About ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700
The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700 is a mobile graphics processor from AMD, built on the TeraScale architecture at a 65 nm process node. It integrates 390 million transistors on a 153 mm² die, yielding a transistor density of 2.5 million per square millimeter. The GPU belongs to the M7x generation (Mobility HD 2000 series) and was released on December 11, 2007, now marked as end-of-life. The data lists no benchmark scores, but the percentileVsAllGpus field is 50, indicating a median position in the database's overall performance distribution. The GPU is an MXM Module with an MXM-II bus interface, and its display outputs are portable device dependent.
Power and Cooling
The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700 has a thermal design power (TDP) of 35 W. This is a modest power draw, consistent with its mobile orientation. The GPU is delivered as an MXM Module, a standardized form factor for laptop graphics, and the slot width is likewise listed as "MXM Module". No power connectors are specified, which is typical for mobile parts where power is supplied through the motherboard's MXM slot rather than a discrete PCIe power cable. The suggested PSU field is null, so no external power supply recommendation is provided; in a laptop, the system's power delivery is handled by the motherboard and battery. The 35 W TDP suggests that the GPU can be cooled by a small heatpipe or a low-profile fan assembly, though the exact cooler design is not documented. The 65 nm process node contributes to the relatively low power consumption for its era, and the 390 million transistor count on a 153 mm² die indicates a moderate complexity. The absence of a separate power connector means that the GPU's power is entirely drawn from the MXM slot, which is a standard for mobile graphics modules.
Ray Tracing and Feature Set
The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700 does not include any dedicated ray tracing cores (RT cores) or tensor cores; both fields are null in the data. This is expected for a GPU from the late 2000s, as hardware-accelerated ray tracing and AI-based tensor operations were not yet mainstream. The feature set is defined by the TeraScale architecture, which supports DirectX 10.0 (10_0) and OpenGL 3.3. Vulkan is not supported. The GPU has 120 shading units, 8 texture mapping units (TMUs), and 4 raster output units (ROPs). The pixel rate is 2.600 GPixel/s, and the texture rate is 5.200 GTexel/s. The FP32 performance is 156.0 GFLOPS. The memory subsystem consists of 256 MB of GDDR3 memory on a 128-bit bus, with a memory clock of 700 MHz (1400 Mbps effective) yielding a bandwidth of 22.40 GB/s. The lack of RT and tensor cores means the GPU cannot accelerate ray-traced lighting or AI-based upscaling; it relies entirely on traditional rasterization. DirectX 10.0 support allows it to run early DirectX 10 titles, but it is not compatible with DirectX 11 or later. OpenGL 3.3 support is present, which covers a range of legacy applications. The absence of Vulkan limits its use in modern cross-platform engines that often use Vulkan for low-level access. The 256 MB memory capacity is small by today's standards, but it was adequate for the resolution and texture sizes of the 2007–2008 era.
How It Compares
The FACT PACK includes a "nearestRivals" field, but it is empty. Therefore, the database does not provide any direct rival GPU information for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700. The only comparative metric is the percentileVsAllGpus, which is 50. This indicates that the GPU sits at the median of the entire GPU performance distribution in the database. However, the average benchmark score is 0, and no benchmark results are listed, so this percentile is not derived from actual performance measurements. It may be an estimated or historical ranking. Without a nearestRivals list, it is impossible to state how the GPU performs relative to specific competitors. The predecessor and successor are listed as M6x and M8x, respectively, but no specifications or performance numbers are given for those parts. The GPU is part of the M7x generation, which suggests it is a mid-generation product, but no comparative analysis can be made. The data does not allow for any direct comparison to other GPUs, so the only statement is that it holds a median position in the overall database, but this is not supported by any concrete benchmark scores.

Who Should Consider It
The ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2700 is a low-power, end-of-life mobile GPU with a 35 W TDP, making it suitable for older laptops that require a basic graphics solution. With 256 MB of GDDR3 memory and a 128-bit bus, it can handle 2D desktop rendering, video playback, and light gaming from its era. The DirectX 10.0 support allows it to run early DirectX 10 games, but the 22.40 GB/s bandwidth and 156.0 GFLOPS FP32 performance are limited by modern standards. The 50th percentile rank suggests it is an average entry in the database, but without actual benchmark scores, its real-world performance is not quantified. The GPU lacks RT and tensor cores, so it cannot handle ray tracing or AI-accelerated features. It is best suited for users who need a functional display for legacy applications, or for those maintaining vintage laptops. The 256 MB memory capacity is a bottleneck for high-resolution textures, and the lack of Vulkan support restricts its use in modern cross-platform engines. Given its end-of-life status and the absence of any benchmark data, the GPU is not recommended for current gaming or compute workloads. It is a product of the late 2000s, and the data indicates it is only relevant for historical or basic display purposes. The 35 W TDP makes it power-efficient for battery-powered devices, but the overall feature set is outdated. For anyone considering this GPU, it is important to recognize that it is a legacy part with no modern API support and a limited memory footprint.
