Radeon HD 6530D Review
Radeon HD 6530D is an integrated GPU in one of AMD's processors. It's part of the high-end class GPUS of this Series. It supports DirectX 11 and uses system memory and it only supports DDR3-1866 memory type.
The performance, is obviously, limited but demanding games should still be playable from low to medium settings (depending on the resolution + DirectX version used), while very demanding games might not run at all or might require very reduced settings. All in all, even though it supports DirectX 11, most likely games that use it are unplayable to the lowest settings or only playable on the lowest settings because every game out there using DirectX 11 is either demanding or very demanding.

I think that's the HD 6670 you're looking at. However, you could do better than "crossfiring" it with the APU graphics, depending on your budget ;D

Thanks for that Rays. But I've heard reviews that crossfiring it with a 6670 will actually downgrade the performance. Is this true?

It can run it, but it will run around 30 fps max at absolute minimum settings, I would recommend a discrete graphics card for planetside 2

buddy, you sure about your rig? cos the APU is more advanced that the trinity, and it's IGP should be more advanced than HD6530D. possibly you had similar rig like mine, the A6-Llano APU series.

the onboard graphics on this APU were pretty good to play least demanding games but for the demanding game, you should think twice because you will play it in low setting...i play the game that i wrote in my top games with nice fps :)
