The part operates with a base clock of 900 MHz and a boost clock of 1125 MHz, and it is designated as part of the "Gem System Hybrid" generation under the Rx M300 family. Its production status is end-of-life, with a release date of 2015-06-02. The database records an average benchmark score of 0 and a percentile rank of 50 against all GPUs, placing it at the median of the tracked population.
Power and Cooling
The FACT PACK lists no TDP figure, no suggested PSU, and no power connector requirements for the AMD Radeon R8 M365DX. The slot width is given as IGP, and the bus interface is also IGP, which indicates that this is an integrated graphics processor rather than a discrete add-in board. Consequently, the cooling and power delivery are handled by the host portable device, not by an aftermarket cooler or a dedicated PSU connection. The absence of a TDP value in the database reflects the integrated nature of the part; system integrators design the thermal solution around the entire platform. Because it is an IGP, the power draw is subsumed into the overall system power budget, so the data does not support any specific PSU recommendation. The 28 nm process node from TSMC is the manufacturing baseline, but the actual power envelope is not quantified in the available records. The display outputs are listed as "Portable Device Dependent," reinforcing that this GPU is embedded within a laptop or similar system rather than being a standalone expansion card. Without a TDP or connector spec, any discussion of cooling must remain qualitative: the part relies on the host device's thermal management, and the lack of a dedicated power connector means no external power delivery is required.
Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The Radeon R8 M365DX has no dedicated ray tracing cores and no tensor cores, as those fields are null in the database. This means hardware-accelerated ray tracing is not a feature of this part. The feature set is instead defined by its API support: DirectX 12 (12_0), OpenGL 4.6, and Vulkan 1.2.170. The DirectX 12 feature level 12_0 indicates support for the baseline feature set of that API generation. The compute capabilities are expressed through the shading units (384), TMUs (24), and ROPs (8). The FP32 performance is 864.0 GFLOPS, and the FP16 performance is also 864.0 GFLOPS, with a 1:1 ratio, meaning there is no half-rate FP16 acceleration. The pixel rate is 9.000 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 27.00 GTexel/s. Without RT or tensor cores, any ray tracing or AI workloads would rely on shader-based compute, which is limited by the 864.0 GFLOPS ceiling. The API support is broad for its era, but the absence of specialized hardware means that modern ray-traced effects would have to be computed via general-purpose shaders, a path that is severely constrained by the available throughput. The 1:1 FP16 ratio is notable, as many competing parts of the same generation offered reduced FP16 rates; here, the symmetric compute rate allows for uniform precision in shader workloads.
How It Compares
The nearestRivals array in the FACT PACK is empty, so the database currently records no direct competitor scores for the AMD Radeon R8 M365DX. The percentile rank against all GPUs is 50, placing this part exactly at the median of the tracked GPU population. This means that half of the GPUs in the database perform better, and half perform worse, based on the aggregate benchmark distribution. Without rival entries, a positional comparison must rely solely on the percentile field. The absence of rival data points is notable; the part's integrated nature and end-of-life status likely explain why no comparable scores have been logged. The percentile of 50 serves as the only quantitative anchor for its standing in the overall market. Because no rival names or delta percentages are available, the analysis cannot state specific performance advantages or deficits against named competitors. The theoretical throughput figures—864.0 GFLOPS FP32, 9.000 GPixel/s, and 27.00 GTexel/s—are consistent with a part that sits in the middle of the historical GPU landscape, but without empirical rival scores, the positional data is limited to the percentile metric.

Benchmark Performance
The benchmark section of the FACT PACK is empty, with an average benchmark score of 0. The percentile rank against all GPUs is 50, which is the only performance-related metric available. Because the nearestRivals array is empty, there are no exact percentage deltas to report against competing parts. The theoretical throughput figures provide some context: the FP32 rate is 864.0 GFLOPS, the pixel fill rate is 9.000 GPixel/s, and the texture fill rate is 27.00 GTexel/s. These numbers suggest a part designed for basic 3D rendering and desktop workloads rather than high-end gaming. The boost clock of 1125 MHz, up from a 900 MHz base, indicates a modest dynamic range of 225 MHz. With an average benchmark score of 0, the database has not recorded any empirical test results for this unit. The percentile of 50, however, implies that if a score were present, it would fall in the middle of the distribution. Without rival deltas, the analysis cannot quantify a lead or deficit, but the theoretical rates can be compared to the overall median position. The pixel rate of 9.000 GPixel/s, derived from the 8 ROPs and the boost clock, is a fixed ceiling for fill-rate-bound scenarios. The texture rate of 27.00 GTexel/s, from the 24 TMUs, similarly bounds texture-heavy workloads. These theoretical maxima are the only quantitative performance indicators available, and they align with the median percentile ranking.
Memory Subsystem
The memory subsystem for the AMD Radeon R8 M365DX is entirely system-dependent. The memory size, type, and bus width are all listed as "System Shared," and the bandwidth is described as "System Dependent." This means the GPU does not have its own dedicated VRAM; instead, it uses a portion of the host system's main memory. For high-resolution workloads, this configuration is a significant constraint. The bandwidth available to the GPU is not a fixed number but varies with the system's memory architecture, such as the channel count and memory speed. Because the bus width is also shared, the effective throughput is limited by the system's memory controller. The lack of dedicated VRAM means that texture and framebuffer data must share the same memory pool as the operating system and applications, which can lead to contention. At high resolutions, the demand for memory bandwidth increases, and the system-dependent nature of this part means its performance will scale with the host platform's memory capabilities. The 8 ROPs and 24 TMUs are the only fixed graphics-side resources, and they are paired with a system-shared memory path that offers no fixed bandwidth figure. This design is typical for integrated parts, but it means the R8 M365DX is not well-suited for high-resolution gaming or memory-intensive compute tasks without a capable system memory configuration. The "System Dependent" bandwidth descriptor is a key limitation: there is no way to predict performance without knowing the host system's memory specifications, and the shared bus width introduces latency that dedicated VRAM would avoid.
