Intel’s HD Graphics 500 is found in the low-end Apollo Lake chips and it’s based on the company’s Gen9 architecture, which is also found in Skylake and Kaby Lake processors. The GPU offers 12 EUs (Execution Units) clocked at up to 700 MHz, although the base frequency is 300 MHz. Since the GPU doesn’t rely on dedicated memory, it uses the available one installed on the system using a dual-channel 64-bit controller – DDR3L/LPDDR3-1866/LPDDR4-2400. Other notable features include the support for DirectX 12 API.
The low power consumption (6W TDP) of the whole SoC, for example, the Celeron N3350 or N3450, makes it a good fit for low-end systems with a thin-and-light design. The TDP can be altered and reduced to 4W, which will also affect performance.
The benchmark results are from Notebookcheck.
